The Vauxhall Mokka Electric shares its platform with the Peugeot e-2008 and Opel Mokka-e. It's a sensible, practical compact crossover designed for urban and suburban driving rather than motorway touring — the 170-mile real-world range and 100kW DC charging reflect this positioning. Vauxhall's dealer network and fleet relationships make it a common sight in business fleets.
Running costs: Vauxhall Mokka Electric
3.5 miles per kWh gives 7.5p per mile on the current home tariff. Against a petrol Mokka 1.2 Turbo at 42 MPG (16.6p per mile at July 2026 prices), the electric version saves approximately £920 per year at 10,000 miles. For a compact crossover used predominantly for urban and short motorway runs, the economics work well — though the shorter range means less margin for changing plans.
