Go Drive It!

Vauxhall’s Mokka X may be a facelifted model but it launches a new range of SUVs and crossovers. Andy Russell drives.

TWO things struck me while driving Vauxhall’s new Mokka X. The first is how many of them you see – the UK is the biggest market in Europe for the original Mokka with more than 120,000 sold since 2012 – and the second is that the new model doesn’t look that different to the old. Perhaps I had been expecting more of an X factor for this sport utility vehicle with its ‘X’ tag, which introduces Vauxhall’s new range. The Mokka X is being joined this year by Crossland X and Grandland X crossovers.

SO WHAT’S NEW?
