Opel is planning a new B segment vehicle to be called the Opel Mokka according to internet rumours.
The model is set to compete with the Citroen DS3 and the latest reports regard the name.
We’re not quite sold on what sounds like a type of coffee for a car (apart from the spelling) but a DS3 competitor from Opel makes a lot of sense.
The Mokka name has already been filed to be trademarked and the car would be based on a shortened Opel Corsa platform, making this new B segment industrially viable for the company.
The small Opel should follow the DS3 trail by providing a distinctive design.
The Opel Mokka (and not Allegra as it is currently known internally) should be compact and original, with a daring interior.
It should be no longer than 380 cm and could go on sale as early as next year.
An electric Opel would be developed in the future, but it would play a very minor role in company sales.
