Opel reveals new Mokka Pure Panel Cockpit

This is a sketch of the interior of the new-generation Opel Mokka hinting at the new interior design direction the Opel brand will take for future models, writes Trish Whelan.

The sketches have been released by Opel Design Vice President, Mark Adams and his team ahead of the official unveiling of the new-generation Mokka scheduled for later this month.

The new Pure Panel is a high-tech, digital cockpit that is minimalist and uncluttered.

"Large displays seamlessly integrated into one horizontal information format, a minimal number of physical controls and clear detoxed digital technologies and the most important information for the driver, such as driver safety systems information and the battery range of the new electric Mokka, without any irritating visual stimuli,” explains Mark Adams.

“A minimal number of controls and buttons remain to offer the right balance between digitalisation and intuitive operation of some driver functions, without needing to navigate into sub-menus. The Pure Panel in the Mokka impressively shows how Opel uses innovative technologies to make life easier for customers.”

It will be available from launch with an electric powertrain, together with petrol and diesel engines, a testament to Opel’s commitment to electrifying its entire range by 2024. Unveiled to date only in camouflaged form, the muscular new Mokka clearly hints at a new exterior and interior Opel design philosophy.

The all-new Mokka is set to enter production in the final quarter of this year and will arrive in Ireland in early 2021.
