Opel presents the Mokka Electric Coffee with unique barista setup for International Coffee Day. Special edition SUV remains one-off, unlike the new Mokka GSE.

Opel chose an unusual way to celebrate International Coffee Day. The compact SUV Mokka Electric appeared in a unique one-off version called “Coffee”, turning the car into a full-fledged barista station. In the trunk, instead of luggage, engineers fitted two coffee machines—one for ground beans and one for pods—alongside a milk steamer, grinder, knock box, and fridge. This setup transforms any roadside stop into a proper coffee break. Still, Opel confirmed that the car will remain a singular showpiece.

At the same time, Opel is promoting its performance newcomer, the Mokka GSE. Premiered at the IAA Mobility show in Munich, it immediately drew attention as Opel’s fastest electric production model. With 207 kW (281 hp) and a top speed of 200 km/h, it is positioned very differently from the leisurely “Coffee.” Pricing in Germany starts at €47,300, while the standard Mokka Electric begins around €36,740.

What makes the Coffee edition stand out even more is the absence of direct rivals. The closest example is the Vauxhall MOKKA COFFE-E, a one-off British Stellantis project based on the same concept. Beyond that, the Opel show car has no real counterpart in the segment, serving more as a playful demonstration of possibilities than a market-bound idea.

Broader strategy also plays a role here. Opel previously pledged to go fully electric by 2028, but has since shifted toward a multi-energy approach—offering EVs, hybrids, and combustion engines depending on customer demand. This is already visible in the Mokka range, which combines petrol versions with mild hybrid systems and the fully electric variant. Analysts link the next steps to the STLA Small platform, set to enter production in 2026 at Stellantis plants in Spain and Italy. While it has not been officially confirmed that the Mokka will be the first to switch, industry discussions suggest this is a likely path forward.
