The Opel Mokka is a subcompact crossover SUV that has been produced by German automaker Opel since 2012. Sales began with the model year of 2013, at the end of 2012.{{cite web|title=2013 Vauxhall-Mokka |url=http://www.worldcarfans.com/112011039609/2013-vauxhall-mokka-and-buick-encore-revealed-video|work=WorldCarFans|access-date=10 January 2012|date=January 2012}} The first generation was developed by GM Korea as the U200 Chevrolet Trax. The facelifted Opel Mokka was marketed as the Mokka X, before reverting to Mokka for the second generation. It is also sold under the Vauxhall brand in the United Kingdom. The Buick Encore sold in North America and in China was also derived from the Trax but the lines diverged after Opel became part of Stellantis.
The second generation Mokka was launched in 2020 after a brief hiatus. It marked the switch to PSA platform, after the acquisition of Opel and Vauxhall brands in 2017.

The Mokka was positioned below the Antara and the Zafira Tourer in the Opel line-up, and was available in both front wheel and four wheel drive versions. The Mokka name derives from the small, round coffee beans of the Coffea Arabica variety. The Mokka A is based on GM's Gamma II platform.
The four wheel drive option was an intelligent AWD system that maintains 100% drive at the front wheels until the system detects slip, fast starts or tight cornering, in which case it can send up to 50% of torque to the rear wheels.{{cite web|last=Cropley|first=Steve|title=Vauxhall Mokka 1.4T 4x4|url=http://www.autocar.co.uk/cat-review/vauxhall/mokka/first-drives/vauxhall-mokka-14t-4x4|work=Autocar|access-date=24 June 2012|date=25 May 2012}}{{Dead link|date=April 2020 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}
Production and sales started in autumn of 2012. By February 2013, Opel had over 80,000 Mokka orders, and after two months 100,000 orders. By October 2014, over 300,000 Mokkas were ordered in Europe. In January 2016, Opel announced 500,000 firm orders for Mokka overall.{{cite web|url=http://media.opel.com/media/intl/en/opel/news.detail.html/content/Pages/news/intl/en/2016/opel/01-11-mokka-reaches-500000-orders.html |title=Opel Mokka Reaches 500,000 Orders |publisher=media.opel.com |date=11 January 2016 |access-date=11 January 2016}}
In 2019, Opel ceased production of the first generation Mokka as part of Opel/Vauxhall's full switch to Groupe PSA car platforms. The vehicle is still sold under the Buick marque.
The Chevrolet/Holden Trax are derived from the Mokka (and Encore), but are given unique sheet metal and trim.

Other petrol and diesel engines were offered later, including a {{convert|152|PS|kW bhp|0|abbr=on}} 1.4-litre direct injection turbo petrol engine with a controversial start/stop feature introduced for model year 2016.
Most engines are paired standard with the 5-speed (1.6-litre MPI petrol engine only) or 6-speed manual transmission, with stop/start engine technology beginning as early as model year 2014. A six speed automatic transmission having active select mode is optionally available for select petrol and diesel engines including the 1.4-litre MPI Turbo petrol and 1.7-litre CDTI diesel engines for both FWD and AWD models.
Start/Stop technology on vehicles with automatic transmissions first appeared with the introduction of the new, more powerful (112 kW; 150 hp), B14XFT 1.4-litre direct injection (DI) VVT Turbo petrol engine for model year 2016 and was incorporated on other select petrol and diesel engines paired with automatic transmissions by model year 2018.
In the market in Russia, a version with a 1.8-litre A18XER (Korean designation F18DA) petrol engine is available. The cars for the Russian market were assembled by Avtotor (Kaliningrad, Russia) and later by Unison (Minsk, Belarus) in 2015."[http://wroom.ru/en/cars/opel/mokka Opel Mokka]". Wroom.ru. In October 2014, for the model year of 2015, Opel introduced its all new "whisper diesel" 1.6-litre CDTI engine which replaced the 1.7-litre CDTI diesel.
