Vauxhall Mokka-e 2021 Review: Does rugged electric crossover tick the practicality boxes? | WhichEV

[@MrGagason]

good review. like the close ups and detailed descriptions of touchpoints.

[@WhichEV]

Thanks! We try to make our reviews as useful as possible. Glad to see it's appreciated!

[@theeyewearfactory9341]

There is actually a button by the rear number plate to open the boot, you do not have to use the key fob.

[@WhichEV]

Yes, we realise that now after trying a DS3 that has the same system (and is probably the same underlying car). Unfortunately this was after we'd edited the video.

[@sputnick4482]

Good car review - detailed, enjoyable and fun. Imagine what a game-changer (literally) the "button to teleport children'" would be if it worked ;-) Excellent !

[@WhichEV]

Thanks! Really could have done with that back in the day. Thankfully they teleport themselves mostly these days... ;^>

[@KarlMagnusEriksson]

You have a button just above the number plate to open the boot. It's a strange placement but you don't need the key to open the boot.

[@WhichEV]

Yes, we've realised that now - the DS3 has the same thing. Very stupid place to put it. We had a DS3 delivered recently and even the delivery guy didn't realise that button was there.

[@whynotgaming8991]

@@WhichEV yes it may be stupid place to put it but your statement that there is not a way to open the boot beside with the key is completely wrong and misleading. Yes it might be late when you realised it but as i said, it's misleading.

There is the additional equipment K29 On board battery charger 11 kw three phase. Do I need it? I do not live in a house and I do not have three phase. I've been told that thanks to this integrated charger battery charges faster everywhere. Is that so?

[@WhichEV]

If you find an AC public charger that is over 7kW you can take advantage of that. There are a number of 22kW AC ones in the UK, mainly aimed at Zoe owners.

The boot manual release button is situated just above the top edge of the registration plate…

[@WhichEV]

Yes, quite a few people have mentioned that!

[@Sb99992]

Almost parked ok this time!

[@WhichEV]

Unlikely.

[@mathew3974]

Sorry, but this is such a poor review. You don't even know where the button is to open the boot the conventional way (just above the number plate) or what some of the buttons and nobs do inside. In some car reviews, you watch and just know the reviewer is hellbent on picking 'faults' with the car based on predetermined personal opinion when a more objective review process would be better - just because you don't like the car doesn't mean everyone else will dislike it too. On the plus side, some of the camera work and editing was nice.

[@WhichEV]

But... we do generally like the car.

[@Cyberwest]

The button is in the same place as a DS3. Generally considered to be a dumb place to put a boot release.

[@patrickh7368]

The tailgate openeruper handle is hidden above the number plate. Very “French” and prone to getting filthy in our groovy winters 🙄

[@WhichEV]

We realised that after shooting the video... because it's the same as the DS3, which we suspect this car has a lot in common with.

[@whynotgaming8991]

@@WhichEV you should correct your statement in the video then. it is misleading to people that just watched the video and not read the comment. You can simply add a note on the video and no need to reshoot it. As it is right now you are aware that you made a wrong statement about the car that you cannot open the boot without the key which is as you are aware not true.

@@whynotgaming8991 You can't redo KZbin videos. You have to delete the old one and upload a new one, and lose all the views. It's not a good system.
