Opel Vice President Design Mark Adams is a Eurostar 2021

Mark Adams was honoured for the progressive design of the new Opel Mokka. Automotive News Europe: “With the Mokka small SUV, Mark Adams and his team began a radical design overhaul at Opel. In unveiling the Mokka, the company described it as a real head-turner that will change the perception of the brand.”

This is the 24th time that leaders have been awarded Eurostars. “The 17 people who we honour this year have overcome unprecedented professional and personal challenges during and after the pandemic. The flexibility and talent they have shown during such difficult times is remarkable. They are helping to lead the auto industry into a new era in a profitable way,” Automotive News Europe Associate Publisher & Editor Luca Ciferri said.

Breath-taking design: Mokka first with Opel-Vizor and fully digital Pure Panel

The new Opel Mokka impresses with perfect proportions and precision down to the smallest detail. Short overhangs and a wide stance are typical of the bold, pure appearance of the 4.15-metre long five-seater. The most striking feature of the front view is the unmistakable Opel Vizor. As with a full-face helmet, a protective visor covers the new Opel face, seamlessly integrating the vehicle grille, the LED headlights and the newly designed Opel Blitz emblem in one element. The model name appears for the first time at the centre of the tailgate with a specially designed font that forms the word “Mokka” in a technical, flowing, lively way.

The interior also reflects the clear philosophy. The new Opel Pure Panel integrates two widescreen displays and focuses on the essentials. The Pure Panel is a unique design. It is clearly structured and understandable at a glance. The new Mokka is available as an all-electric model variant as well as with combustion engines.
