Boot/interior
The Kia Stonic doesn't skimp on luggage space, offering a commendable 352 liters of boot capacity, surpassing the Opel Mokka’s range between 310 to 350 liters depending on the chosen variant. The Stonic maintains its lead with rear seats down, offering a full utilization space to the roof of 1155 liters, contrasting with Mokka's 1105 liters. Passenger accommodation is an equal match for both, each featuring 5 seats and Isofix standards for child seat attachments. Thus, the Stonic edges its rival with marginally more cargo room for those extra suitcases or shopping bags.

Engines/drivetrain
Under the hood lies a diverse mix of mechanics. The Stonic's gears span from 5 to 7 with the 1.0 T-GDI Vision DCT7 at the summit, while Mokka offers a broader range from a single gear in its electric model to 8 gears in the turbocharged petrol variant. Both models offer 3 to 4 cylinders but it's the Mokka that edges ahead in max power, delivering up to 115 kW compared to Stonic's 100 kW peak. In the sprint from 0-100 km/h, the electric Mokka zips ahead at 9.0 seconds at its fastest, besting the Stonic's quickest 10.3 seconds. Nonetheless, the Stonic pulls its weight in torque, with the diesel variant twisting up to 280 Nm against Mokka's 260 Nm, projecting a muscular low-end thrust. The Mokka's efficiency shines in the maximum speed category, where its 204 km/h leaves the Stonic trailing at a maximum of 185 km/h. This makes the Mokka’s line-up slightly broader and versatile, albeit the Stonic offers its own charms in torque and gear selection diversity.

Consumption/ecology
The fuel tank in the Kia Stonic holds 45 liters, giving it more mileage between fill-ups than the Opel Mokka, which offers between 41 to 44 liters based on the model. In the realm of efficiency, the Stonic’s engines range from a minimum of 4.0 l/100km to a maximum of 6.4 l/100km combined consumption, offering a decent spectrum of fuel-sipping options. CO2 emissions under WLTP testing are a critical consideration, and the Mokka produces between 115 to 133 g/km, positioning itself as a greener machine when juxtaposed to Stonic's 128 to 152 g/km. This makes the Mokka a choice for the eco-conscious without compromising much on range or efficiency.

Weight/towing
Weighing the options, the Kia Stonic's scales tip between 1145 and 1270 kg, whereas the Opel Mokka shows a heftier range from 1270 to 1632 kg, attributable perhaps to its battery packs in the electric variation. The Mokka can pull more weight when braking is required, being rated to tow up to 1200 kg, exceeding the Stonic's 1110 kg max braked trailer capability. However, the Stonic fights back with a winning unbraked trailer capacity of 450 kg and surpasses the Mokka’s 620-640 kg range. Roof loading and towbar load reflect a mixed bag of capabilities, with the Mokka bearing more on the roof, while the Stonic can take on more at the hitch. In the balance, each plays to different strengths in hauling and carrying duties.

Offroad
While neither the Kia Stonic nor the Opel Mokka are thoroughbred rock crawlers, their off-road capabilities are not entirely dismissible. Approach and departure angles are where you understand how each handles the less beaten path. The Stonic's range lies between 13.8 degrees and 30.4 degrees respectively, while specific figures for Mokka are absent, leaving us to speculate from visual impressions and general statistics. These measurements suggest the Stonic may have the edge in gradients it can tackle without scraping its underbelly, albeit this remains an area more hinted at than openly declared for the Mokka.

EV
When wandering into the electrically powered terrains, the Opel Mokka reveals its silent strength with a range of 335 to 407 km based on WLTP standards, all while offering a usable battery capacity of 51 kWh. A full electric version of the Kia Stonic isn't on the cards at present, allowing the Mokka some uncontested territory where it can flaunt its emission-free range prowess and substantial onboard stored energy. This alone might sway the environmentally-minded driver squarely into the Opel camp.
