Vauxhall is set to replace the Meriva with the Crossland X crossover next year.

"Our customers’ expectations are changing, so the timing is perfect for an additional model in the Vauxhall range, which caters for a new breed of buyer," said Rory Harvey, Vauxhall’s chairman and managing director.

"The Crossland X will sit next to the Mokka X in our range, but their identities will be well-defined, and we anticipate that each will have its own following. More will be revealed at the start of next year, but we’re excited about the way Vauxhall’s crossover and SUV family is shaping up – and there’s more to come!"

The Mokka has found 120,000 buyers in the UK since its launch in 2012, its single biggest market in Europe.
