New Mahindra Scorpio-N - Rohit Shetty’s New Favourite? | First Drive Review | PowerDrift

The new Mahindra Scorpio-N seems to have all the makings of being the next Singham….Ummm, we mean Blockbuster. It's got a choice of powerful, torquey engines, good gearboxes, RWD and AWD drivetrains, enough bells and whistles to keep you comfy and entertained, and looks rugged enough to make the cars in front of you move aside. So is the fourth-gen Scorpio Mahindra’s hattrick? Cyrus Dhabhar finds out in this first drive review.

Hey #PDArmy, would you pick the petrol, or the diesel Scorpio-N? Comment below, and hit that Like button for more!

Wish M&M make a truck version of this Scorpio - N

[@Abhishek4893]

quick debate: xuv700? or scorpio N? and why?

[@shubhamkaushal3675]

Scorpio if you want rugid suv and less luxury and bossed looked on road xuv700 if u want more pleasure driving and tech nd a class look on road

[@fadilrahman2157]

XUV 7OO and ScorpioN cater to 2 different set of customers... One who is looking for a big, brawny, body on frame SUV with hardcore off road abilities, a proper 4×4 setup will go for ScorpioN. One who is hunting for a smart, sharp looking highway cruiser, dynamic abilities, body control, brilliant ride quality, premiumness with a fair bit of offroading will pick up the XUV 7OO. Ride quality, body control, performance (both gasoline nd diesel), stability is better in XUV 7OO because it is a Monocoque contruction. But it can't even come close to ScorpioN when off the road and over bad roads, the latter feels indestructible.

[@kiranm6749]

Cheap version ... 😂😂😂😂Kelly from the block 😂😂😂 man ur funny

[@AmgK.]

Scorpion sounds so much better though!😝💀🔥

[@jayeshmv]

They should have simply made it a 5 seater, 7 seater is already available in XUV700. A vehicle which is targeted for spirited driving and enthusiasts didn't really need 7 seats. Also don't see the logic behind the sideway opening at the back, even the last row is front facing.

If they had made 5 seater then it ll not be lined up under scorpio series

Fantastic looking iteration of a legendary car. Love it. Great engine options from an Indian manufacturer is cherry on the cake. Mahindra is the new hot favourite of Indian car buyers.

[@ithinkitworks]

Loved the car! The boot is extremely disappointing. The rear seat doesn't split, no AC vents and lack of luggage space.

[@splitsecondblackswan]

You have left a lot of people confused

[@StanDaManReviews]

Scorpio looks beautiful and is powerful enough. You did not mention if it has Sun roof and ventilated seats.

[@powerdriftofficial]

It definitely does look quite imposing. Yay on the sunroof, nay on the ventilated seats.

[@vabrocks]

I miss the space available in Xylo especially in 3rd raw. Mahindra hasn't been able to create the same space in any car afterwards.

[@harrysingh199]

true we own a xylo since its inception and that 3rd row very usable for the adults too. For some time we have been trying out cars to replace our ageing xylo but none comes close to the 3rd row seating space, and we do need that space.

I'll say this. I love cars like the Scorpio, because it is built for a purpose. Absolutely hate CUVs and crossovers. Prefer sedans over it.

[@saheb1098]

Well said bro. Me to.

[@mush95ahd]

For the majority of the Indian households, the crossovers and CUVs get the job done. Hence they sell more. The styling, features and the image car offers are important too. A lot of people are not looking for the utilitarian image Scorpio offers.

It is really overpriced , 4x4 auto diesel would cost more than 26 lakh in Banglore which is really expensive for this car

[@fadilrahman2157]

Nope, not at all... Top model Z8L 4×4 Diesel Automatic will cost approx. 27.25Lakhs On Road Mumbai. Can't term it as aggressively priced but still, it is able to justify the price tag.

[@omkar8191]

Scorpio n looks is stunning , handsome hunk 💕💕💕💜

[@rajivpalshikar3174]

The sheer leap of visualizing, executing and delivering a complete all round package speaks volumes about M n M foundation and relentless belief. Yes they tend to lean a lot in terms of design detailing on a lot already proven and approved out there, but that is all a part of the last day of a graduation thesis or deliverables we are a part of, where all the time is none of it and one has to pick a feather or two from his/ her immediate environment. But this Scorpio-N truly is now in a league of its own.

[@turbocharged962]

Someone please teach mahindra to fix 2nd row and 3rd row seats on rails. Rail adjustment could have made 3rd row seat more usable.

[@Anjuraj]

Mahindra should get the rear parking camera changed. for such an awesome vehicle this camera no where does justice . The quality is really bad and poor and even the imaging is choppy. vehicle ticks all boxes but this is a let down to have such downgraded camera.

Powerdrift - How does it ride at highway speeds? Is it bouncy like Thar, and does the steering weigh up well

[@CyrusDhabhar]

No, it doesn’t feel bouncy. And yes, the steering weighs up well. More so on the diesel.

[@sreejiththekkummuri1547]

Overall tail end looks boring..and van like..! Compared to all the SUV you see towards the front..! Clean lines and stance..! Atleast this time Mahindra stepped away from overdoing details hehe..! thanks to that..! They could have upswept the rear bottom end..to give it a better stance..! But no...they choose...a Van...! No comments on tail light, it look like many other cars...but its okay..

[@mahijeetsinghpuri4326]

It's softish. Lost its butch appeal Back is very disappointing, doesn't go with the design. Car looks very narrow from behind . Just keep this car as a five seater,May be as an option. This will reduce the car price also. Interiors are okayyy Nothing much is happening inside and even outside. Rest all will depend on the road presence of car .

[@srcob]

I'm bit disappointed why the hell Mahindra use the detuned version of XUV 700 engine in this car....they can simply retain that gem in this car also...

[@anneakhil5331]

well buy the car remove all those rear seat mass it will reduce some weight get the 6 seater so you will have only 4 seats in the car it can save some weight ...and the basic principal weight ⬇️ = mileage ⬆️ who knows with less weight on back even the dynamics may improve but damm the nose dive is freaking insane feels like a maybach roll 🤣🤣🤣

In big cities you are living with small families wife and one or two children. But in our rural or urban area we are living with a joint family and friends so we must need 7seater vehicle. If you need not 7 seater you can remove and use it why should you suggested to 5 seater version
