The new Scorpio, making its way to the stage
Overall body proportions appeared to be the same at the first glance
There were mixed reviews about how the new Scorpio looks, but then, it was time for a change
Side profile is almost identical, except for the bonnet dropping a little lower than before
Rear end gets a black and silver applique on the 5th door
Front end is now distinct, and will stand out between previous Scorpio versions
The Scorpio was first launched in 2002, and although the design is subjective, we are glad that things have changed noticeably
However, the new design does not look as butch as the previous generation did
Rear end is a like it or hate it type. Where some would love the silver and black applique, some will find it too cheesy.
From the back, the Scorpio still remains as a tall SUV
The silver and black applique looks much better on the black Scorpio than on any other colour
Only a silver Scorpio missing in this frame
Smoked out, projector headlamps with static bending technology get LED DRL eyebrows
LED DRLs are not a straight line, but curve on either ends
Cleaner look at the headlamp
New front grille with chrome inserts. It is probably the new grille which takes away from the butch looks.
Front skid plate is painted in silver
17″, 5-spoke alloy wheels
Fender bezel with engine branding and turn indicator
ORVMs are wide enough to show you what’s happening behind
Single windscreen washer nozzle
Blackened B, C and D pillars
Full size side-step in black
Scorpio branding on the side body moulding
Rear wheels get drum brakes
Closer look at the rear quarter glass
Roof rails and radio antenna at the front
LED tail lamps, night view
How the tail lamps look during daylight. It would have looked better without the excess chrome and the blue lens for reverse lamp. Scorpio etched on the tail lamp as well.
At the back, the new Scorpio drops the tail lamp extension running all the way till the roof
Closer look at the silver and black applique
Recessed number plate housing
Grab this while getting in the third row
Micro Hybrid badge at the back
Variant badge on the RHS of the bootlid
Chunky spoiler and cheesy decal on the rear windscreen
Centre-step to get into the third row seats
Spare wheel is mounted under the car
The 2.2L mHawk heart pumping 120 BHP and 280 Nm
Thick cladding under the bonnet and the air-intake plumbing
Hydraulic assist for the bonnet
All new dashboard, looks fantastic compared to the outgoing model
Dual tone light grey and black dashboard theme
Sideways, front interior view
4-spoke steering wheel with audio and cruise controls
RHS cruise control switches
Blue backlit instrument cluster with a host of tell-tale lights and a MID in the centre
On turning the ignition on, the instrument cluster does a test run. Notice the amount of reflection under direct sunlight.
MID shows digital display of fuel and temperature, two trip meters, average fuel efficiency, DTE, service reminder, current gear and the odometer
Centre console now looks modern, although it still has cheesy silver surround
Touchscreen head unit and AC control switches align well
Too much reflection on the 6″ head unit during the day
Climate control switches are made up of good quality plastic
Rear defogger, fuel cap release button, headlamp leveler and ORVM controls to the RHS of the steering wheel
AC vents get chrome surround
You can even shut the AC vent completely with the controller below
Glovebox is average size. Scorpio badge above.
LHS control stalk for the automatic wipers
RHS control stalk for the fog lamps and automatic headlamps
Driver seat gets height adjustment
Power window switches moved to the driver door pad
Rear view mirror and the bluetooth mic on the roof
Small storage spots next to the handbrake. The cut-out ahead is to accommodate the shift-on-fly switch.
You can switch off the micro-hybrid, start-stop function
Rear seatback angle is upright
Where Mahindra has worked hard on cosmetic changes, the seats quality is very poor. The fabric and the touch and feel is at par with budget hatchbacks.
2nd row door pad has plenty of storage spots
Rear AC vents and a storage bin below
Cabin lamps above the front row seats
Sideways facing third row seats
2 speakers mounted on the 5th door
