Trending Questions on Mahindra Scorpio N - Answered by Autocar Experts
I want to buy a new SUV that offers the fuel efficiency and ownership experience of a hybrid like the Hyryder, the safety and road presence of the Scorpio N, and the comfort of a 6-seater automatic petrol like the XUV700. I also want to keep this new car for around 10-12 years. Please suggest a model that can meet most of these requirements.
My monthly driving is around 2,000 km, with 80 percent city usage and 20 percent highway. I want to purchase an SUV for a family of four. I am looking for an economical yet powerful car. I am confused between the Creta SX(O) Diesel AT, Seltos GT Diesel AT, XUV700 AX5 Diesel AT, and Scorpio Z8. Please guide me on what I should buy, as I want a performance-driven car and prefer a diesel over a petrol. The car should be strong in power and handling, and also be feature- and tech-loaded.
I’m looking for real-world feedback on the XUV700 vs the Scorpio N. Which one offers better overall value for money and long-term reliability? How different are the engine refinement and performance between the two? In terms of safety and build quality, which SUV feels more confidence-inspiring on the road? Finally, how do their actual fuel-efficiency figures compare in city and highway conditions?
The Mahindra Scorpio N is a ladder-frame SUV, meaning the body is bolted onto a chassis. This construction makes it more hardy, however, the Scorpio N will have that typical body sway that is associated with chassis vehicles.
The ride is thus not settled over undulations, and this is where the Mahindra XUV700 is better. It utilizes a monocoque construction, which is where all components are bolted to the body shell itself. This gives the car overall better rigidity, resulting in better ride and handling, something that is noticeably better with the XUV700.
Engine refinement and performance are similar, given that the two SUVs share the same powertrains. However, real-world efficiency is better with the XUV700 as it has active safety. Also, the XUV700 has better and more stable handling at higher speeds.
I want to buy a high-seated 7-seater car like the Scorpio N (diesel manual). My daily running is around 50 km, but my family wants to buy an EV for the 50 km per day drive. Since we have mixed opinions, what would be the better decision, an EV or a diesel?
Please suggest a car for me to buy within the next four months. I want a large, attractive SUV with strong road presence, a usable third row, good power, generous features, and excellent ride comfort. It should be rugged and off-road friendly without being a full-blown off-roader. I own a firm and want a vehicle that commands respect; I prefer relaxed driving and do not require explosive acceleration. My budget is ₹25-28 lakh, and I plan to keep the car for five years before selling it.
For your requirements, the Mahindra Scorpio-N 2WD Diesel 2.2L Turbo Automatic 7 STR Carbon Edition will be the best choice. It has more power and torque than the Tata Safari. It also has a more refined and stronger-performing diesel engine, a smooth-shifting automatic gearbox, and the Carbon edition has an aggressive look as well.
It has one of the strongest road presence in India and is very well off the tarmac and over bad roads.
I work in real estate and currently drive a Mahindra TUV300 T8 (2016). It has been reliable and gives me around 17 kmpl. I drive 100-150 km daily and need something rugged and bad-road friendly. I often take rough paths, and because of the lack of a 4x4, I got stuck on multiple occasions. What should I upgrade to?
Hello, I have owned a Nexa XL6 for the past five years, and it has been very comfortable. Now it’s time to change the car. I’m looking for a 7-seater and have shortlisted the Scorpio N, XUV700, and Tata Safari. Please share your expert recommendation. Thanks.
I'm looking to replace my 2017 Duster. I do a lot of highway driving, city runs, and around 10–15% off-road/poor roads. I need space for four people, luggage, and two Labradors. What should I buy?
It would depend on your budget and how far you are willing to stretch it, but good options would be the Mahindra Thar Roxx and Mahindra Scorpio N (5 seater). They're both tough, ladder frame SUVs with strong petrol and diesel engines, that are great on the highway and perfect for rough roads.
With spacious cabins and big luggage areas with split-folding rear seats, your dogs will have enough room and easy access. Of the two, we would recommend the Thar Roxx as it is the newer of the two and, as such, is better equipped, and slightly better engineered. Plus, its split-opening tailgate feature could be a nice way to give your dogs some ventilation while still being safely inside the car.
Planning to buy Scorpio. Which one is better, S11 Classic or Scorpio N? Generally, I drive on highways, and in the city, I either use a cab or my Ford Figo 5-seater. Now planning to have a 7-seater.
I want to buy a new car (five- or seven-seater) as my second vehicle. I live in an urban city and commute about 50 km daily. My budget is under ₹20 lakh. I want an automatic gearbox, 4-star (or above) safety, and good comfort. I’ve shortlisted the Mahindra Scorpio N, Suzuki XL6, Maruti Fronx, and Hyundai Verna. Which should I choose?
Looking at your criteria of safety and comfort, along with an automatic transmission, we would recommend the Maruti Suzuki Victoris. However, if you want a seven-seater, then the Scorpio N would suit you better of the two that you have shortlisted, as the XL6 does not meet your crash rating bar. However, bear in mind the ride of the Scorpio is a bit jittery and won't be as plush as the XL6 or Victoris.
