Scorpio mHawk - Cool SUV to drive.

I had been planning to buy a Scorpio for last 2 years and in fact I had booked it once in 2005 and then cancelled it. My two best friends drive scorpio. One of them drives the old CRDE model and the other new SLX (with bonnet scoop). Both of them love their scorpios.

Finally decided to buy one and fortunately the MHawk launched just in time. Yes, that's right .. fortunately !!

I booked the car even without taking a test drive, reason simple - I trust Mahindra, love the scorpio, new advanced engine and other cool features, and not to miss better fuel efficiency. I read a lot of reviews and was hesitant to buy the MHawk for a price of 10.5 initially, however now I think it is well worth it.

To be specific about the pleasure of driving

1. Parking sensors work great

2. Have not switched on the headlights till now (have been driving for last one week) - sensor headlights

3. ABS

4. Engine feels powerful (my two friends who own Scorpios fell in love with this one and told me that this is much better than their own)

5. Quiet - Sounds like a petrol car

6. I thought cruise control was a waste but actually it is not that bad.. I have used it couple of times and works fine and is kinda cool

Having said all that, I wished they had given better music system, electronic side view mirrors, air bags etc..

Anyway.. I will be able to confirm the mileage in the next couple of days once I refill again.

All those planning to buy.. I would say 'Go for it'

Cheers

Sumit
