    DRIVING:
    Its my mate since ages

    Exterior Exterior is rough and sturdy and have a macho look,this is where the scorpio takes away MAXIMUM marks,the chequered flag design on the bonnet and the body adds to its beauty,the bonnet scoop also makes scorpio mighty and muscular,but the beading and GUM used for the front windshield is of low quality and it often troubles you,the PAINT quality is pretty decent and the roof antenna is also of poor quality.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The Dash board is not very impressive,and the plastics used for them are of cheap quality,the GLOVE BOX only works for some months and all the other time it will be open,this is also because of cheap materials used,compared to TATA Safari the glove box is a waste,the power window switches in LX model comes between the driver and passanger for all 4 windows and thats too irritating,there is lots of space but you cant keep a bottle in a safe place, its like a playground,no organisation of space, the front seats are comfortable for a long drive otherwise the middle row you will be rolling your body all over,its good not to say about the back BABY seats. They are HORRIBLE. You cant sit for 50 Kms in the back seats.

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Here the scorpio scores more,the engine performance is good,pretty good,gear box and gear shifting is decent but its not like a feeling of CAR..its OK for an SUV,sound and vibration of the engine is not there,Fuel economy is 10 to 11,but the bad thing is its got HIGH TORQUE which results in difficulty to drive in city,you must be pressing the clutch always otherwise it will be moving,The A.C is pretty good and has a good cooling efficiency in sharp summers,the only problem is of clutch which becomes hard after 40000 kms.

    Ride Quality & Handling This is HORRIBLE,though the Scorpio runs like a beast you are not sure when the vehicle will ROLL,the performance of the Engine ROCKS but the Body ROLLS,it is uncontrollable in loose soil,must drive carefully or else there will be ROLL.

    Final Words Good vehicle for a responsible driver. Not for others.

    Areas of improvement ROLL ROLL ROLL.

    Mahindra Scorpio has the best looks any other economic SUV in INDIA,it ROCKSPoor interior design,very cheap plastics used for dash and interiors,BODY ROLL...........
