Many improvements has been made by Mahindra in Mighty Muscular Scorpio
15 years ago | Suresh Chettil
Over the years, Mahindra has kept improving scorpio with every new variant and the 2009 mighty muscular is by far the best. There are lot of new additions like new engine which is more powerful, ABS, 2DIN Audio system, better suspension, etc etc.

The earlier 2.6 crde engine has been discontinued and has been replaced by 2.2 mHawk. It is much better and quieter than the earlier one. The seats are very comfortable and body hugging. The 2 DIN stereo looks nice and makes the dashboard look even more plush. All together, the interiors are very upscale. Though Mahindra can very well afford to improve the quality of plastics.

I was given the option of VLX, SLE and LX. All are with mHawk engine. I chose SLE with ABS. Features like rain sensors, auto headlamps are not available in SLE but I can do without them.

Pricing of scorpio is its strongest point. it is very competitive. The LX is 7.2 lakhs and SLE is 8.2 lakhs. It is comparable to c-segment categories like SX4, Honda City and Hyundai
Verna. This will make sedan buyers also consider this value for money SUV.

Compared to competitors like Innova and Safari, scorpio has much better road presence and durability. Scorpio is much more reliable on rough roads. Safety wise, Mighty Muscular Scorpio is great improvement because now it has ABS in middle category as well.

Scorpio has seen seven years of back to back success and has a lot in it to continue for a long time.

It is good a vehicle for those who cannot afford to spent more money
13 years ago | Charles Thomas

Exterior Looks good as compare to other cheap SUV's.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Front dash board is unattaractive, filled with all plastic parts, centre console is very poor quality, location of the power window control switches is not good, front seats are very poor quality also back seats. To close the rear door you have to put additional energy. I foud that as per the service people I have to keep one of the other front door open before close the rear door. Crazy system. Vehicle is too shaky an high speed/highways. Uncomfortable to sit in the back seat. Angle of inclination of the back seat is not suitable for long drive.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance is good, fuel economy is good, gearbox not smooth, clutch need lot of preassure.

Ride Quality & Handling Very poor, shaky on highways, very bad for poth holed roads.

Final Words It is good a vehicle for those who cannot afford to spent more money.

Areas of improvement Suspension, balancing of the vehicle, front dash board, quality of th seats.
Exterior looksPoor suspension, shaky vehicle, bad looking plastic dash board, quality of the seat is very poor
