I never thought that despite of its big size, scorpio is still fun to drive in city

Hi friends...i bought mahindra scorpio 2.2 mhawk vlx last week only and till now i have travelled more than 1000 kms in it and one thing i have to say is that the ride quality of scorpio has improved very much,i mean its very comfortable in the middle row but the last seat row is not that much good..the a.c of the scorpio is very very powerful as it hardly takes 30 secs to give you cold chills...adding to it are the automatic features which new mhawk comes with,personally i liked the automatic engine cut off feature.......i am getting an mileage of around 12kmpl in delhi traffic and on highways i clocked 15kmpl but i never crossed the 80km speed limit on highway...i think buying a scorpio is really an good idea plus you gets road respect which you won't get in innova(no offense to innova lovers).

thanks

Its been one month now that i am driving around town in my new scorpio vlx and now i am facing the first problem with it:-The micro hybrid button which is supposed to switch off the engine while the suv is in neutral position had stopped working.I think out of 10 times i tried it,it only responded max 4 times.Also i will like to tell my friends who are in mood of buying the scorpio is that the fit and finish of this suv is very pathetic,i mean to say the plastic which is used on outside of the suv is so bad fitted that you can see the gapes in it very clearly.Similarly the cover of the glove box in the dashboard won't close until you devote 2-3 minutes in closing it because it so badly fitted in the dashboard..

The good thing is that i am getting a mileage of 12kmpl in city and 15kmpl on the highway apart from the pleasure of crushing bad pot holes and fear on the faces of drivers of small cars.I have also installed the gps security navigator in my suv which helps me track my car any where in india and i can also switch off the ignition from my mobile through a single sms and the engine would simply die untill i will send one more sms to start it up.

powerfull engine , good ride quality and lot of road respectinteriors very old and lacks the character to match this powerfull bull
