SCORPIO COMES OF AGE

MAHINDRA HAS TAKEN THE VERY BASICS OF THE 20-YEAR-OLD SCORPIO TO CREATE THE SCORPIO-N AND TAKE ITS LEGACY INTO AN AGE OF ELECTRONICS AND CONNECTIVITY

SCORPIO COMES OF AGE

The Scorpio is one of the biggest success stories of the Indian automotive industry, and provides a practical and affordable means of transport to lakhs of families with over eight lakh vehicles sold since its launch in 2002. From then till now, a lot has changed on the Scorpio. What has remained the same are the body-on-frame construction, the longitudinal engine layout with primary-driven wheels being at the rear, the seating for up to seven passengers, the sideways-opening back door and the boxy shape.

The Scorpio-N is in essence an all-new car. On the outside, with its pleasing proportions is a muscular stance, dual rectangular LED headlamps upfront and an iteration of another iconic tail-lamp signature at the rear. There are many small elements that point to a contemporary design including the trendy 17- and 18-inch alloys, the chrome both above and below the bonnet-a strip that connects the headlamps in the front on top of the grille and the skid plate below.
