hi rj, i didn't say those qualities are missing, it's just that the innova outruns the scorpio on these counts.
and gto,check your specs man..(specifications, not your spectacles, he..he..he..
) not only is the scorpio quicker to 100 kmph than the innova by 1 sec, it's also quicker to 110 (by 0.4 sec), and 120 (by 0.3 sec). only in 0-130 times does the innova post a lead of 0.48 secs. also, the scorpio has a higher top speed of 152 kmph as compared to 146 kmph of the innova.
the acceleratoin figures are:
0-100:
0-110:
0-120:
0-130:
scorpio:-16.53 - 20.54 - 25.64 - 32.48
innova:-17.50 - 20.96 - 25.98 - 32.03
so, as you can see, the innova DOESN'T
leave scorpio for dead after 120 kmph!!!!
also, the scorpio has 284 nm of torque as compared to 205 nm of the innova;and,again, scorpio has a 13 bhp lead, with 115 bhp as compared to 102 bhp.
the torque and power advantage of the scorpio might not be clear from the acceleration figures, but just check out the roll-on figures:
scorpio: innova:
20-40 in 4th: 7.56sec 8.48sec
40-100 in 4th: 17.07sec 19.50sec
as you can see, the 40 - 100 roll-on sees the scorpio take a whopping 2.43 second lead. and don't forget, scorpio has a handicap of 290 kgs over the innova (2wd version, 4wd increases the handicap to 390 kgs);
which reminds me, scorpio comes with a 4wd option; the innova doesn't.
like i said before, the scorpio has a definite advantage over the innova, only in the powertrain dept . rest lie with the toyota.
even though this toyota might score over the mighty mahindra in terms of practicality, the scorpio leaves the battlefield beaten, not battered, and gracefully.
