The Mahindra Scorpio - Team-BHP

Does anybody own a Scorpio here? Is the Scorpio more comfortable to ride in on bad roads compared to cars like the Cielo?

Hey Ashmole,

Well, i have only had the chance to drive and be driven in a deisel scorpio on a good metalled road. I literally felt sick in the back(middle) row of seats. The suspension was just way too hard and i was hitting my head on the smallest of bumps on the road. Maybe the car wasnt loaded to its capacity (had only 4 people in it), maybe the tire pressure was too high, and maybe this has been sorted out by mahindra on newer models (because this was when it had just been launched).

Hi Ashmole,
Well, i hear a lot about new scorpio ! My colleague has new scorpio and he claims the M&M has done a very good job after initial release. I also keep hearing about it new 4X4 model which is yet to be released and presently is done on request. I was also planning for this, but I always take backseat as this engine is made from indian technology with foreign collabaration. I also hear in th forum that Scoripio is planning to come with CRDI engine. If that come out soon, i might consider. Also compared all the SUV available in the india, Scorpio has its own pride because of its compactness. I wish Honda gets the Rev to india soon.

Cheers !
