BANNED | ![]() Came across an online post for a mHawk Scorpio sale. This was a 2007 model and thus got me wondering. Got my answer on the official Mahindra Scorpio website. It was indeed launched in November 2007. More details and complete timeline here Scorpio Vehicle Evolution | Mahindra Automobile | Mid Size Vehicle | Mahindra India |

| ![]() Supposed to buy Scorpio AT in 2010 but due to parking constraints at flat and parking constraints in chennai for big vehicles, went to i20 AT and has been 2 years now. After seeing skyrocket petrol and want to have a real SUV, thinking of going for Used Scorpio AT. Budget between 9-10 L. I am not planning to go for manual transmission as I got used to AT and comfortable with it in the City. TIA |

The Scorpio AT is a decent VFM SUV with good road presence and ease of driving in the city. Take a test drive and decide, however, it will cost you more than your budget of INR 10.00lac in Chennai and elsewhere, so you would need to look into that part. |

| ![]() Thanks. Even the used Scorpio AT of previous years would cost more? I did some search on gaadi.com and found few of them less than 10L? Hope I can provide link to gaadi.com here Used Mahindra Scorpio Automatic Cars |

Is this a dealer or an owner car? Is he the first owner? Where did you come across the vehicle? Once we have these details I can get its history and current condition checked. Yeah, Scorpio ATs are tough to find since they haven't sold that many,at least in the early days. | |

Heard that Mahindras don't have online history. And what all things to look for? I don't want to spend a fortune after buying the vehicle. | |

I smell something fishy already, since it is a dealer car. | |

When I tried to sell my Scorpio to the dealer they offered me some price which was half of what they were already selling for vehicles in a much worse condition, so I believe profit requirements have already overtaken the priorities with 'First Choice'. I was shocked with the price they offered and was very curt in asking them why they are trying to pull down the resale value of their own vehicles for profitability for which they did not have an answer. | ||
