Brought home my Mahindra Scorpio-N 4X2 AT: 4 quick observations

As many mentioned in this thread, it is miles ahead of the previous Scorpio, but do not compare it to an XUV 700 or other monocoque SUVs.

BHPian vinbie2019 recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

Delivery

Took delivery of my Forest Green RWD Z8L Petrol yesterday.

Overall dealership experience was best compared to all my car purchases in past. Sireesh Automobiles Yelahanka staff made us feel special and all our needs taken care and spent quality time explaining documents, servicing, features, app, etc. In fact they were quite busy yesterday owing to auspicious time and day, still kept their smile and engaged us.

Handing over

Pooja

First Drive:

Did a long drive till KIA toll gate in elevated highway with 6 adults. It is pure pleasure and reassures it is a driver's car. Almost never felt lack of power. Car is installed with integrated roof carrier, that gives irritating sound in speeds over 80 with cross winds, which is expected as i had similar experience in a Audi Q5 with roof rack. Respect in road amongst innovas and tempo travellers. Coming from Ignis, it takes a second or so to take it.

Observations:

  • My Samsung S22 was heating up to uncomfortable levels when paired wirelessly.
  • Adrenox app is irritating with lot many notifications. I like to keep my phone silent.
  • As many mentioned in this thread, it is miles ahead of previous avatar Scorpio, but do not compare to XUV 700 or other monocoque SUVs.
  • Did not feel much difference in ride quality with 3 people or 6 people. which is a good thing.
  • First experience owning a 25+ lakhs car, all gadgetry looks overwhelming. I can't complain the backup cameras or music quality. But still miss 360 camera, it takes few tries to park in apartment basement.
