Most Helpful Review

Just drive and you will know...

Outstanding... I'm speechless. This car offers you a great feel that you are in a smart off-roader with 5 doors, providing the best experience for both the driver and rear passengers. There's so many accessories for aftermarket modifications and it's a well-designed car that you can use for daily rides or short and long trips. I think this car is not overpriced, you have to know this car is 4×4.

Mahindra Scorpio N review

Drive it we feel it and car space is so long it gives the best mileage and looks so amazing. it has also sunroof but in Scorpio Classic it doesn't we compare at all over other cars it was the best.
