    Exterior

     When I bought it I loved it because it was big and tough, reliable, inexpensive to maintain, had tons of space and I loved using it for daily driving as well as out station trips.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

     Ergonomics are bad compared with more modern cars. Very bumpy ride especially in the back. Causes severe back ache over medium to long term usage. I used it for 4 years and 50,000 kms and got so tired of it that I sold it.

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

     Engine is smooth and creamy. FE is ok at 9-10kmpl in city and about 12 on highways. Gearbox remained excellent throughout my use as did the clutch.

    Ride Quality & Handling

    Very bumpy especially in the back seats and of course the front passenger seat. Uncomfortable, bad ergonomics, starts giving you back ache and stress over time. In the beginning everything is great but as time goes by it becomes progressively worse. Lack of safety kit is a real danger issue given that the roads are becoming more and more dangerous day by day. Lack of speed sensitive power steering can lead to trouble as the steering is way too light - its been tuned for the city, but on highways, in the hands of an inexperienced driver it can be highly dangerous. Braking on this vehicle is extremely dangerous. It has such a capacity for high speeds that regardless of which version one buys, ABS and other safety stuff has to be absolutely mandatory!

    Final Words

     The Scorpio changed M&M's game when it came. An excellent indigenous design and execution effort. Subsequent versions have been tweaked mainly on the cosmetic front. The new engines and introduction of safety kit are good things, but the basic vehicle design is badly flawed as it is way too top heavy. Handling is poor regardless of the version. It is also very heavy and its boxy construction can be a pain at times.

    It is a spacious wagon and has an inexhaustible capacity for luggage and people - an excellent people mover. However it is crude and dated now and really needs a massive upgradation on all counts. It does not simply cut it any more in comparison to the competition. After all the basic design is 10 years old and more now!

    Areas of improvement  

     Ride, Suspension, Handling, Boxy/ Top heavy nature, crude finish. bad braking, extremely light power steering leads to danger. Poor ergonomics lead to fatigue. Bad seats and sitting position plus lack of lumbar support leads to severe back aches and significant tiredness while driving.

    Safety kit and modern driver aids have to be made mandatory in whichever version of the Scorpio it is. This is absolutely essential in the modern scenario.

     

     

    Great value pricing. Large and Spacious, Tough. Reliable. Easy to service etc.Useless brakes. Insufficient safety kit. Bad ride, handling, suspension. Not modern enough in 2012!
