Where the Mahindra Scorpio Classic falls short
Not every point below is a serious flaw. Some are mixed opinions where reviewers disagreed, and the label says which.
Fit & finish
Strongly negativebased on 10 reviews
“Aap dekh rahe hain ye jo crevice hai yahan pe, is side par bhi dhool phasegi... to ye panel gapping thoda sa diya hua hai Mahindra se, thoda sa disappoint hoon ki inhone cost cutting ki hai.”
Handling
Generally negativebased on 9 reviews
“Main 160 chala chuka hoon. Us table pe feel hota hai, thoda darr bhi lagta hai, badi gaadi hai... jo iska size hai kaafi bada hai to 160 mein kaafi zyada body roll feel hota hoga.”
Ride comfort
Mixed reviewsbased on 8 reviews
“Agar aapke ghar mein chota baby hai... to gaadi chalao 90 ya 80... kyunki agar last seat mein koi baithta hai to bahut jump karti hai peeche se.”
Air conditioning
Mixed reviewsbased on 5 reviews
“No AC vents here so it can get quite claustrophobic. There are these butterfly windows though which you can open for some ventilation, but in our country I think the air outside is a lot hotter usually.”
Braking
Mixed reviewsbased on 5 reviews
“Braking lo ante eppudaina highways meeda sudden brake veyalsi vachinappudu konchem munduku velle... konchem time anedi padtadi. Front brake disc unte instant padtadi, back disc drum brakes kaabatti konchem cleaner untundi (slower).”
