What owners and experts like about the Mahindra Scorpio N
City drivability
Strongly positivebased on 6 reviews
“Is steering ko chala ke, main sach bataoon na bhai, doosri gaadi chalane ka mann nahi karega... kya cheez banayi hai Mahindra ne. (Having driven this steering, honestly I won't feel like driving another car — what a job Mahindra has done.)”
Engine refinement
Generally positivebased on 5 reviews
“While power is not punchy, you still get a strong linear pull of power right up to the redline. The turbo petrol is delightful, serving up a healthy dose of power whenever you want it.”
Rear seat space
Generally positivebased on 6 reviews
“Well this is so much better than the third row - yeah absolutely, I mean compared to before, there's so much space in here, the windows are nice and large, you can rest your arm like a boss, and it's pretty comfortable overall.”
Where the Mahindra Scorpio N falls short
Not every point below is a serious flaw. Some are mixed opinions where reviewers disagreed, and the label says which.
Boot space
Strongly negativebased on 6 reviews
“There's virtually no boot space with the last row up, and while folding the seats does free up much more room, the folded seats do eat up quite a bit of luggage space.”
Third row usability
Strongly negativebased on 9 reviews
“This time around the third row was a tight squeeze for him, so it is a no-no for taller people, it's just kids and people like me that would be okay.”
Touchscreen responsiveness
Strongly negativebased on 5 reviews
“Is screen ki baat karein to isके andar mujhe kai baari lag face karna pada hai. (I faced lag on the touchscreen several times.)”
Seat comfort
Generally negativebased on 6 reviews
Connected car features
Generally negativebased on 5 reviews
“This has Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, but you cannot connect Apple CarPlay wirelessly though the feature list states it. Apple CarPlay was not available on our test cars.”
