Both six-speed manual and automatic transmissions are mated to these engines. The NVH levels too in the SUV are well contained. 

  Summary

  Punchy powertrains with option of automatic gearboxes across different variants. There will be a Scorpio for every type of buyer.

• 2022 Scorpio N (New) Exterior

  The Scorpio N's design certainly appears to be an evolution.   The Scorpio-N has a definite muscular appearance thanks to its beefed-up wheel arches, swooping bonnet, tall stance, and body creases. It certainly has the aura of the old Scorpio, with folks making way for you on the road. It's not notably edgy, and most people are unlikely to object to how it appears. In addition to getting some chrome, the front end feels sophisticated. The rear does resemble Volvo vehicles a lot with its vertically stacked LED tail lamps. Overall, the Scoprio N has grown in terms of design and looks appealing

  Summary

  Clean design, that will age well and is unmistakably a Scorpio.

• 2022 Scorpio N (New) Interiors

  Design-wise, the cabin is appealing. Although the dashboard design is straightforward and has a Scorpio Classic feel to it, some modern elements have been added. The cabin is consistently decorated in coffee brown and black (including on the seats), and it looks good in person. The center console in piano black is appealing.

  Aside from the captain seats for the second row, the Mahindra Scorpio N has an electric sunroof, dual-zone climate control, drive modes, a new touchscreen infotainment system, a music system from Sony, and AdrenoX connected car technology. All in all, this SUV has totally grown and looks premium when sitting inside. 

  Summary

  Feature loaded cabin that no only looks good to the eyes but will appeal to the techy consumers as well.

• 2022 Scorpio N (New) Ride And Handling

  The low-speed ride quality of this body-on-frame SUV is jiggly and somewhat unsteady, especially when there is no load in the vehicle. However, the body movement in the Scorpio-N is more restrained than it is in the Scorpio Classic. The handling of potholes and poor roads is excellent. When other vehicles are crawling at 10-15 km/h to preserve their suspension, it is a joy to pass over a rough patch of road at 50 km/h with ease. The suspension is very abuse-friendly, as one would anticipate from a Mahindra.

  When traveling at highway speeds, the ride is more peaceful. In addition to the vertical movement being well-controlled, expansion joints are handled well. The Scorpio-N should make cruising down the highway a breeze.

  Given the height of the car, there is an obvious body roll when driving fast around curves. What's notable is that when you carry some speed into a corner in the Scorpio-N, there is less roll than in the Scorpio Classic, and you don't feel as uneasy. Overall, if you want to upgrade from the older Scorpio to the Scorpio N or even if you are  first buyer then you can pick this model. It offers supreme ride quality and handling when compared to the older model. 

  Summary

  Handling and ride have gone up multiple notches compared to its predecessor. Something which will be appreciated by everyone.

• 2022 Scorpio N (New) Safety

  Six airbags, ABS+EBD, ESC, hill hold and descent control, TPMS, all-wheel disc brakes, ISOFIX, front and rear parking sensors with cameras, E-Call and SOS Switch, and driver drowsiness detection are just a few of the many safety features available. The Global NCAP results for the SUV are not out yet

  Summary

  Well laid out suite of safety features. GNCAP rating expected soon.
