  • The driveability has been improved with cable-operated manual transmission
  • More refined as compared to the previous generation
  • 14% More fuel efficient than the previous generation Scorpio
  • More practical family car with 5-door configuration as compared to Thar & Gurkha
  • The interior offers decent space for 4-adults and some small luggage
  • The retro-modern design looks good and the striking colour options make it a head-turner.
  • The lightweight and small dimensions make it easy to manoeuvre
  • The car offers many features. Such as a 9-inch touchscreen, wireless connectivity, LED headlamps, cruise control, and headlamp washer.
  • The 4X4 hardware is standard across all trims
  • The 1.5-litre NA K15B engine is fuel efficient. It also comes with the option of a smooth torque converter automatic transmission.
  • Many safety features are available. These include 6 airbags, traction control, hill-hold and hill descent control, 3-point seatbelts for all, brake-based limited-slip differential, and ESP.
Cons
  • No value for money on offer only S & S11 variants are available
  • The base S variant misses on most of the features such as rear wiper, wheel covers, remote central locking and more
  • The S11 variant fails to justify the premium price tag as it misses on features such as Android Auto & Apple CarPlay, electrically folding ORVMs and more
  • Only a single diesel engine is available
  • No 4X4 hardware and automatic transmission on offer
  • The pricing overlaps with the Scorpio N SUV
  • Third row feels cramped, the space management inside the cabin could’ve been better
  • The 1.5-liter NA petrol engine with 103 bhp power isn't as enjoyable to drive as the engines in the Thar and Gurkha.
  • The small size doesn't give it a tough off-roader look
  • The steering isn't light; it feels firm
  • The 5-speed manual transmission has a heavy clutch
  • The footwell area is a bit cramped; tall drivers might find it uncomfortable
  • Strictly a 4-seater; fitting a 5th passenger will be difficult
  • It lacks some features like LED DRLs, TPMS, and auto wipers, among others
  • There's limited storage inside the cabin, and the boot space is only suitable for small bags
