      I absolutely love the Scorpio N! It's a luxurious car with a stunning design and incredibly comfortable seats, making every drive enjoyable. The black color is my favorite—it adds to the bold and premium look of the vehicle. I currently enjoy driving it, and in the future, I definitely plan to buy one for myself. The Scorpio N truly stands out for both style and comfort.

      Good looks paired with excellent control. Comfortable seat height with amazing comfort, and the trusted Mahindra badge. Perhaps one of the last ladder-frame SUVs you can buy today.

      The car’s performance, durability, and maintenance are wonderful. The only drawback is the mileage around 6–7 km/l in the city and up to 10 km/l on the highway, which is quite low.
