Mahindra Scorpio Classic Pricing & Variants

The Scorpio Classic doesn’t try to be flashy with its price tag. It starts somewhere around ₹13.7 lakh ex-showroom and can go up close to ₹17.7 lakh if you’re looking at the top variant. On-road prices, depending on the city and the version, usually land between ₹16.5 to ₹21 lakh. That’s pretty reasonable for something this size and capability. If you're considering a pre-owned one, there’s even better news. A clean, well-kept used Scorpio Classic can be found in the market easily at Spinny for a lot less, often in the ballpark of ₹8 to ₹12 lakh, give or take. And the best part? These hold their value pretty well. People trust the Scorpio name, so resale demand doesn’t dip much, no matter the city.

Mahindra Scorpio Classic Expert's Review 4.2

The Scorpio Classic sticks to what it knows best: being tough, reliable, and ready for whatever the road throws at it. Its design doesn’t follow trends, and that’s exactly why it works. The boxy shape stands tall, the cabin is no-nonsense and usable, and the engine pulls like it should. The ride’s a bit firm, sure, but it handles bad roads better than most. There aren’t too many flashy features here, but what’s there feels honest and built to last. It’s not trying to be something it’s not , and that’s what makes it stand out.

Mahindra Scorpio Classic User's Review 4.0

"This was our first SUV, and we picked the Classic for its no-nonsense appeal. The drive is solid, you feel in control, and it doesn’t shake over potholes like smaller cars do. Interiors are okay, not premium, but they feel tough. The infotainment system works alright but feels a bit slow."

~ Farheen Shaikh

"What I like most is the way it handles rough roads without any fuss. Even in the rain, the grip feels sorted. It’s not flashy inside, but it’s practical; the controls are easy to use, and there's enough leg space in the second row. I do wish the third row had front-facing seats, though."

~ Preeti Sharma

"This is my second Scorpio, and I can say Mahindra stuck to the basics here. The engine is punchy and always ready to pull, especially when fully loaded. Gear shifts are better than before. That said, the touchscreen feels outdated, and there's no camera, just rear sensors. But it feels planted and safe and doesn’t rattle even after long runs."

~ Nitin Verma

"The engine is definitely the highlight, with lots of pull even in lower gears. Makes overtaking easy, especially on two-lane roads. Ride quality is more on the stiffer side, and bumps do come through, but it’s not uncomfortable. Cabin noise is noticeable at high speeds. I liked the space and visibility, though. For family trips or rough patches, it’s a reliable partner. A few more features and a bit more polish inside, and it’d be hard to beat."

~ Ajay Rana

"I have been using the Scorpio Classic for over 9 months now, mostly for highway runs and a bit of village driving; no complaints on performance. The engine feels strong and steady, especially when you're carrying a load or climbing up steep roads."
