The Mahindra Scorpio-N is Mahindraโs interpretation of whatโs commonly known as a true-blue body-on-frame SUV for those who want to be big, bold, and not compromise on comfort in day-to-day driving too. Unlike the Scorpio that came before it, the Scorpio-N is much better developed and refined in every way, while retaining enough of the tough stuff that made it popular in the first place. Itโs tall, itโs rugged-looking when itโs on the roads too, and itโs mighty reassuring to be driving in the rear seats too. Whatever it is from commuting in the city to cruising around on highways to driving around rough patches that arenโt exactly highwaysโthe Scorpio-N is designed to handle it all without an effort.
