What was spotted?
The video reveals a heavily camouflaged new-generation Mahindra Scorpio going off-road at Leh, Ladakh. The SUV is seen going downhill on a path that looks like a shortcut given the visible tyre marks. The video also confirms the availability of a normal single-pane sunroof on the new Scorpio. Earlier speculations claimed that the new generation Scorpio would get a panoramic sunroof similar to the XUV700. The new Scorpio seems to get some excellent job done at the suspension department as minimum body roll is visible in the video as the SUV descents from the hill.
Expected Specifications
The new generation Mahindra Scorpio will be offered in both petrol and diesel engine options. It is expected that the new Scorpio will get the same 2.0-litre petrol engine that is currently available in the Mahindra Thar. While the 2.2-litre mHawk diesel engine that is available in the base variants of the XUV700 is expected to power the new-generation Mahindra Scorpio. Both the engines are expected to get manual as well as automatic gearbox options.
Expected Features
The new-generation Mahindra Scorpio is expected to be a feature-loaded SUV just like the XUV700. The SUV is expected to get a big touchscreen infotainment system, dual-zone climate control, connected car technology, third-row charging ports, 4×4 drivetrain, cruise control and many more. The new-generation Mahindra Scorpio is also expected to get wireless charging as this feature is currently trending and offered in many new cars that have been launched recently.
