Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Mahindra Scorpio
- Proven reliability and good service network
- Rugged Traditional SUV looks
- Drives and handles better than before
- Good ride over bad roads
Mahindra Thar
- Attention grabbing design. Looks macho and has stronger road presence than ever before.
- Available with petrol and diesel engines with a choice of 6-speed manual or automatic transmissions for both.
- Design better suited for off-roading than before. Big improvements in departure angle, breakover angle and ground clearance.
- More tech: Brake based differential locking system, auto locking rear mechanical differential, shift-on-the-fly 4x4 with low range, 7-inch touchscreen with off-road gauges, Android Auto, Apple CarPlay and navigation
- Good quality interior with better practicality than before. The Thar is now more family friendly.
- Improved noise vibration and harshness management. Doesn’t feel crude or outdated to drive anymore.
- More configurations: Fixed soft top, fixed hardtop or convertible soft top, available as a 6- or 4- seater

Mahindra Scorpio
- Interior quality and poor fit and finish
- Short Features List
- No Automatic or 4x4 option anymore
Mahindra Thar
- Stiff ride quality. Deals with bad roads well but sharp bumps can unsettle the cabin quite easily
- Old school ladder frame SUV and behaves like one. Loads of body roll even on mild curves
- Some cabin flaws: Rear windows aren’t openable, pedal box leaves no proper space to rest your left foot even in the automatic and thick B pillars create large blind spots to the side
- It’s a heavily improved/polished version of a hardcore off-roader but not an alternative to more practical, comfortable, feature rich compact/sub compact SUVs
