Agreed 💯
Hey Xavier! Thank you for the ❤️! Any suggestions? Would love to hear!

@@SirKart i loved your reviews on Autocar, i don't know why you left Autocar but your review style hasn't changed a bit. you are one of the best automobile reviewer in india. No matter on which channel you are, you are the best.
big fan😊
1:48 boy that’s one heck of an SUV❤️
The end scene! 🤣🤣🤣.
Fully agreed though. This is what the Harrier/Safari should’ve been.
What did he mean in the end scene?
@@akashagarwal5592 its the tata safari ad music
totally agree. the song now suits the scorpion.
Ya. How i wish the Storme was modernized and carried forward in BS6 version as well.
It is really commendable when a predominantly diesel engine manufacturer like Mahindra from its tractors to boleros and pickups is making a noteworthy enthusiast friendly petrol motor with 200 horsepower
Phew! Finally someone had the courage to talk about the rear design. It’s like ……Pratap, you take care of the front, leave the rear design as per old sketches
This car was designed before Pratap Bose joined Mahindra. So no blame to him.
@@suraj250684 righto! But he did tweak elements..
I didn’t find any issue in tail lamps.. it’s awesome 👌👌.. after you see the vehicle in person 2 to 3 times you will love this..
@@SirKart as far as I know from the insiders ( an ex Mahindra employee was a part of my team ). Most of the work on the car was already done. Bose mostly reviewed the final product. It is very difficult to tweak design elements for close to the deadline as vendors need to completed their DVPV requirements. Maybe a few basic design changes here and there, like colour or minor material tweaks. Changing major design elements means that the RFQ needs to be resent to the supplier and entire process needs to be repeated. For example the tail lamp for example. When you change internal requirements the supplier needs to run a feasability study, resend his estimate and run some validations tests again. It has an impact on his tier 2 and 3 suppliers.
I love the way that Mahindra left physical button for everyone essential action , not the way most new age cars bundle up in touch screen
You make it look like no car buyer should think about buying any car untill they look at your review. You have your own swag of defining the design. Nevertheless you're the BIG DADDY of the all reviewers out there reviewing a BiG Daddy. Thanks for what you do to this Auto Enthusiasts community.
Karthikeya does the review in a pleasing way. Can't miss a single minute.
Absolutely
Thank you Sanjay sir! 🙏🏾
@@ridersparadise123 bro! 🙏🏾❤️
For someone like me who has driven the Scorpio for a decade, this is an extremely welcome upgrade to aspire for.
Is this the Scorpio???? I mean it in a very good way.
The final statement with lots of despites was really summative enough...
Middle ground, the oomph and of course, the engine and driving dynamics will find its customers
Thank you so much Karthik bhai for your honest feedback. I think this Scorpio N could have been better designed as a 5 seater than this half baked 7 seater, that third row design is neither this side nor that side.
Other than that its a good car for a specific set of buyiers.
Owners can just remove the third row if you don’t have a big family. The bolts holding the third row are clearly visible.
@@VMRDY i have already done tha😁
@@BuluBiker Was it easy to remove? How is the boot after removing the third row? Is it relatively flat or contoured?
@@VMRDY its very easy just 4 bolts, now there is a large space for luggage but its not flat though, but thats ok
Hydraulic hatch rear tailgate would have been a welcome addition to the new Scorpio. The side opening tailgate has lots of issues which no one discusses. It's a big missed opportunity for a premium upgrade by Mahindra.
Apart from the looks and engine, i love that suspension they have put up on this car❤️
Tata hexa was a very capable machine. Hard to swallow that is discontinued now. That 2.2 l varicor 400 diesel with automatic was a charm to drive.
Because of innova, maruti managed to out perform innova because ertiga price and overall performance for its segment.
When it comes to the most important vehicles, zigwheels know their man.
Singhee❤️
How’s it going Aflah! ❤️ right back at you!
Two Legend in One Frame, Kartikeya and Scorpio 😍😍😍
Bro! Hugs! Hugs!
Kartik makes it interesting. Nice reviews as usual. Great suv but..
Disappointments:
* 2nd row doesn't slide.
* No boot space.
* No 60/40 fold 3rd row.
* No roof ac for 3rd row
I bought Toyota Sequoia 19 years ago that has ceiling ac for 3rd row passengers. Why can't Mahindra do it.
.
Because of sunroof, roof mounted ac vents are not given
@@viplavkirti8252 Sun roof has nothing to do with ac vents. The AC vents are inside ceiling both sides.
Because dedicate 2nd ac coil
That climax music which comes to his mind🔥🔥......the OG Tata SAFARI🔥
This is how the reviews should be. Very entertaining and engaging👏👏👏
Kartikeya is back!
Amazing video 💯
I was waiting for Kartikeya
Singhee's take on this!
I'm sure the whole video will be 🔥 when it's Kartikeya Singhee reviewing it. ❤️
NOW LET'S WATCH!
Broski! Was it? Did you? Feeeedbaack please! 🙏🏾
The last 10 seconds where you connect the OG Tata Safari tune, pretty much sums up the Scorpio N story. And guess what, just based this, I am booking one for myself with the 4WD Z8 (I had aspired to buy the Safari on the back of my journal in 8th standard; almost 25 years back)
Great review and awesome style!
It all started around the same time for me too. Car freaks for life. Even though I fly an airplane now.
Same here. I guess Z8 4WD is the best combination out of all available. Though mine would be automatic.
I’m looking at Z8L AWD D AT. Hope the pricing is competitive. Driver drowsiness alert is a big plus apart from Sony system. You don’t realise when you are going to fall asleep when you are wheel during long drives. On the flip side in dilemma Xuv700’s Adas is great. And a must have feature fast fwd 5 years. Problem is the waiting period there.
@@CaptAra Totally buy your viewpoint but to me Z8L doesn't offer anything extraordinary for that extra price. I was looking initially for Z4 as it had both of my requirements AT and 4WD but it doesn't offer sunroof because of which I had to go for Z8. Sunroof isn't my requirement but I need it now to showcase someone who use to flaunt it. 😂
Edit: Sorry I just got to know Z4 doesn't have AT. So Z8 is the automatically the only choice. Glad now that there's no confusion.
Z8 doesn't has alloy wheel. For this reason, I'm opting Z8L otherwise Z8 is value for money.
End scene was just BOMB💣😂
Kartikeya❤️
Superb camera work. Of all the reviews on RUclips for the ScorpioN this had the most amazing videography. Of course Kartikeya is always a pleasure to listen to!
Super happy to have you here in the comments sah! Hope you are doing well! - Kartikeya
Not having AC for the third row is a big deal for me, because in my region it is nothing less than HELL, how could Mahindra miss that.
They claim that the second row AC is much more powerful that it can cool the third Row and hence no need in third row for separate AC vents
Excellent karthikeya
Was waiting for this...and as expected Mr singhee is here 🔥
Halllllo Mr.R!!!
All the comments were from those who can't own a Scorpio N...
Everybody just criticise it because of only one reason and that is.
It's a fabulous vehicle not competitor can beat it's capability and riding dynamics...
1.5 lakh booking in 30 mins wasn't a joke...
People love this car and dream to own it.😂
Thanks for a critical review than just singing praise on Scorpio like other reviews.
IMO, there are few bugs that has to be sorted for this to be a superhit (it will be a hit but not superhit right now)
1. Middlerow sliding
2. 3rd row removable
3. 4WD on all variants
4. 6 airbags for all
Fantastic presentation as always, man! Loved the review. And yup, the rear pretty much resembles an MPV. It's diluting the Scorpio N's SUV appeal.
Hola bro! That rear is definitely a weak link in its formula.
Punchy Presentation as Always!!! Loved every bit!!!
Very balanced review! Whereas other channels are all gaga over the scorpio, you have highlighted both ups and downs! 👍
Happy to call it as we see it. And glad to have you with us!!
Loved the fun and entertaining style of the video delivered in the only immaculate style that Kathikye can deliver. 👍
Now that I have booked a Jeep compass, I'm only here to watch you review. 😊 You're a different league Kartikeya
Wat a confident review, amazing to listen. I am gonna try this in my presentation today 😈
Every Kartikeya Singhe Review Is A Treat To Watch. Thank You Zigwheels ❤️
Thank you Sanjit sir!! ❤️
always wait for Kartikeyan's review
Great review karthikeya. Ur reviews are crisp and great
1st real review of Scorpio tht i came across
Ending is awesome Karthik . Short and crisp review
Oh the Safari Reclaim your life ad music in the end. One of the best ads I think of those times. Gets me going.
When it comes to reviewing Kartikeya sir is second to no one..
👍👍👍👍👍
That iconic music at the end 🔥🔥🔥 really Tata has messed up the Safari name ....
It's the Scorpio now that suits more to phrase "Reclaim your life!"😂😂😂
Compared to autocar review of 30 mins.this guy done great .
Nice video Karthikeya
Karthik's oratory skill is just 'wow'. Keep it up.👍
The ending was amazing 🤣
I have seen many reviews of this suv b4.. but just came here to watch Kartik review it..
Another level all together
The music that plays in your mind may not be quite right... But it sure fills the void, Karthikeya... Mahindra started from where Tata left! A thoroughbred, full blown SUV, on a ladder-on-frame, with a Rear Wheel Drive and one that gives a pleasurable driving! Don't you agree? The ScorpioN King has arrived!!
Excellent camera work with a different colour tone, and a great review, #zigwheels. And, Karthikeya... A big fan of yours!
Trust karthik for a good review always 👍🏼
Just because Kartikeya is reviewing this I watched the video And I must say I love his video.
The best Scorpio N review !
Awesome review Karthik bro.
Ohh Kartikey is here 🔥
Nice touch in the end.
Thank you for reviewing this Bro.
The desi customers are going to call it scorpion now hahahaha
A little bit of truth and flatter goes a long way,nailed the presentation.
Thank God body roll and jerky suspension is fixed bonus points to the end music.
Happy to do so sir!
@@SirKart i am no Sir just a Bro is fine, Thank you for the wonderful amazing review as always looking forward to your reviews.
kartikeya's reviews are always masterpiece
This is guy who convinced me to buy KUV100 when it was launched with his similar style of review then (with Autocar India). I may have been convinced now to buy ScorpioN now. 🦂
You are the best Kartik, none like you... U and your team are at next level, so dramatic presentation as always 👌
Wating for your review. Best car expert kartik sir❤️💯💯💯
Lion is roaring kartikeya is a king in automotive review. Always rocking 👏 Anna
Great review man!!! Loved it, so much so that I had to stop watching in the middle and type a comment.😆. My thoughts exactly, should have been a 5-seater.
Broski! Big hug for you man! ❤️
Excellent presentation!!
Oh I love it 🔥 side looks Amazing… design, curves 🔥🔥🔥
Mid range Maybach GLS 600…
Amazing style of reviewing.. only scorpion review video watched fully... 👍
Hey Anoop! That made my day!
Very dynamic and professional presentation... well done and congratulations Sir
Kartikeya OP.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Tata Safari 2nd gen advertisement soundtrack! What an epic tune that was!
As always, it's a pleasure seeing you review the new kid in SUVs! And definitely sir, i agree with you. Even i felt the same, that it looks like Xylo from the rear!!😅 although in Xylo, it looked much better than this!!!
😂The music that starts playing in your mind is quite right, cuz it is actually the baap of Indian SUVs!!!
Mahindra may suddenly start calling itself the daddy, cuz socially certain daddies do buy the classic Scorpio... But it's actually the Safari, which holds much more credential to be the daddy of SUVs, and would have retained that claim.triumohantly had Tata given it the 4x4 system.
Ouh, One more thing, @Kartikeya sir, which Japanese rivals are you referring to? Cuz within 20-25 Lakhs, there is no Japanese ladder on frame available, to the best of my knowledge!
Hola! Thanks as always bro.. the rivals - Mahindra benchmarked it against the Fortuner. Also, it’s priced close to Innova - which is known for its bullet proofness. And a factor that many people will wonder about.
You forgot innova crysta?
Maybe Fortuner is what he meant, sizewise. Cuz all Ik in this price range is Koreans (small and urban)
Scorpio N having fantastic power and better performance compared to other competitors ..Man the Petrol engine is awesome , no words .. a/C power is too good in Scorpio N that can cover 3rd row as well.. road presence and seating posture 👌👌.. nobody can offer ..I didn’t seriously find any issue with tail door and design ..
I went and saw both the Scorpio N and Scorpio Classic side by side in showroom....actually Scorpio Classic looks more beautiful and macho style....classic has massive space in the third row and it is more boxy...the rear of classic is much more impressive....I think those who love love classic and retro designs will still buy Scorpio Classic
But Classic becomes Outdated now also its poor GNCAP 0star RATTINGS
Pros ( that I liked )
- Really loved the design , the long hood , the volvo tail lights & those headlamps 🤩🤩
- Use of chrome is really on point✌✌
- Awesome road presence 👌👌
- Good 18" looking alloys , but 19" would have been gorgeous 👀👀
- As mentioned , the main USP , I think is ride quality
Cons ( things I didn't liked )
- Dark brown leather upholstery looks a little offside , I think instead of dual color ,they could have simply gone with single color scheme like in xuv 700 .
- as mentioned a 5 seater would have been better .
- I personally think that the side opening tail gate is a little old school becoz now they are providing front facing 3rd row , so a normal upwards opening would have made more justice .
- No ADAS ( not a con as such , becoz that is reserved for THE BIG DADDY of THE BIG DADDY i.e. XUV 700 ) 😂😂.
- I think the squarish head rest + the wide seats ( instead of big seats ) makes it a little less roomy and might be a little fatty 😅😅
VERDICT - The cons are not as such disappointing , they are actually very subjective and to sum it up , the COMMANDING ride height , ENGINE refinement and after all MAHINDRA's RELIABILITY IS UNQUESTIONABLE
Dark brown leather seats are good as they won't get dirty easily...
18 inch and 19 inch!!!!! for an off road capable suv ,common
...
@@dharrshane1449 brown seats get equally dirty. it's just that you don't see it as much..
The only reason I am not considering the xuv700 is the white upholstery. My toddler has the ability to make any light color interior dirty in less than 1 min. He literally wipes his chocolate covered paws on the car seat 😅
His voice does that magic while he reviewing 💫, his voice made us feel this is the review we were waiting for 🔥💫
Another review from the BEST :).. Car looks good, side proportion reminds me MG Gloster. Over all SCORPIO N looks Good.
Hey Antony! Thanks for the encouragement bro!
Despite off short video
It impacts high 😍😍😍😜😜😜
Precisely balanced review, calling out the things for what they are. Scorpio must have done better on equipment and space for the money it will ask for at the top end; and a 5 seater would have made more sense with more room in 2nd row and the boot. Its a good update but while Mahindra has moved miles they have felt short by a few hundred meters from making this a quintessential D-segment competitor.
Quite an assessment! Thanks for being here!
Waise Sir scorpio lene wale itna sochte hi nahi hn ise lene se pehle😅. Mere paas 2013 Scorpio Sle h kya gaadi h ek dum mastt. Aapka presentation hamesha ki tarah hi accha tha. Ek review dekh liya bs kaafi h.
Aur end me music 😂😂
I will always look for @karthikeya in all zigwheels reviews. Fan fan fan for him.
One of the best car reviewers in India ♥️
That reclaim your life music❤
Nice review 😀😀👍
Review of scorpio is interesting! But ur style n approach towards review is awesome!
As usual Nice presentation and told about pros and cons in some small length video itself(others are doing it like movie...)
Love you Karthik, love the exciting and enthusiasm from you way of telling feels like greeting the 🚗...
Hahaha! So happy to hear that.. I do feel like it’s my job to translate for them! Hehehe
Like the new Scorpio … love the way you play with words.. very well reviewed
That end note! Wicked pun 😀
I have no idea what you mean.. it’s just a song I like. 😜
End note that BGM wow!!!....Dicor 2.2 VTT (never seen any bull similar till date)...Mahindra has come a long way..."Imaging Thar LOF tuned to same ride, handling & dynamics" !!!
Scorpio is all about feel , robust drive that's it . It is a vehicle that has its X Factor is its ride and capabilities
Pratap bose nailing it..
lets hope safari too delivers then nice end . awesome video thanks sir
Loved the requiem for a dream ending....😃
Hehehe!
Good balanced review. This is a practical choice at the current price point. Now if only the Harrier had a 2.2 Diesel 4x4 that would set the cat among the pigeons.
Last 10 seconds -- Hit me hard!!
Sideways boot opening is gold.
Reviewer be like jaldi jaldi English me gyan de deta hoon, sab log intellectual samjhenge.
Excellent and true review
Does Z4 4x4 variant come with differential locks as the Z8 4x4 variant ?
First things first, although there is some similarity between this and the outgoing model, I personally need to convince myself its an evolution of the same. Its visible only from a very few angles. Don't get me wrong, I like the overall design but something about the rounded snout, it just doesn't work for me. Also the tailgate, it kind of breaks the design to be honest. And yes, IMO its more of Xylo than Marazzo. The design has XUV , Xylo in the mix esp the rear three quarters. But it works. I am sure most if not all will find it appealing overall.
The boot is actually better than what i imagined from the first look video. The hinges could have been moved a bit to the corners to offer a bit more space but I am sure they had some engineering constraints. No AC vents for the third row is a glaring omission. The tiny rear AC vents don't do much in a hatchback, and the Scorpio-N is at least 3x more volume to cool. They could have just added vents if not blower controls too in the roof for the third row. Also they could have provided a 12v port at the rear. Most vehicles get it in second and third row too, another miss.
7:30 does the 'Navigation' on the speedo use in built maps or does it use Android Auto/CarPlay? I don't know anyone personally who uses on board navigation that comes with a car, any car for that matter. It would be sensible to get Google Maps or something equivalent ( i know infotainment does support it, I am just talking of the MID on the speedo).
7:49 OT! Whose good boy is that? SuperCute!!!
8:42 The rear part of the stalks, that seem to house some kind of rotary toggles, the housing seems to have sharp edges.
Also Scorpio gets mechanical rear diff locks and BLD at the front right? If I am not wrong the Thar gets BLD at both ends right?
From what I can see Mahindra has purposely cut out important things to keep it from cannibalizing XUV7OO's market, which seems fair since they are closely priced. But major omission likes lack of proper cooling for third row, no 12v at the back (which can be sought aftermarket) is not something Mahindra should have done.
The funny thing is, Mahindra went ahead of Tata in the segment with XUV7OO and now this. Where does that leave Tata with Safari and Harrier? Indians love gizmos and features of which Tata vehicles offer less and now with Mahindra also sorting out ride and handling which was the USP of Tata (at least ride was for most part, handling got better later), I wonder if Tata is too late to consider upgrading its big SUV line up.
As always, I liked the way Karthikeya has reviewed the Scorpio-N too, though I wish off-roading was covered a bit more. And also, camera from the backseat kept saying 'Hello Bhai' 😆
Good job guys :)
Hello! Thanks as always sir!
Navigation - onboard maps - not from the smartphone.
Goodboy - that’s a long story! Will find out. Hehe
Off-road bits - will get you a low down soon! Using BLD though.
@@SirKart Thank you kind sir :)
Good to connect that music to this vehicle. This deserves it thoroughly. Booking a Z8L 4WD tomorrow.
I just hope that the AC is on steroids else that last row is a graveyard.
Everything was spot on in the review until 14:34 That's what made Jezza so popular among the public and feared by the OEMs
Any particular reason you didn’t like the end?
@@SirKart I'll leave you with this quote from Jezza: “I’m not employed to think one thing and say something else. Am I supposed to recommend all cars that are made here, irrespective of their price, performance or quality? Because if I am, all of you must go out tomorrow and buy a London cab." You are entitled to your opinion but Clarkson did what many auto journos didn't dare. And he didn't care if it was British or not.
