@@EdgewithHedge agreed. I’ve recently booked the petrol AT, and this is one of the factors that made my decision. Second thing is the upcoming limitations on diesel vehicle life which are likely to be implemented by the Govt soon.

In addition, petrol has following advantages 1. No DPF headache. Cleaner emissions in compared to diesel. 2. NVH is significantly lesser to Diesel. 3. Higher ethanol mix in future, hopefully, will keep fuel price stable.
2k Diesel ⛽ engine has def so no dpf issues also diesel is fun to drive, also diesel has much better suspension than petrol....better avg than petrol also I don't think diesel will sooner get banned it will be but later not sooner
Wow Ninad a detailed and comprehensive review 👏 You have also answered the likely questions in advance which is very good. The ladder on frame design would surely have a mind of its own and would be less car like to drive as compared to a monocoque. Would have been more comprehensive to identify the likely below mentioned sore points and also pair it with cars of similar cost on handling ,engine refinement ,gearbox sleekness, decibel level, vibrations ,road noise. But all in all a great first cut review. Keep up the good work of enlightening prospective car buyers.
In heavy bumper to bumper traffic, no SUV is gonna achieve 12kmpl especially something as heavy as this. My manual diesel xuv500 with softest of drivings barely touches 10 mostly 8.5. Returns upto 15 on the highway fully loaded. Having said the Scorpio N petrol has a turbo and low end torque and comes with 6 speed manual and AT transmissions and weighing a notch lesser, it should probably be more efficient than the diesel.
wonderful review. I have one question. How far can the captain seats in second row incline in the six seater as compared to the 60:40 seats in the seven seater ? Is it more or the same? Please let me know.
Thanks! In both the SUVs, the second row backrest goes quite close to the rear seat but doesn't go flat. Additional info - the second row doesn't slide forward in the six-seater limiting the versatility. So please check that out.
That’s coz it doesn’t make sense. Petrol engine will return very poor mileage due to additional weight & as such the low end torque of petrol is superbly great. This petrol version is amazingly capable & can take you places where usual people do not go (extreme rough terrain). It will meet 99% peoples need however for those 1% enthusiasts, they have given diesel 4x4. Hope that helps. I own the petrol AT & recently did a trip to Sikkim covering most treacherous roads & terrain, the vehicle glided through those with ease. It’s a real capable vehicle & petrol makes more sense if your running is low & you are in Delhi NCR.
What factors would you take into account before choosing between the Scorpio-N petrol and diesel variants?
Good Review. But I just failed to understand why Mahindra made Scorpio a 7 seater vehicle when they already have XUV700.
@@ashutoshbehera6642 Thanks. We've seen in the past - a Mahindra XUV700 buyer and a Scorpio buyer is totally different.

My petrol AT gives 8-9 in city & I get 12-12.5 kmpl on a regular highway. Expressways, it increases to 13-14 kmpl. Hope that helps

Exactly
Still no option with 4WD
In addition, petrol has following advantages
1. No DPF headache. Cleaner emissions in compared to diesel.
2. NVH is significantly lesser to Diesel.
3. Higher ethanol mix in future, hopefully, will keep fuel price stable.
Perfect...in general for all petrol cars over diesel! Thanks :)
Lol don't joke about the 3 one!
2k Diesel ⛽ engine has def so no dpf issues also diesel is fun to drive, also diesel has much better suspension than petrol....better avg than petrol also I don't think diesel will sooner get banned it will be but later not sooner
This is the way how you make someone decide what car to buy and why.Really unique review,keep it up guys!👍
Thank you. :)
Most will not consider the petrol variant due to the poor mileage when compared to the diesel variant.
Now they will due to diesel vehicles ban
@@harrysingh199 there is no diesel ban
The difference in mileage is not substantial

Very, very informative and detailed review of the Scorpio N.
Thank you!

Before booking z8L(petrol) they said it will give 15kmpl average.
Ha ha.
Liars want you to book

Why he breaks each sentence into twenty pieces when talking
Huge vehicles diesel better???
Good analysis
Is scorpio available in petrol automatic with 4*4
No
Which type of automatic petrol or diesel is...
The Scorpio N gets a torque converter automatic transmission with both diesel and petrol engines
Why wouldn’t they offer 4x4 in petrol
Most probably because there isn't enough demand for such a combination
