According to the estimates, more than 4 lac units of Mahindra Scorpio have been sold ever since its launch, some eleven years ago. Furthermore, in the recent years, the sales of this model have only increased. The records indicate that the company has been selling about 50 thousand units of Scorpio a year, on average, for the past two years.
Recently, the 2014 Mahindra Scorpio new modelย was spotted testing in the R&D Center of the company.
