Specs
In this base trim, the Scorpio comes powered by the 2.2-litre mHawk diesel engine in a lower state of tune. Here, it churns out 120 hp and 280 Nm of peak power and torque (compared to 140 PS / 320 Nm in the higher trims). This engine is mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox. This variant costs Rs 13.54 lakh, ex-showroom. If you are looking for a rugged SUV at an attractive price point, this soon-to-become Scorpio Classic is a great choice. However, if you are willing to spend a bit more in favour of modern design, features and comfort, you could wait for the new-gen Scorpio N that will launch at the end of this month.
