Available in as many as 7 variants, Scorpio is powered by 2 types of Diesel units. While only the base S2 trim makes use of the under-powered 2.5 litre m2DICR engine which generates a nominal 75 hp at 3200 rpm along with a peak torque of 200 Nm at 2200 rpm. The figures fall short to empower this 2500+ kg SUV. That is why, the onus falls on to its reliable 2.2litre mHawk unit which power's the rest of the variants and it has been carried from its predecessor. Generating a commendable 120 horses under its hood at 4000 rpm range, it delivers 280 Nm of torque which is fairly adequate as the rev band starts from as early as 1800 - 2800 rpm. Apart from its regular 5 speed manual transmission, the top of the line variant also gets a 6 speed automatic transmission with optional 4 wheel drive capability which just adds on to the driving dynamics of the Scorpio. The automatic transmission responds very well on the go. The ride quality is quite good as well for city traffic and commuting but because of its suspension being on a softer side potholes and jerks are felt quite frequently inside the cabin. All wheel disc brakes are a miss even in its upgraded avatar which makes braking quite a job owing to its 2500+ kg weight.
