Mahindra has launched the updated Mahindra Scorpio Classic 2025, and it brings some well-thought-out upgrades while keeping the rugged charm alive. Known for its strong road presence and dependable performance, the new Scorpio Classic continues to appeal to buyers who prefer a no-nonsense SUV with a bold design and practical features.
Familiar Design with Subtle Enhancements
The Mahindra Scorpio Classic 2025 retains its iconic boxy silhouette, which has become a trademark over the years. However, Mahindra has added a new grille design, updated LED DRLs, and slightly revised bumpers, making it look a bit more modern without losing its tough SUV character. The 17-inch alloy wheels and high ground clearance give it a strong stance, ideal for both urban and rough-road driving.
Cabin Features and Technology
Inside, the cabin remains functional with small upgrades like a new 9-inch touchscreen, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and revised fabric upholstery for better comfort. It continues to offer a spacious interior with decent headroom and legroom, especially in the front and second row. Mahindra has kept things simple, focusing on durability and ease of use rather than luxury.
Engine & Performance
The SUV is powered by Mahindra’s trusted 2.2-litre mHawk diesel engine, which produces 132 PS and 300 Nm of torque. It is paired with a 6-speed manual gearbox, tuned for a smoother and more refined drive. Despite its size and weight, the Scorpio Classic delivers a mileage of around 15-16 km/l, which is reasonable for a diesel SUV in this segment.
Safety and Practicality
On the safety front, dual airbags, ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors, and speed alert system come as standard. The build quality remains solid, which adds confidence for long highway drives and rural travel.
Final Verdict & Pricing
Priced from ₹13.77 lakh (ex-showroom), the Mahindra Scorpio Classic 2025 is aimed at buyers who want a rugged, reliable SUV without going for overly modern styling or tech-heavy interiors. For those looking for old-school utility with modern reliability, this is still a strong option in the market.
