Oh boy...
We've spent 3 months with our long-term Mahindra Scorpio (aka Scorpio-N) and it's been a wild ride. Up until ANCAP, Australia's safety body, gave the Scorpio a 0-Star ANCAP safety rating, we were chuffed with the Scorpio. But now, we're just... confused. You see it also scored a 5-star safety rating in the Global NCAP testing program. So is the Mahindra Scorpio unsafe? Is it a bad buy? Well, not everything is as it seems here. Let's talk about that and our long-term review impressions for today's cheap 4x4 review!

The problem with the Scorpio's safety rating is because ANCAP needed to make a public spectacle of cars that didnt conform to thier whims, the car's crashworthiness is sound, its not easy to get 5 stars in GNACAP because they actually crash cars to see if the persons inside will make it out in one peice and not on gimmicks like ADAS.

@johnpostle502 6 месяцев назад

What can be done with the massive and intrusive mounting points for the 3rd row seats? They're a real problem for me! The poor storage such as a single cupholder and central bin would require a rethink of the cabin The zero ANCAP safety rating is a bad joke, especially for such a strong, well-engineered vehicle! The distractions and unreliability of all the mandatory electronic gizmos may well be contributing to the road toll, especially if drivers start relying on them! Meanwhile, the Mahindra Pikup is selling new in 2024 without any side bags but scores 3 from ANCAP! Maybe farmer's lives don't matter? So many commercial vehicles were allowed to be sold in Australia with only a driver's airbag and no side or head bags.

@benvisagie8844 6 месяцев назад

@@johnpostle502 ridiculous. Fortunately jn S Africa we dont have all the regulations and many people rightly so or not is switching off the so called safety things like lane change etc. Maybe its not as safe as the ANCAP people think. And I believe that safety systems that can be switched off because it is no proven safety factor, compared to ABS and airbags who cant be switched off as this is a real built in safety aspects. So how can they rate a car on safety if the systems can be used at will, then it isnt a safety factor…….. they havent made it compulsory. The boot isnt flat yes, its however not a problem to me as I normally have quite a load and the flatness of the boot is not playing a role for me.

@cthorno2991 6 месяцев назад

I took a tank 300 for a test drive and the lane keep assist could have broken my thumbs with the violent way it works. I also drove an xc90 and the way it will brake when either reversing or crossing traffic from detecting cars that are pretty far away is so annoying. So with all this autonomous garbage on cars, driving tests should basically be made obsolete. Licenses for everyone!!!

@Wedgetail96 6 месяцев назад

So basically it doesn’t have stuff for idiots who’d rather update Facebook, or text, then concentrate on driving. Oh that and the ‘can you get out if it ends up under water’ test? Seriously, ANCAP have completely lost the plot. If it’s structurally designed to protect the occupants, ABS, Stability Control, traction control, effective airbags, and how about roll over (which I understand ANCAP don’t even bother testing), then great.

@TK-hp2qo 6 месяцев назад

ANCAP ratings would help set guidelines for almost all manufacturers to ensure their car passes them on almost majority of the parameters this would be taken care of specially when you are trying to make inroads in a country/market. I understand the rationale behind changing goal posts(somewhat necessary as well) but what I am surprised about is the lack of communication between the manufacturer and the agency. Also mapping a car zero stars because it faults on a set of parameters requires a deeper analysis and further study. My personal understanding of the situation is that for a car to score a zero stars is because the car is absolutely a safety hazard which isnt the case here and hence ANCAP ratings are biased towards few manufacturers.

Arm rests were in the cars before your time and so was the go pedal.

@VIJAYBVERMA 6 месяцев назад

If further modernized, this may potentially rival the XUV 700. When the Scorpio was initially introduced in India in 2002, it stood as Mahindra's premier SUV offering. However, with the advent of the XUV 500 (previous generation of XUV 700), it carved its own niche in the market. Unless Mahindra can establish a clearer distinction between the two, they might prefer maintaining the current positioning.

Hi All, I bought a Scorpio-N 4xplor in September - the vin indicates made in January 2023. It has a loose steering issue which Mahindra SA is busy investigating. I spoke to another person with the same problem and their Scorpio-N was also made in January 2023. Are there any members here who have a similar issue and their vin number starts with MA1TK4YTTP6A With the 10th letter P indicating the year 2023 and the 12th letter A the month. It is a feeling of a loose component on the steering while traveling at low speeds over rough terrain. Could you please comment if you have a vehicle with the same problem and vin?

@bharathms5560 6 месяцев назад

Even today, wait period for this car in India is atleast 1 year. It is one of the most popular and safest SUV in India. I think they should take average and give rating. 5 star on crash test and 0 star on automatic safety. Average should be 2.5. 😕

@@rahulpatti1288 We took that into account. The primary concern arises when we need to utilize our car for transporting items, and even the second row poses challenges. The manufacturer has fallen short in the realm of interior ergonomics. Despite its overall brilliance, the interior is a notable drawback. The design near the driver's front row is excellent, but having just one cupholder seems like an oversight. If they had reworked the interior, including the seat setup and folding mechanism, this car could have enjoyed greater sales success.

I just wanna say that these cars are made keeping Indian Market in Mind. Even the cruise controls, forget adaptive, Even on Highways the car keeps going from 100 - 10 kmps to 100 again thanks to traffic and maniacs. Lastly the Cup holders. Indian Roads are so trash, a coffee cannot survive without spilling, cup holders are basically key or small things storage space here in India. Btw love your videos.

More computers is more things to go wrong at the worst possible time. The best accident prevention is good driver training, a rigorous driving test, fatigue awareness and zero alcohol/drugs. Make the physical structure safe in the event of crash in terms of crumple zones, airbags, pedestrian safety etc. and leave the awareness and "smarts" to the driver.
