However, these engines are likely to come in a lower state of tune compared to the powerplant in the Mahindra XUV700. In addition to that, the upcoming 2022 Mahindra Scorpio is also likely to come with a 6-speed manual and a 6-speed automatic transmission as options.

Being an SUV, we expect Mahindra to equip the 2022 Scorpio with a sophisticated shift-on-fly four-wheel-drive system. However, this option is more likely to be available on the top-end trim levels.

The new Mahindra Scorpio will also feature a drastically improved interior with a majority of the tech and features from the Mahindra XUV700. This includes features such as a large touchscreen infotainment unit with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, wireless charging pad, cooled glovebox, fully digital instrument cluster, memory seats and much more.
