The ‘Scorpio’n King!


Why Study Abroad When IIPM Gives You 3 global Advantages!

M&M has stolen the show with the Scorpio

I do notSwapan Seth, CEO, Equus Red Cell on Scorpio know how to drive but I am driven around. Moreover, I am not even car-savvy but I seem to be obsessed with Mahindra’s Scorpio... a bit too much! After trading my Scorpio with a friend for a Toyota Innova, I still can’t help but miss my old Scorpio and go all ga-ga about the huge beauty. One car I had and grossly miss is the Scorpio. (I think it’s completely kick-ass!) As a family, we go out to the hills very often. The Scorpio is perfect for long journeys. I like its road grip. And the fact that it is a complete workhorse that never ever gives us any trouble.

Right from The ‘Scorpio’n King!its launch in 2002, Mahindra’s Scorpio has made its presence felt not only in India but also in places like Dubai & Europe where it is popularly called Mahindra Goa. Offering its owners, satisfaction and rendering them tension-free rides, the Scorpio boasts of a five speed gear box, army-strong engine, aggressive styling, good re-sale value and much more that has enabled it to become popular as a refined cruiser, a capable mountain mule and a competent highway cruiser. My primary reason was that I wanted a value- efficient, sturdy vehicle that would be high on performance and low on maintenance. Across multi-terrains and over 50,000 kms, the Scorpio never let me down. The after sales service is top class. I think M&M stole the thunder from under the nose of many. For me, a car is an extremely functional vehicle that must ferry me from point A to B without fuss or flash. I am hugely anti-flashy cars that most men drive around. I think if you have a status, you don’t need a symbol to flag it off and on these counts Scorpio fits the bill!
