mahindra scorpio engine

Curious what’s under the Mahindra Scorpio’s bonnet? In Australia it runs a 2.2‑litre mHawk turbo‑diesel four‑cylinder with about 129 kW and 400 Nm, tied to a 6‑speed automatic. It’s backed by a proper 4x4 with low range, so it’ll do the school run and the scrub with equal disdain. Claimed economy hovers in the high‑7s L/100 km if you’re gentle, lower if you drive like your coffee’s gone cold.

It’s not a rev-happy thoroughbred, but it’s torquey, unbothered, and happier at a crawl than most inner‑city SUVs in peak hour. Consult official documentation for exact figures.
