Scorpio classic s11 review 2025

The Mahindra Scorpio Classic S11, a top-tier variant of the iconic Indian SUV, blends rugged charm with practical utility, appealing to those who value road presence over modern frills. Launched as a continuation of the second-generation Scorpio, it retains its boxy, muscular design with minor updates like a revised grille featuring Mahindra’s Twin Peaks logo, sleek projector headlamps, and diamond-cut alloy wheels. Available in five colors—Galaxy Grey, Everest White, Molten Red Rage, Stealth Black, and Napoli Black—it exudes authority, standing tall at a height that surpasses even the Scorpio N. Its high ground clearance (209 mm) and ladder-on-frame construction ensure off-road prowess, though the absence of a 4WD option in this variant limits its versatility compared to competitors.Powered by a 2.2-liter mHawk diesel engine, the S11 delivers 130 bhp and 300 Nm of torque, paired with a 6-speed manual gearbox. The engine offers strong low-end torque, making city driving and highway cruising effortless, with a claimed mileage of 14.44–15 kmpl. However, acceleration feels laggy (0–100 km/h in ~15 seconds), and the heavy clutch pedal can fatigue drivers in traffic. The suspension absorbs bumps well but struggles with high-speed stability, causing jitters and body roll on rough roads.Inside, the cabin is functional but dated, with a no-nonsense vibe. The 9-inch touchscreen infotainment system lacks Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, feeling sluggish compared to modern rivals. Features like automatic climate control, cruise control, rear AC vents, and a reversing camera are welcome, but the absence of a sunroof, powered seats, or soft-touch materials disappoints at its price point (₹17.72 lakh ex-showroom). The spacious interior offers comfortable seating for seven, with ample legroom and boot space (460 liters, expandable by folding seats). However, practicality is hampered by small glovebox, no bottle holders in front doors, and minimal third-row storage.Safety is basic, with dual airbags, ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors, and seatbelt reminders. Its 2016 Global NCAP zero-star rating raises concerns, and the lack of six airbags or electronic stability control is a glaring omission.Priced at ₹21.36 lakh on-road in Delhi, the S11 is a heart-over-mind choice. It’s ideal for those seeking a commanding, reliable SUV for family and occasional off-road use but falls short against feature-rich competitors like the Hyundai Creta or Mahindra’s own Scorpio N.

Land Rover Defender 110 review 2025

The 2025 Land Rover Defender 110 is a unique blend of rugged off-road capability and modern luxury, making it a standout in the SUV market. As the mid-size option between the compact 90 and the larger 130, the 110 offers a versatile four-door layout with seating for up to seven, ideal for families or adventurers needing space and functionality. Its retro-modern design, with boxy proportions and nods to the original Defender like round headlights and a side-opening tailgate, gives it a distinctive presence. However, the tailgate can be cumbersome in tight spaces due to the spare wheel.Under the hood, the Defender 110 offers a range of powertrains. The base P300 is a 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder with 296 horsepower, while the P400, a 3.0-liter inline-six with a turbo, supercharger, and mild-hybrid system, delivers 395 horsepower and 406 lb-ft of torque.
