Old Mahindra Scorpio SUV Price
Mahindra has already launched its new-gen Scorpio N with steep pricing. It ranges between Rs 11.99 - 23.90 lakh ex-showroom. While the new Scorpio has become better in every aspect, the old Scorpio still enjoys its affordable price factor. The old Scorpio is available between Rs 13.53 - 18.61 lakh ex-showroom pan India. It is nearly Rs 4 lakh cheaper than the newly launched Scorpio.
Mind you, the new Scorpio base variant is a petrol unit whilst the older one comes only with a diesel mill. Now, the additional bonus discount of Rs 1.79 lakh means the S11 variant will cost you around Rs 16.82 lakh ex-showroom. This is crazily affordable considering the pricing of the new Mahindra Scorpio N.
After-market Service Support
The after-market service support of the old Scorpio is one of its strongest selling points. The strong support and image that the Scorpio has created over time are visible in Tier-2 & Tier-3 cities vastly. The availability of spare parts across the country and plenty of mechanics to fix the Scorpio has always created confidence among the owners.
As the new Scorpio N deliveries will take time to begin & even more time to spread its name to these cities; the older Scorpio prevails strong. The brand image and the after-market support are another reason to vouch for the older Scorpio.

Reliability & Resale Value
It is no lie that the Scorpio is reliable. Mahindra is known for being the Indian SUV maker king & this shouts out with the Scorpio brand bluntly. The 2.2-Le m-Hawk diesel engine that makes a peak of 137 hp and 320 Nm torque is a gem of an engine. Additionally, the 6-speed gearbox is a boon for highway mile-munchers. The Scorpio is known very less to fail or break & hence a strong brand image of it among Indians.
Due to the reliability, the space it offers, & its RWD capabilities; the older Scorpio also enjoys a strong resale value across the country. The new Scorpio N is also on the same path but there is still a long way for it to reach where the current Scorpio stands. The strong brand image is a win-win situation for reliability and resale value concerns.
