Pros & Cons

Advantages

  • The Mahindra Bolero has proven its mettle by serving the needs of rural India for decades. Its rugged body-on-frame construction and rear wheel drivetrain make it very rugged and utilitarian.

  • The Bolero continues to be the favourite SUV in the Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities of India. Despite having only the basic set of safety and functional features, the Bolero continues to sell in big numbers and marks its presence in the top 20 car sales list every month.

  • The Bolero is the only SUV other than Bolero Neo that offers the practicality of 7 seats in a car that measures under 4 metres in length. Even though the Bolero gets jump seats for the last row, they offer relatively better space than front-facing seating configuration.

  • The boxy proportions, tailgate-mounted spare wheel and exposed door hinges give the Boleto a proper SUV stance. This kind of stance and road presence is not available with any other sub-4m SUV.

  • Mahindra Scorpio N comes with class-leading dimensions and impressive presence on the road. Despite rivaling C-segment 3-row SUVs in terms of price, the Scorpio N is wider and taller than the Toyota Fortuner. Additionally, the Scorpio N is also bigger than the Tata Safari in every dimension.
  • Mahindra Scorpio N is the only SUV with a ladder frame construction in the C and D1 SUVsegment. its arch rival, the 2nd gen Tata Safari, is based on a monocoque chassis while the Toyota Innova Crysta doesn’t fall in the SUV category. Additionally, the Scorpio N is the only SUV in its segment to offer 4-wheel-drive with a low-range gearbox. The Mahindra XUV700 and other C-segment SUVs offer more road-biased all-wheel-drive drivetrains.
  • Mahindra offer the Scorpio N with four powertrain options - 2.0L turbo petrol with manual, 2.0L turbo petrol with automatic, 2.2L turbo diesel with manual and 2.2L turbo diesel with automatic. Additionally, the diesel variants of the Scorpio N carry a premium of Rs. 50,000 over the corresponding petrol variants.
  • Mahindra Scorpio N is the most powerful petrol SUV in C- and D1-segment of SUVs. Its 2.0L turbo petrol engine produces 203PS of power and 370Nm of torque with the 6-speed manual and 380Nm of torque with the 6-speed automatic transmission.
  • Mahindra offer the new Scorpio N 4-wheel-drive with both manual and automatic transmissions. The only other SUV in the segment that offers 4-wheel-drive is the Mahindra XUV700. However, the 4-wheel-drive option in the XUV700 is only available with the automatic transmission.
Disadvantages

  • The Bolero lacks a couple of must-have features, which include tilt steering wheel, powered outside rear view mirrors, automatic climate control, touchscreen infotainment system and steering-mounted controls.

  • The 1.5L turbo diesel engine of the Bolero offers a mere 76PS of power at 3600rpm and 210Nm of torque between 1600rpm and 2200rpm. The power and torque output of the Bolero’s diesel engine are considerably lower than its own cousin — the Bolero Neo. Furthermore, since the Bolero weighs over 1.6 tonnes, it offers low torque-to-weight ratio, which could make it hard to gain any momentum with a full load of passengers.

  • Since the top variant of the Bolero is priced above the Rs. 10 lakh ex-showroom price bracket, it attracts a higher road tax in several states, making it even more expensive than what it already is.

  • In a typical car launch, the manufacturer commences bookings ahead of the launch and deliveries. In the Scorpio N’s case, Mahindra decided to announce the prices of only the manual 2-wheel-drive variants and announced that bookings would commence from July 30. While this practice creates more hype around the product, it does leave potential buyers in a tough spot as it makes it difficult to select a variant and drivetrain based on their budget.
  • Mahindra do not offer the Scorpio N 6-seater in any of its lower variants. Only the Z8L variant of the Scorpio N offers the option of captain seats. Additionally, the 6-seater variants are only available with 2-wheel-drive manual and automatic variants.
  • The Mahindra Scoprio N comes with a poor segregation of features across all of its variants. For instance, the mid-spec Z6 variant misses out on automatic climate control, LED projector headlamps, side and curtain airbags, chrome grille and tyre pressure monitoring system. Additionally, only the Z8L 4WD AT comes with a wireless phone charger whereas no variant of the diesel manual Scorpio N comes with alloy wheels, save for Z8L.
  • With all that power and weight of the body-on-frame Mahindra Scorpio N, we expect it to deliver poor fuel efficiency. Mahindra have not revealed the fuel efficiency of any of the Scorpio N’s variants and we expect them to stand below segment standards.
  • Unlike the Thar, the Mahindra Scorpio N misses out on the 4-wheel-drive option with the turbo petrol engine. Additionally, Mahindra neither offer a locking rear differential with the Scorpio N nor the multi-drive modes, which the Scorpio N diesel offers.

Expert Verdict

Price & Value: Bolero is more affordable to buy.

Performance & Mileage: Scorpio-N delivers better performance with more power and torque, whereas Bolero focuses on efficiency and lower running costs.

Features & Safety: Feature-wise, Bolero offers the richest equipment list. Bolero misses out on some basic safety, functional or convenience features that rivals provide.

Which one should you buy? Choose the Mahindra Bolero B8 if your priorities are a lower on-road price and better fuel efficiency. Consider the Mahindra Scorpio-N Z8L 4WD 7 Seater if you value stronger performance, more cabin space and more boot space. Overall, the Mahindra Scorpio-N Z8L 4WD 7 Seater offers the better balance for buyers who prioritise stronger performance and more cabin space.
