Can u advise if buying the scorpio 2.2 will be a good idea in the long run. I am not clear about its mileage and maintenance costs. Or is Innova a better alternative.

Hi,
Scrpio is a good option for long term usage and even for cross country usage.You canexpect mileage of around 12KMPL max.Though performance of Innova is better than Scorpio.Innova is quity costly considering there are other makes which offer good comfort and ride quality and interios space. Also recommended to test drive Mahindra Xylo.

I have owned a 2.6 CRDE scorpio for the past 2 years Maintainence on this vehicle being almost nothing Parts are also lot cheaper compared to Innova Where it comes to interior looks and cabin space Innova is a winner But overall performance is great in a scorpio with avg of 12 with a/c This also handles the ghats with easy Two trips to Goa in my car not a car to overtake me on the ghats
If you are considering a scorpio then go in for the SLE which comes witha 2.2 M Hawk engine and less of unnecesarry electronics rather than the VLX which is packed with more electronics and more problems
Hope this helps you out

I have owned a 2.6 CRDE Dx scorpio for the past 2 years Maintainence on this vehicle being almost nothing Parts are also lot cheaper compared to Innova. Innova is better in Interiors are other comfort, but I would still say Scorpio is better. Also Innova is more of a commerical vehical. If u drive alone, u look like a driver, if loaded with family, it looks like a taxi. Whereas Scorpios is Royal Car - just like Enfield Bullet.

If u are looking to buy a 2nd hand, then I'm selling my scorpio - Aug 2006 - Black - done 68000 km.

for a owner driven vehicle it is Scorpio all the way, off road is a cake walk but i find it better in the cities than my other small car. Last one year that i have been using a VLX, Service has been excellent, almost nothing spent at all...
