Mahindra Scorpio has undergone several changes over its long product cycle spanning 15 years. It received radical changes in the last generation leap in 2014, albeit the facelift gets subtle cosmetic tweaks, styling updates to the cabin, additional kit, a new manual transmission and a more powerful engine. While an all-new Scorpio is expected to be launched by 2020, the facelift bridges the gap until the next-gen Scorpio arrives. In this comparison, we bring together the old and the new Scorpio to find out how different are they from each other.
