Inside the cabin, Mahindra Scorpio facelift comes with a redesigned dashboard and a more upmarket upholstery. The centre console will also see changes and a new steering wheel will be added to give a new look. It is expected that the interiors of the new Scorpio will be inspired from the XUV500.
Under the hood, the Scorpio facelift will carryover the same 2.2-litre mHawK diesel engine that churns out a maximum power output of 120bhp. The company might tune this engine to offer better performance and efficiency.
