  • There’s also a base S3 variant with the Mahindra Scorpio, which is powered by a 2.5-litre diesel motor (75PS/200Nm, 5-speed manual) and is priced at Rs 9.97 lakh (ex-showroom New Delhi).

4x4 Variants

Both the SUVs offer shift-on-fly 4WD (four-wheel-drive) system with their top-spec optional variants, Tata Safari Storme VX 4X4 and Mahindra Scorpio S11 4WD. However, the Tata is not more affordable than the Mahindra, but also appears to be a more capable off-roader with additional tech on board.

Prices (ex-showroom, New Delhi)

Mahindra Scorpio S11 4WD Tata Safari Storme VX 4x4
Rs 16.01 lakh Rs 15.33 lakh (- Rs 68,000)

What more the Safari Storme offers to aid off-roading?

  • Compared to the Scorpio 4WD, the Safari Storme 4x4 gets a limited-slip differential since the first-gen model. What a limited-slip differential does is send power to the wheel which has the maximum traction. The Scorpio, on the other hand, has an open differential which doesn't prevent slippage
  • The Safari also has disc brakes on all four wheels while the Scorpio offers drum brakes at the rear
  • The Safari gets heated outside rearview mirrors for all-season visibility
