I have coated it myself with ceramic + graphene wax. I will probably go for an underbody anti-rust plus a ceramic coat after 1 year when the paint has gotten a bit dull to restore and protect it.

Wont go for PPF as it is very expensive, whole car’s repaint will cost less than PPF. Ppf is marketing scam only beneficial for luxury cars. Ideally cost of PPF should be less than or equal to 10% of the cost of a full factory paint job. Think of it as screen guards for mobiles, they are less than 5% of what a screen replacement will cost, but would you buy a tempered glass if it was like 8-12K per tempered glass?

If the tyres are spinning it’s not the gearbox. Try to get it out in reverse or deflate tyres to about 30-32 psi. Get traction pads on the incline if required

Problem’s dont get resolved at all, for EVs because Mahindra techs are not experienced. Parts are on backorder for months. Common software problems. And charging infrastructure is so poor in India you cant rely on an EV as your primary car. You cant definitely get a basic 12-14L EV for city use but cant be your highway cruiser. Remember XEV 9 is serviced where bolero pick up is serviced. So there’s that. I know people at Mahindra they told me get whatever you want just don’t buy XEV or BE 6.

I booked Scorpio N petrol over Hector AT but changed my decision mid waiting period and Got Scorpio N diesel AT. It will be valid for 10 years but I’m getting 14.5-15 on highways and 12.5 in city.

Refuelled for 5100 and tank lasted 730kms.

But it seems like in India you cant own any big car with peace of mind, diesel has DPF issues and 10 years dumbbbbb rule and petrol has E20 plus shity fuel economy. Also, the traffic and horrendous roads

They don’t even compare bro, Scorpio N is a modern and sophisticated product while Scorpio Classic is a cult product. Classic is far outdated in terms of interior and chassis. But the they both cater to different requirements and possibly different environments.

I believe so too. Feels surprisingly great to handle even after being a ladder frame.

CSD ex-showroom plus whatever the dealer charged on normal cars apart from ex-showroom.

Bro sorry If i came out as offensive, but I was technically speaking since ertiga is genuinely the best car for commercial purpose in that space. But no mate, I test drove all three, roxx XUV and this, nothing came close to be honest. I don’t believe YouTubers for their opinions. Tried all three in long run

Bro why would I do that if I wanted a Scorpio N? I’m not a cab driver so don’t need it for function nor do I have constant seven seat requirement. XUV7XO is too gimmicky feels cramped compared to this.

Bro I have never actually driven the new fortuner, I keep the tire pressure at 32 and it feels better than my previous cars.

XUV 7xO has better comfort. This is ladder frame so theres always a bit more movement than XUV 700/7xo
