May 25, 2011 02:13 am | Updated 02:13 am IST - MUMBAI:

Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) on Tuesday announced the launch of Scorpio Ex, a new entry-level offering from the Scorpio stable. Powered by a 75 bhp m2DiCR engine, the Scorpio Ex offers great drivability and refined performance along with an impressive 14 km/l mileage (as per ARAI).

This new offering is attractively priced at Rs.7.21 lakh (ex-showroom Pune, for BS-IV).

The new 2.5 litre m2DiCR engine is equipped with the fuel-saving micro hybrid technology, which allows it to intelligently switch the engine into the standby mode, when not required, ensuring lower fuel consumption while being more environment-friendly too. Compliant with stringent BS-IV emission norms, the Scorpio Ex emits lower emissions leading to a reduced carbon footprint.

Additional features include crash protection crumple zones, to protect passengers in the unfortunate event of a collision and the digital immobiliser which protects the vehicle from theft. The Scorpio Ex is available in four attractive colours — Rocky Beige, Diamond White, Fiery Black and Mist Silver. Commenting on the launch, Vivek Nayer, Senior Vice-President, Marketing, Automotive Division, M&M, said “At Mahindra, our endeavour has always been to offer the best-in-class products and this new offering from the Scorpio stable is no exception. With its easy drivability, great mileage and refined performance,

“I am sure that the Scorpio Ex will be an instant hit with young customers looking for an affordable entry point into the Scorpio franchise. An unmitigated success in the SUV segment since its launch, the Scorpio has kept up its momentum with constant up-gradations and new offerings.”
