Prices for the BS6 Mahindra Scorpio are out and reveal that Mahindra has priced the car aggressively even though the starting price has increased by a couple of lakhs

Mahindra has recently updated the Scorpio to comply with the stringent emission norms. Prices of the BS6 Mahindra Scorpio start at Rs. 11.98 lakh and go all the way up to Rs.15.58 lakh (ex-showroom). In comparison, the BS-4 Scorpio had a starting price of Rs. 10.15 lakh, which translates to a price hike of almost Rs. 2.00 lakh when you compare it with the starting price of the updated model range. However, a reason for this huge gap is that with the price hike and the BS6 updates, the car misses out on the base-spec S3 variant that was available earlier. It also loses 2 engine options and the optional 4WD system.
