Mahindra has been testing the Scorpio facelift for quite a long; the SUV is expected to be launched in the month of October probably before Diwali. This is the first major overhaul of what is almost a decade old design; according to the spy-shots the 2014 Scorpio is getting radical upgrades inside-out. Mechanically, the SUV is likely to remain same but expect alterations to the suspension setup to reduce body-roll and improve rideability. The major rival of the Scorpio, Tata Safari is also getting a makeover, it will also land later this year. A report in the Economic Times states that the Scorpio is coming this October.

Speaking of the changes, the spy-shots reveal that the Scorpio gets projector headlamps, expect day-time-running-LEDs along with a tweaked grille and bumper; while at the back it flaunts LED taillamps. The side profile is kept almost identical but it gets a new set of alloys; the side and rear profile seems to be elusively changed compared to the front end. On the inside, it gets an entire new dashboard, an instrumentation cluster with a large drive info system, the central console gets a large touch screen infotainment system probably with a Sat-Nav.
