Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Mahindra Scorpio N
- Gets powerful turbo-petrol and diesel engines along with the option of four wheel drive.
- Looks rugged and has a commanding road presence.
- Offers good space for five people and their luggage.
- Its features list is a well-loaded balance of comfort, convenience and tech.
MG Hector
- Feels and looks premium inside and out
- Generous cabin space, comfortable for even taller passengers
- Loaded with good features like a 14-inch touchscreen, ventilated front seats, and a panoramic sunroof
- Safety kit boosted by the inclusion of ADAS
- A refined petrol engine with comfortable ride quality

Mahindra Scorpio N
- The third row is cramped with insufficient space for adults.
- Boot space is smaller than expected.
- Interior fit and finish should be better for the price.
- Ride quality isn’t as comfortable as its rivals. Stiff and bouncy especially with less load
MG Hector
- Its styling could seem too blingy to some buyers
- Has lost out on the mild-hybrid tech; still no diesel-auto combo
- Its electronics could have been more responsive
- Should have had better contoured seats and underthigh support at the rear
- Fuel efficiency of the petrol engine is still an issue
