Mahindra also displayed the recently launched Scorpio Automatic which incorporates a fully automatic 6-speed gear box and the powerful 2.2 litre mHawk engine.

''Scorpio is the first Indian brand and the first SUV in its class to offer a 6-speed fully Automatic Transmission. This new edition of one of India's most loved SUVs has been designed to make driving an effortless experience and is equipped with in-built intelligent driving modes for an effortless drive and a wide array of smart features, giving the Scorpio an even greater competitive edge in its segment,'' M&M said in a release.

The Scorpio Automatic has a fully electronically controlled automatic gearbox which results in shorter shift times and hence, improved drivability. This is a major technological improvement over earlier Automatics which were hydraulic controlled.

This is the first time in India that an automobile manufacturer has created a 4x4 track to give visitors a first hand experience of its vehicles in rough road conditions.
