Like the XUV700, the 175hp 2.2 diesel Scorpio-N gets three on-road drive modes – Zip, Zap and Zoom – where peak power is produced only in Zap and Zoom modes. In Zip mode, the power is limited to 138hp.

All three engines come with a 6-speed manual gearbox as standard, while the higher-spec diesel and the turbo-petrol engine can also be paired to a 6-speed automatic gearbox.
