Israel Defence Forces (IDF) willing to buy the Indian automobile major Mahindra & Mahindra's utility vehicle Scorpio.The IDF is testing Scorpio , the first off-road vehicle produced by the leading Indian automobile manufacturer , which is a fairly modern vehicle with a turbo diesel engine that was developed in Europe and complies to updated EU standards.

Scorpio has a manual gearbox but the model to be sold in Israel will have an automatic gearbox manufactured by General Motors Company , which is still under development.Mahindra & Mahindra's flagship utility vehicle , which already had made its mark in some European countries , had main advantage of its price.The model that will be sold in Israel will cost only USD 7 , 000.

The Elul Group Ltd , Mahindra's defence division in Israel -- which does not import vehicles , will reportedly arrange regular imports and will seek a franchisee from local vehicle market to sell the car.If Mahindra decides to market the Scorpio in Israel , it will be the cheapest diesel automatic off-road vehicle in the Israeli market.
