Both hp and torque are light. I bet this gives them some headroom for improvements in newer models. Look and Ford just upping the new scorpion 6.7 by what 65 lbs of torque.

I'd fully expect the 2.2 to be able to easily hit 165-176 hp and 264-286 lbs of torque if Mahindra wanted it to. Of course by that token the Ford 6.7 should be over 500 hp

By time I am in the market (2013 i hope) the newer frame and body will be out with a power bump to match.
