Provided is a thermoplastic resin composition comprising polypropylene and a multi-block copolymer. The thermoplastic resin composition including the polypropylene and the multi-block copolymer exhibits excellent scratch resistance, and thus may be usefully used as a resin composition in the manufacturing of products requiring scratch resistance, such as automotive interior materials.
