2022 Mahindra Scorpio-N SUV features revealed

The Mahindra Scorpio has always been a C-Segment SUV, but with the new Scorpio-N, Mahindra will give it enough features to jump it to the D-Segment tier. The company unveiled the new Scorpio-N recently, and though we got a good look at it, we didn’t know much about the available powertrains and features. The Scorpio-N will launch on 27th June 2022, but before the launch, we have all new details available thanks to a new leak. 

Over the years, Mahindra gave a lot of subtle updates and facelifts to the Scorpio, which will also be on sale alongside the new Scorpio-N. 2022 also marks Scorpio’s 20th anniversary month. Hence, that’s when the new Scorpio-N, which Mahindra calls the ‘Big Daddy of SUVs’, will make its official debut.

Mahindra revealed the exteriors of the car except for the rear end. Also, the interiors are not yet revealed. However, we know the exterior will continue with a boxy design similar to the old Scorpio. Although, the SUV will grow in all dimensions – the length, width and height. The Scorpio-N will continue using a ladder-frame chassis like the old one. To go with its rugged appeal, Mahindra will also offer a 4×4 system and a low-range transfer case in a few variants.
