Mahindra Scorpio N Pickup Spotted Before India Launch
The Indian automobile market is once again abuzz with activity. Mahindra’s much-awaited Scorpio N Pickup Truck has recently been spotted testing across several regions, including Maharashtra, sparking fresh speculation around its imminent launch. The company is reportedly preparing to unveil this powerful pickup at a grand event on 15 August 2025.
Bold Design and Rugged Styling
The design of Mahindra’s upcoming pickup truck is heavily inspired by the Scorpio N SUV. According to reports, the vehicle is expected to be offered in both single-cab and double-cab variants. The test model featured several prominent elements, including a large Twin Peaks grille, sharp LED headlamps, a wide bonnet, and muscular wheel arches.
With an extended wheelbase, the loading area of the vehicle appears larger than usual — a design choice tailored for users who may want to use the vehicle for both commercial and personal purposes.
Striking a balance between ruggedness and modern aesthetics, the vehicle is expected to feature new alloy wheels, bold bumpers, flared arches, and distinctive orange accents — all contributing to a strong road presence.
Powerful Engine and Dynamic Driving Modes
The Scorpio N Pickup Truck is likely to be powered by the same 2.2-litre mHawk diesel engine that produces 175 BHP and 400 Nm of torque. It may come equipped with both 6-speed manual and 6-speed automatic transmission options, catering to performance enthusiasts.
To further enhance the driving experience, Mahindra may offer the pickup with a 4WD (four-wheel drive) system. Additionally, the vehicle is expected to support multi-terrain modes such as Normal, Grass-Gravel-Snow, Mud-Ruts, and Sand, offering better control across diverse terrains.
High-Tech Features with a Focus on Safety
In line with the company’s global ambitions, the Scorpio N Pickup is expected to come packed with a host of modern and premium features, potentially giving it a competitive edge in international markets. Likely features include:
- Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) to improve safety and driving intelligence
- Multiple seating configurations including single-cab and double-cab layouts, offering flexibility to users
- A large touchscreen infotainment system with 5G connectivity support for a technologically advanced cabin
- Sunroof and semi-automatic parking system to add a premium touch to the segment
- Multiple airbags and advanced safety systems to ensure better protection for occupants
With these advanced offerings, the Scorpio N Pickup appears ready to make a strong impact not only in the Indian market but globally as well.
India Launch Timeline and Expected Pricing
Although Mahindra has not made any official announcement regarding the pickup’s India launch, reports suggest that its global debut is expected first in South Africa and Australia. The Indian launch is likely to follow shortly thereafter.
In India, the Scorpio N Pickup is expected to launch in late 2025 or early 2026. The vehicle is anticipated to carry a starting ex-showroom price of around ₹25 lakh, placing it in the premium segment with a strong value proposition.
Competitors in the Segment
Once launched, the Mahindra Scorpio N Pickup Truck will go head-to-head with established players like the Toyota Hilux and Isuzu D-Max V-Cross. However, Mahindra’s offering is expected to arrive at a comparatively more affordable price point, which could attract a new wave of customers in the pickup segment.
Conclusion
Mahindra’s Scorpio N Pickup Truck has already managed to capture attention with its commanding presence during road tests. With its solid build, powerful engine, cutting-edge features, and global-ready design, it shows strong potential to become a game-changer in the premium pickup truck space.
All eyes are now on 15 August 2025, when the company is expected to make major announcements at a grand launch event, potentially revealing more about the truck’s features, pricing, and availability.
