Mahindra Scorpio N facelift: What do the new spy shots reveal?

The recent test mules of the Scorpio N facelift were draped in heavy camouflage, just like the ones before them. The cutouts on the front fascia suggest minimal changes. The grille and air dam appear to have horizontal slats. The bumper has been tweaked as well. However, the design of the LED headlamps and DRLs remains unchanged. The profile of the SUV is identical to the current model, apart from a new look for the 18-inch alloys. The recent spy shots haven’t revealed any details about the rear section, but we don’t expect it to get completely revamped.

The new spy shots offer a look at the interior of the Mahindra Scorpio N facelift. Its dashboard rocks a larger touchscreen infotainment system, likely the 10.25-inch unit from the Thar Roxx. The current version of the SUV has an 8-inch display. We can also make out another 10.25-inch display on the driver’s side. The vertical AC vents have been aligned horizontally on the facelift. Their position remains below the touchscreen infotainment system. The physical buttons have been retained. The centre console gets new highlights and accents that exude a premium look.

Things will remain the same under the hood of the Mahindra Scorpio N. The current model comes in 2 engine options. The 2.0-litre mStallion turbo petrol engine generates a maximum power output of 203hp and 370Nm of torque. It can be linked to a 6-speed manual or automatic gearbox. Meanwhile, the 2.2-litre mHawk diesel engine produces a maximum power output of 132hp and 300Nm of torque. It can be mated to a 6-speed manual or automatic gearbox.

Final Thoughts

While Mahindra has not revealed any details about the launch of the Scorpio N facelift, we expect it to launch in the next couple of months. Prices for the current model start at Rs 13.49 lakh and go up to Rs 24.34 lakh. Expect the new model to demand a small premium. Upon launch, it will rival the likes of the Tata Safari, MG Hector, Jeep Compass, Hyundai Creta, and Kia Seltos in India.
