Mahindra Scorpio N Pickup Coming Soon in India – A New Rival to Toyota Hilux

ByTeam GaadiCraze

The Mahindra Scorpio N Pickup is one of the most exciting upcoming vehicles from Mahindra. Based on the popular Scorpio-N SUV, this new pickup truck is designed to combine rugged off-road capability with practicality for both work and lifestyle use. The model was first showcased globally as the “Global Pick Up” concept, giving us a preview of Mahindra’s future in the pickup segment. 

This new pickup is expected to target markets like India, Australia, and South Africa, where lifestyle pickup trucks are becoming increasingly popular.

Interior & Technology

Mahindra is not skimping on luxury for this “workhorse.” The cabin will likely mirror the premium feel of the Scorpio N SUV:

  •  Infotainment: A 10.25-inch or 12-inch touchscreen with wireless Android Auto and Apple Car Play.
  • Comfort: Brown leatherette upholstery, dual-zone climate control, and potentially a sunroof (a rarity in pickups).
  • Safety: 6 Airbags, Level 2 ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems), and a 5-star safety rating target.

Bold Design Inspired by Scorpio-N

The upcoming Scorpio N pickup will look very similar to the regular Scorpio-N at the front but with a completely new rear section that includes a large cargo bed.

Key design highlights include:

  • Aggressive Scorpio-N style front grille and LED headlights
  • Raised suspension for better off-road capability
  • Large loading bay / cargo bed
  • Roof rails and side steps
  • Snorkel and skid plates for extreme off-roading
  • Stylish alloy wheels and muscular body lines 

Because of the pickup body style, the vehicle will also be longer than the regular Scorpio-N, with a length of around 5,380 mm and a wheelbase of about 3,110 mm.

  • 2.0-litre turbo petrol engine (possible in some markets)

Transmission options:

  • 6-speed manual gearbox
  • 6-speed automatic gearbox

The pickup will also feature 4WD with shift-on-the-fly technology, making it suitable for off-road adventures. It is expected to include multiple terrain modes such as:

  • Normal
  • Grass / Gravel / Snow
  • Mud / Rut
  • Sand 

Expected launch in India

Mahindra is expected to market this vehicle as a premium lifestyle pickup, likely under the trademarked name Scorpio X.

The Expected Price of the Scorpio N pickup in India could be around: ₹16 lakh – ₹22 lakh (ex-showroom).

Market Rivals

The Scorpio N Pik Up will enter a niche but growing segment in India, directly competing with:

  • Toyota Hilux: The gold standard for reliability but at a higher price point.
