Mahindra Scorpio N has been a popular choice among buyers ever since it was launched nearly a year ago. For a long time, Mahindra has been facing supply chain issues leading to extended waiting periods. However, the carmaker has recently been working on ramping up production of the Scorpio N along with the XUV700 and Thar, and it now shows as the waiting periods for the Scorpio N are on a steady decline. Though the waiting period has reduced considerably, it still stretches to over a year, depending on the variant.
Mahindra Scorpio N waiting period details
There are five trims available on the Scorpio N – Z2, Z4, Z6, Z8 and Z8L. While in May, it was the Z4 trim that had the most waiting period, it is now the Z8 trim which commands the maximum waiting period – up to 13 months. However, the Z4 trim, with a waiting period of about 12 months, is not far behind the Z8.
Mahindra Scorpio N powertrain details
The Scorpio N gets two engine options – a 203hp, 2.0-litre turbo-petrol and a 175hp, 2.2-litre turbo-diesel engine. Both can be had with either a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic gearbox. While the Scorpio N comes with rear-wheel drive as standard, the diesel also gets four-wheel drive as an option.
