Mahindra is all set to launch the new Scorpio-N on June 27, 2022. Ahead of its debut, we got our hands on its dimensions, thanks to a partial leak of the SUV’s owner’s manual. There are also a few other details that have been revealed.
- Scorpio-N is longer and wider than the current-gen Scorpio
- Dual zone AC, cruise control present on higher variants
- Will get 4WD with terrain modes, including low range
Mahindra Scorpio-N: dimensions, features and equipment details
According to the leaked document, the Scorpio-N measures 4,662mm in length, 1,917mm in width and 1,870mm in height; the SUV sits on a 2,750mm wheelbase. This means the Scorpio-N is around 206mm longer and 100mm wider, but is around 125mm lower in height than the current Scorpio, which will soon be renamed Scorpio Classic. Coming to its wheelbase, the Scorpio-N is a tad longer too, however, it remains to be seen how much this translates into actual cabin room. The Scorpio-N will come with a three-row cabin, with the third row facing forwards. The side-facing third-row set-up will be left for the Scorpio Classic.
