Mahindra eKUV100 Expected Release Date:
 
Mahindra & Mahindra is expected to launch the KUV100 NXT-based electric vehicle eKUV100 in India this year, most likely before the middle of 2022. It debuted in production-ready form at the 2020 Auto Show, with a 15.9 kWh battery pack and a 54.4 PS electric motor. It's an SUV (Sports Utility Vehicle) with good ground clearance that's good for off-roading.
 


Mahindra eKUV100 Price:
 


The Mahindra eKUV100 is likely to cost between Rs 9-13 lakh in terms of price. The eKUV100 will most likely be the cheapest electric car on the Indian market when it debuts. 
 


Mahindra eKUV100 Features :
 


Apart from the newly designed badging, the electric KUV comes without a gear lever. The redesigned closed-off front grille comes with little arrow-shaped inserts, six of which are painted in blue. The two charging port flaps, one on each front fender are the most noticeable improvements. Apart from that, the headlights and taillights have blue accents.
The new eKUV100, according to Mahindra, has additional connection features like remote diagnostics, cabin pre-cooling, and real-time location monitoring. The driver's driving pattern and battery status could be monitored by the electric compact crossover. All four power windows, power steering, a touch screen infotainment system with app connectivity and at least two airbags are standard on the eKUV100. It has a 170 mm ground clearance, which is sufficient to navigate most uneven roads and potholes without colliding.
 


Mahindra eKUV100 Performance:
 


The Mahindra eKUV100 is equipped with an automatic transmission. The eKUV100 commercial has a 15.9kWh battery pack and a 54.4hp, 120 Nm electric motor. It has a range of 147 km and can be charged to 80% in 55 minutes using a fast charger. A full charge on a standard charger takes about 5 hr 45 min.
 


Mahindra eKUV100 Capacity:
 


The Mahindra eKUV100 can accommodate 5 people. It boasts a 243-litre boot capacity and when the back seats are folded, the capacity increases to 473 litres.
 


Mahindra eKUV100 Rivals :
 


The Mahindra eKUV100 will compete with the likes of Mahindra eVerito and Tata Tigor EV after its launch.

Mahindra Scorpio  Expected Release Date:
 

The all-new Scorpio, one of India's most popular SUVs, is set to arrive in the country in the second half of 2022.
For the first time, the Scorpio gets an all-new design that keeps the traditional upright aesthetic elements. It will enter its fourth generation with significant cosmetic and internal improvements.
 

 Mahindra Scorpio  Price:
 

The expected price of the new Mahindra Scorpio is estimated to be around ₹10-14 Lakh. 
 

 Mahindra Scorpio  Features :
 

Sharp-looking headlamps with modest chrome treatment are standard on the new Mahindra Scorpio's front end. Higher trims are expected to have an LED projector, while cheaper trims are anticipated to have Halogens. Chrome accents the new-look multi-slat Mahindra grille, giving it a more expensive appearance. It has a tall bumper with C-shaped surrounds for the fog lamp housings, which also serve as LED daytime running lights. In the higher models, the fog lamps are expected to be LED units as well. While the SUV's boxy upright shape is recognisable, all of the body panels are brand new. The new SUV is substantially larger, with a butch and muscular body. It comes with strong character lines, a kink in the window line, a side-hinged rear door, and vertical tail lamps.
On the inside, all rows will have forward-facing seats, and the dashboard will be similar to the Toyota Land Cruiser LC 200. It features a huge infotainment touchscreen bordered on both sides by AC vents, as well as buttons for the infotainment and HVAC systems. The USB ports and power outlet are located further down in the centre console, right forward of the gear lever. On the new Scorpio, there will be a digital instrument cluster in select models, as well as rear AC vents with separate blower controls.
 

 Mahindra Scorpio  Performance:
 

The new Scorpio is built on a ladder frame chassis that has been modified by Mahindra. The new Scorpio will be available with either 2.0-litre petrol or a 2.2-litre diesel engine. On both engines, Mahindra is expected to offer both manual and automatic gearboxes, with four-wheel drive presumably reserved for the top-spec models.
 

 Mahindra Scorpio  Capacity:
 

The Mahindra Scorpio is believed to have a seven-seat interior. It has a fuel capacity of 60-litres and boasts a boot space of 460-litres.

Planning to buy the Mahindra Scorpio N? 5 things to know before spending your money

Mahindra plans aggressive growth by expanding its SUV lineup, increasing production capacity, and adopting AI technology for efficiency.

Mahindra & Mahindra reported strong April sales in 2027, with vehicles sold increasing by 14%, driven by three-wheelers and exports.

India's used-car market is set to grow, potentially becoming the third largest globally by 2030, driven by demand and changing ownership trends.

India's used-car market to become world’s number 3 by FY31: Redseer report

The Fortuner enhances the Scorpio's appeal, while the Defender and Wrangler offer luxury and hardcore off-roading options, respectively.

For well over two decades, the Mahindra Scorpio has been an indomitable force in the SUV market in India and its machismo image as a strong and no-nonsense vehicle has been highlighted as much by its many customers over these years as it has by Bollywood action thrillers that portray it as a physics-defying automotive engineering marvel. Is there anything that the Scorpio cannot do - fly, bite, roar and race? At a time when SUVs are a dime a dozen in the Indian passenger vehicle segment, <a target="_blank" href="https://auto.hindustantimes.com/new-cars/mahindra/scorpio">Scorpio</a> has thus far retained its inherent strengths of being a capable drive option without pampering its owner or passengers inside.

But evolution is inevitable, even among cars. Past laurels and claimed gravity-defying capabilities alone may not keep you going strong. And this is perhaps why Mahindra has been testing the new Scorpio for a considerable period of time, eventually launching it this past week as an entirely new package. Named Scorpio-N, the latest Scorpio will be sold alongside the existing model but apart from part of the name, has nothing in common with it. The Scorpio-N hopes to benefit from the moniker but is confident of paving its own special path forward and replicate the success that <a target="_blank" href="https://auto.hindustantimes.com/new-bikes/mahindra">Mahindra</a> has had with the updated <a target="_blank" href="https://auto.hindustantimes.com/new-cars/mahindra/thar">Thar</a> and the XUV700.

Mahindra has been perfecting a simple art for success in the SUV war, one that is based on four fundamental pillars - masculine yet stylish design, robust build, premium and upmarket cabin, and a feature-loaded package. Whether it is the updated Thar or the new XUV700 or even the <a target="_blank" href="https://auto.hindustantimes.com/new-cars/mahindra/bolero">Bolero</a> <a target="_blank" href="https://auto.hindustantimes.com/new-bikes/techoelectra/neo">Neo</a>, these four crucial aspects have become massively integral to concentrated efforts of dominating the SUV space because, well, raw muscles alone won't quite cut it for the new-age Indian customer.

And as such, the new Mahindra Scorpio-N too appears as a very real manifestation of all these four factors coming together. Mahindra claims that the top variants will even take on D-segment SUVs and while that is a massively bold claim, does the Scorpio-N have what it takes to obliterate its direct rivals?

Here's the first full-drive review of Mahindra Scorpio-N:

<h2>Mahindra Scorpio-N visual highlights:</h2>Scorpio-N has been built from the ground up as a completely new product. As such, it is yet another fresh take from Mahindra about how modern SUVs, according to it, ought to be like - dominating road presence but with plenty of stylish cues from every side and angle.

Part of that dominating road presence comes courtesy a slatted grille with plenty of chrome additions on it and a muscular bonnet with strong character lines. And the stylish cues come from the all-new twin-pod housing for the projector LED headlights and the C-shaped LED DRL units which appear like the stinger tail of a <a target="_blank" href="https://auto.hindustantimes.com/new-bikes/aftekmotors/scorpion">Scorpion</a> - mighty clever!

There's also the new Mahindra logo for SUVs - first shown on the XUV700 - but even if one removes this, it is amply clear that this here is a vehicle from the Mahindra camp.

This is also true from the side with the Scorpio-N standing on 17 or 18-inch wheels depending on the variant. There is nothing radical about the design of the alloys, or the entire side profile of the vehicle for that matter, but it is clean profile meant to underline the road presence of the vehicle. Longer, wider and with a longer wheelbase than the Scorpio, the Scorpio-N benefits from large windows, humungous ORVMs, chrome on the door handles and a chrome underline under the window which shapes in to resemble a Scorpion tail again. And although the newer model is lower by over 100 mm than the Scorpio, it does get sidesteps and has a ground clearance of over 180 mm.

But move to the rear profile and the dominating presence diminishes a fair bit. Visually, the Scorpio-N somehow appears narrower than what the number would suggest and the vertically-oriented LED tail light units resemble light design we have previously seen on other models. In fact, there is even a bit of Xylo-like overall rear design, complete with the side-opening door carried forward from the Scorpio. Could Mahindra designers have equipped the vehicle with an upward-opening trunk door, especially since the third row inside gets conventional bench seats and not jump seats? Sure. But not.

<h2>Mahindra Scorpio-N cabin highlights:</h2>Step inside the Scorpio-N and the complete overhaul is even more evident over the Scorpio. On the contrary, there is some degree of influence from the <a target="_blank" href="https://auto.hindustantimes.com/new-cars/mahindra/xuv700">XUV700</a>, complete with the black and brown colour theme on the dashboard, side doors and upholstery. The dashboard itself has plenty of brushed satin addition and houses the vertically-oriented air vents and the eight-inch AdrenoX-powered infotainment screen. Personally, I feel the screen size could have been at least two inches bigger but that aside, it is quite easy to use and responds to touch inputs precisely.

The software inside the screen on our test unit was, however, a pre-production version which meant it was also quite buggy and often went off without any reason. I believe, and hope, that this is fixed on units sold to actual customers.

I also wish that the driver display on offer was an all-digital screen rather than the semi-digital cluster. It, however, is sufficiently large.

The center console has been designed well and houses the gear unit although hard plastics all around here makes the otherwise premium appeal lose a bit of its sheen. There is also an electric sunroof but going by what several rivals are now offering, it could have been a panoramic glass rather than the conventional size it is at present.

But as far as space and comfort are concerned, the Scorpio-N fares reasonably well with generous leg room, knee room and head room for passengers in the second row. Under-thigh support is also quite impressive which means that long-distance travel in this vehicle is likely to be quite a comfortable experience. Do remember though that the Scorpio comes with both six as well as seven-seat configurations which means dedicated seats in the middle row would further increase the comfort quotient.

The all-important third-row seats are, well, nothing much to write home about. The tumble down function on the second-row opens the entry area fairly well but space is still rather limited. The bench seats aren't too comfortable either and there are no dedicated AC vents here. Instead, one gets a cup holder on either side and a 12V charging point.

Even if one does decide to fold the last-row seats, these don't form a flat bed entirely which means luggage stored here may toss and tumble if there's an excitable driver behind the wheel.

And why won't one be excitable when behind the wheel of the Scorpio-N?

<h2>Mahindra Scorpio-N drive highlights:</h2>The Scorpio-N is offered in two engine options and two transmission choices. There is the mStallion turbo petrol engine that's good for 200 bhp and 380 Nm of max torque while the 2.2-litre mHawk diesel engine offers two separate tune states depending on the variant. The Z2 variant has an output of 130 bhp while Z4 and upper variants see the diesel motor putting out 172 bhp with 400 Nm of torque.

Since diesel is still the darling at Mahindra, our test unit was a Z8 variant with the diesel engine mated to an automatic transmission box. And in this guise, the Scopio-N is quite a bully.

There is loads and loads of power at the beck and call of throttle inputs, and the sensible response from the motor at the press of the accelerator gets the vehicle moving with a sure-footed sense of purpose. While adequately capable in low-speed city traffic crawls, the Scorpio-N truly plays on the front foot when being aggressively pushed to pull ahead. Triple-digit speeds come without any fuss while the stability is typically Mahindra which means a reassuring aura when hurtling forward. This is also helped big-time by a solid steering-wheel set up that is flexible enough for tight turns and yet rock-steady on straight lines.

But if there's one thing that shines more than all else, it is the automatic gearbox. Crisp and precise, the AT unit is one of the best I have ever seen on any Mahindra and it slots the right number with charming ease to help the Scorpio-N do its thing. Not once was I second-doubted when looking at overtaking a vehicle ahead, the Scorpio-N completing the task effortlessly each time.

But for all its superb mix between city and highway drive traits, the Scorpio-N still has some of the flaws that Mahindra vehicles tend to have. The brakes are a tad too soft which means these need to be pressed harder to gain the desired stopping bite. The suspension, perhaps because it is tuned to tackle off-road conditions as well, is a bit too jumpy and there is also a fair degree of body roll for passengers in the middle.

But all in all, the Scorpio-N knows it is in its rugged nature that many would find solace and as such, Mahindra is offering the vehicle with both 4x4 and 4x2 configurations. The 4x4 gets Mahindra's latest 4XPLOR Intelligent Terrain Management System with four off-road modes - sand, mud, grass and snow.

Pricing for the AT and AWD variants, however, are awaited.

<h2>Mahindra Scorpio-N verdict:</h2>Scorpio-N is pompously aware that it has all the ingredients to find favour among SUV buyers. It is not just about butch looks and raw aggression but a certain sense of finesse and new-age additions. Here is a product that widens the list of options - both for buyers as well as for Mahindra.

Scorpio-N isn't the most spacious of vehicles and a bulk of the cutting-edge features are reserved for the top variant(s) which carry a sizable price tag, especially when compared to its direct rivals like Hyundai <a target="_blank" href="https://auto.hindustantimes.com/new-cars/hyundai/creta">Creta</a>, <a target="_blank" href="https://auto.hindustantimes.com/new-cars/kia">Kia</a> <a target="_blank" href="https://auto.hindustantimes.com/new-cars/kia/seltos">Seltos</a>, <a target="_blank" href="https://auto.hindustantimes.com/new-cars/tata">Tata</a> <a target="_blank" href="https://auto.hindustantimes.com/new-cars/tata/safari">Safari</a> and others. But if the success of the Thar and XUV700 is anything to go by, the Scorpio-N too is more than likely to benefit from handsome looks and a premium cabin, complete with a plethora of engine and transmission choices.

Bookings for the Scorpio-N start from July 30 with deliveries scheduled to begin from this festive season on a first-come-first-serve basis. It is also important to note here that the prices announced so far are introductory and valid only for the first 25,000 bookings.
