The new-generation Mahindra XUV500 and Scorpio will be the next two big products to roll out from stable of the home-grown carmaker. Both models were slated to arrive early this year. Though, their launch might be delayed due to the global shortage of the semi-contactors and several other components. Ahead of its launch, the new 2021 Mahindra Scorpio was recently caught testing on camera featuring newly-designed 17-inch alloy wheels and rear disc brakes.
The spotted test mule carries the signature multi slate front grille, C-shaped LED DRLs, dual pod projector headlamps and a wide air dam at the front end. The SUV’s new-generation model also gets new roof rails, shark fin antenna, a rear spoiler, redesigned LED taillamps and high mounted stop lamps. While the new 2021 Mahindra Scorpio will share its underpinnings with the new Thar, its interior will be similar to the Marazzo MPV.
Reports suggest that the new Scorpio will have the largest touchscreen infotainment system in its segment. The SUV will have a newly-designed dashboard painted in Black and Beige shades. The new multi function steering, new instrument console and sunroof will give a refreshing look. Read – Mahindra XUV300 Electric To Offer 375km Range On Single Charge
