Mahindra's Scorpio N pickup to launch as lifestyle vehicle.

Unlike pickup loving markets like the USA or Australia, India has not accepted the pickup truck with only Toyota and Isuzu currently selling their pickups in India. The Hilux is a niche highend offering while the Isuzu is priced at the lower end.

The Scorpio N pickup will be tough and have a design which is similar to the SUV but it will have some small tweaks to make it tougher looking. There would be bigger wheels and 4x4 would be standard while only a diesel is expected to be offered.

Called Global Pik up concept, the Scorpio N pickup will be having a different name but the Scorpio brand would be attached. We do not think the Scorpio N pickup will be a commercial offering as it will be catering to premium lifestyle oriented owners but they could have a no frills base version for the commerical pick up space. The Scorpio N brand is strong and the pickup would be an interesting choice if not as volume centric as the SUVs.
