Codenamed Mahindra Z121, the next-gen Mahindra Scorpio pickup truck will be designed to compete with global models much better than its predecessor
Alongside a facelift for the Scorpio-N, Mahindra is working on a pickup truck derived from the body-on-frame SUV. Expected to be called the Mahindra Scorpio Pik Up, it will be the successor to the Mahindra Scorpio Getaway.
The Mahindra Scorpio Pik Up will be a significantly more upmarket product than the compact pickup truck that was based on the original Scorpio, now sold with a Classic suffix. Latest spy shots suggest that it will be available with features like a single-pane sunroof, 18-inch dual-tone alloy wheels, ventilated front seats, a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system, and a dual-zone automatic climate control system.
The interior of the Mahindra Scorpio Pik Up will look even more modern than the Scorpio-N, being equipped with an electronic parking brake. This will also free up more storage space in the centre console. That said, Mahindra will likely bring this feature to the Scorpio-N with the upcoming refresh. Like the SUV, the pickup truck will feature two-tone brown and black upholstery to give the cabin a premium look.

As evident in the concept version Mahindra showcased in 2023, the Scorpio Pik Up should have an exterior similar to the Scorpio-N. Expect its shared elements to include double-barrel LED headlamps, a high-set bonnet, and pronounced wheel arches. Mahindra will likely offer the new pickup truck in double-cab and single-cab versions.
Mahindra may introduce the Scorpio Pik Up with the same set of turbocharged diesel and petrol engines as the Scorpio-N. The base option could be a 2.0-litre petrol mill producing 149.14 kW (200 hp) and 370 (with 6-speed MT)/380 Nm (with 6-speed AT) of torque.

Above that, expect a 2.2-litre diesel unit that develops 97 kW (130 hp) and 300 Nm of torque, exclusively with a 6-speed manual transmission. The top option should be a 2.2-litre diesel unit that churns out 128.6 kW (172 hp) and 370 Nm (with 6-speed MT)/400 Nm (with 6-speed AT) of torque.
The Mahindra Scorpio Pik Up will likely be unveiled in the second half of the year. It is likely to be targeted more at international markets such as Australia and South Africa, where there’s a big demand for pickup trucks, than India. In the domestic market, Mahindra may position it more as a lifestyle vehicle than a commercial vehicle.
