Interior Details Reveal Focus On Comfort And Space
While test mules usually hide interior features, this time a few cabin details were visible. The ScorpiomN pickup truck interior appears to borrow heavily from the standard Scorpio N SUV, with some additions for comfort
Notable interior features spotted include:
- Digital instrument cluster, similar to newer Mahindra models
- Wide moonroof, indicating a premium cabin experience
- Front center armrest, identical to the Scorpio-N
- Spacious rear bench, which appeared roomier than the Toyota Hilux
The rear seat space is especially important for double-cab pickup buyers and early impressions suggest Mahindra is prioritizing passenger comfort
Advanced Technology Planned For Production Model
Mahindra has already confirmed that the production version of this pickup will be packed with modern technology. These features place it well above traditional work focused pickup trucks
Confirmed highlights include:
- Level 2 ADAS, offering advanced driver assistance
- Semi-automatic parking capability, a rare feature in pickups
- 5G connectivity, enabling faster data and connected car functions
These additions show that Mahindra is positioning the pickup as a modern lifestyle vehicle rather than a basic utility truck

Multiple Terrain Modes For Off-Road Use
The Scorpio-N pickup truck is expected to carry strong off-road credentials. Mahindra has officially stated that the vehicle will offer four selectable driving modes to handle different terrain conditions
The confirmed driving modes are:
- Normal – for everyday driving
- Grass-Gravel-Snow – for slippery surfaces
- Mud-Rut – for uneven and muddy trails
- Sand – for loose and soft terrain
These modes suggest the pickup will be well-suited for adventure driving and rural conditions
Diesel Engine And Gearbox Details
The Global Pik Up Vision Concept was powered by a Gen-2 mHawk diesel engine. This engine was shown with both 6 speed manual and automatic transmission options at the concept stage
During the latest test sighting:
- The prototype was seen using a 6 speed automatic gearbox
- The engine setup is expected to remain diesel-focused
This confirms that Mahindra is testing the automatic variant extensively likely to meet lifestyle buyer expectations
