Mahindra recently launched the Scorpio N SUV in the Australian market and bagged numerous positive reviews from automotive journalists across the country. Now, in a bid to attract even more attention and prove its product, Mahindra just set a new Guinness World Record in Australia.
In fact, the new Mahindra Scorpio N now holds the Guinness World Record for “Fastest crossing of the Simpson Desert by a production vehicle”. This extremely demanding 385-kilometre journey was completed in just 13 hours and piloted by Gene Corbett and Ben Robinson.
That being said, the new Mahindra Scorpio N SUV is offered in just two trim levels in the Australian market – Z8 and Z8L. Furthermore, the Indian manufacturer is also offering the optional 4Xplore four-wheel-drive system as part of the standard equipment in Australia.
Some of the noticeable off-road-worthy features in the Mahindra Scorpio N SUV include a mechanical differential lock, low-range gearbox, electronic brake differential, and multiple off-road modes. The latter comes with 4 modes – NORMAL(2WD), GRASS/SNOW, MUD & RUTS, and SAND.
Coming to the powertrain, Mahindra is offering the Scorpio N SUV in Australia with its famed 2.2-litre, 4-cylinder, turbocharged, diesel engine. This engine in the Mahindra Scorpio N is tuned to produce 172.5bhp and 400Nm of peak torque.
Though the Mahindra Scorpio N SUV can be specified with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 6-speed automatic transmission in India, Mahindra is offering only the 6-speed automatic transmission variant in Australia.
Also, the ‘drive away’ price for the Mahindra Scorpio N SUV starts at $41,990 for the Z8 variant and goes all the way up to $45,999 for the Z8L variant. Furthermore, the Mahindra Scorpio N SUV is available in 5 shades – Deep Forest, Everest White, Napoli Black, Dazzling Silver, and Rage Red.
