Mahindra has been hard at work to increase the production of its popular models, with the Scorpio range being one of the biggest beneficiaries. In the April-September 2024 period, wholesales of the Scorpio N and Scorpio Classic, have been averaging over 13,500 units a month, and despite that, waiting periods for both these 3-row ladder-frame SUVs have come down significantly. Here’s a variant-wise breakup of how long a buyer would have to wait for delivery if they book their new Scorpio N or Classic today.
- Higher-spec Scorpio N Z8 S has the longest delivery time
- Scorpio N Z4 petrol-AT has the shortest waiting period
- Scorpio Classic waiting period halved from up to 5 months
Mahindra Scorpio N waiting period

---|---|---|---|---|
Variant | Petrol-MT | Petrol-AT | Diesel-MT | Diesel-AT |
Z2 | 1 | - | 1 | - |
Z4 | 1 | 0.5 | 1-1.5 | 1-1.5 |
Z6 | - | - | 1-1.5 | 1-1.5 |
Z8 S | 2-2.5 | 2-2.5 | 2-2.5 | 2-2.5 |
Z8 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
Z8 L | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
The table shows that the entry-level Z2 petrol and diesel variants have a waiting period of just a month now, a significant reduction from the over five-month period, a few months ago. Meanwhile, the Scorpio N Z4 petrol-AT has the shortest delivery time of less than a month. It is the higher-spec Z8 S, which has the longest waiting period, of up to 2.5 months, regardless of which engine or gearbox option the buyer chooses. Buyers who opt for the mid-spec diesel Z4 and Z6 will have to wait about 1.5 months for delivery, and those who choose the range-topping Z8 and Z8 L variants will wait for just a month.
The Mahindra Scorpio N is currently priced between Rs 13.85-24.54 lakh and is available with two engine options – a 203hp, 2.0-litre turbo-petrol and a 175hp, 2.2-litre diesel engine. Both have 6-speed manual and automatic transmission options, but it’s only the diesel that has a 4WD option. As with the XUV700, wait times for the 6-seat and ESP variants differ from dealership to dealership. Check with your local showroom for exact details of these versions.

S | 1.5 |
S11 | 1.5 |
Compared to a few months ago, when buyers of the Scorpio Classic would have had to wait 4-5 months for the top-spec S11 variant, and up to 2 months for the entry-level S trim, those looking to buy the SUV now, will have to wait just a month and a half for delivery. The Mahindra Scorpio Classic is powered by a sole 132hp, 2.2-litre diesel engine that comes with a 6-speed manual gearbox, as standard. At the moment, Scorpio Classic prices range from Rs 13.62 lakh to 17.42 lakh.
