Mahindra & Mahindra is experiencing a strong response from Indian buyers for its SUV lineup, including the Thar, Scorpio-N, and Scorpio Classic. The brand recently introduced its latest D-segment SUV, the Scorpio-N, at an introductory price of Rs 11.99 lakh, ex-showroom. However, the SUV has seen several price increases since its launch.

The company has now raised the prices of the Scorpio-N by up to Rs 81,000. As a result, the Scorpio-N now starts at Rs 13.76 lakh and goes up to Rs 24.53 lakh, ex-showroom. Among the specific variants, the entry-level Z2 variant in the petrol version sees a price increase of Rs 52,199, while the top-tier Z8L variant has a hike of Rs 1,995.

Shifting the focus to the Thar, this popular SUV now faces a price hike of up to Rs 44,000. Consequently, the revised starting price for the Thar is Rs 10.98 lakh, ex-showroom, with the highest trim reaching Rs 16.93 lakh, ex-showroom. Among the different trims, the 2WD AX(O) MT variant encounters the most significant hike, at Rs 44,000. Other variants see a price increase of Rs 16,000, except for the 2WD LX AT (petrol), which now costs Rs 28,000 more.

Finally, the Mahindra Scorpio Classic has a starting price of Rs 13.25 lakh (ex-showroom) following an effective price increase of Rs 26,000. The S11 variant of the Scorpio Classic witnesses a hike of Rs 24,000, bringing its price to Rs 17.05 lakh, ex-showroom. Worth noting is that unlike the Thar and Scorpio-N, which offer both petrol and diesel powertrains, the Scorpio Classic is solely available with a diesel engine.

This series of price adjustments reflects the dynamic nature of the Indian SUV market and highlights Mahindra & Mahindra's efforts to maintain competitiveness and meet the evolving demands of consumers. Buyers can explore the range of models, features, colors, and pricing to find the Mahindra SUV that best suits their needs and preferences.
