M&M working on new-generation Scorpio for foreign markets -

Mahindra & Mahindra’s North American Technical Centre is working on a new-generation Scorpio that is expected to hit the roads in 2020. This time around, the goal is to take it global.
Mahindra has long been talking about entering the US market with a Scorpio-based small pickup truck.
It aims to drive into the developed markets of North America and Europe as well as to hold on its competitive domestic SUV market.
The concept design, codenamed ‘Z101’, is the responsibility of the North American Technical Centre, said people in the know.
In India, the Scorpio, despite witnessing competition from Renault Duster and Hyundai Creta, has been consistently maintaining monthly volumes and contributing handsomely to the profitability of the company.
Mahindra vehicles of the future will spot the tough and rugged lineage, but “morph and evolve into an object of desire”.– Rajan Wadhera, President Automotive Division, Mahindra.
Mahindra is likely to integrate its various design houses of Michigan, Pininfarina and MGRD in Italy, Ssangyong in South Korea and its in-house design studio IDAM.
