Upcoming Scorpio N Facelift Spied

The upcoming Mahindra Scorpio N facelift has been spotted testing by Cardekho hinting at a launch sometime in 2026. The updated SUV is expected to bring subtle design changes and meaningful interior upgrades while retaining its proven engines and rugged character. Once launched, it will continue to compete with rivals like the Tata Safari, Hyundai Alcazar and MG Hector Plus.

Exterior Updates Kept Subtle

On the outside, the Scorpio N facelift sticks closely to the current design. Spy images reveal a slightly revised front bumper and grille with horizontal slats, giving the SUV a fresher look without altering its bold identity. The LED headlamps and C-shaped fog lamp surrounds appear unchanged. From the side, the most noticeable update is the new 18-inch alloy wheel design, while the overall profile remains familiar. The rear is expected to get mild updates such as refreshed LED tail-lamp signatures and a tweaked bumper.

Interior Gets Major Tech Upgrades

The cabin is where the biggest changes are expected. The facelifted Scorpio N is likely to feature a larger 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system, replacing the current 8-inch unit. To accommodate this, the centre console layout has been revised, with AC vents repositioned horizontally. A new fully digital driver’s display is also expected, replacing the existing analogue dials. The overall dashboard design and brown-black colour scheme are likely to remain the same.

Engines and Hardware to Stay the Same

Mechanically, the Scorpio N facelift will continue with the existing 2.0-litre turbo-petrol and 2.2-litre diesel engines. Both manual and automatic gearboxes will be offered, along with the 4x4 option on select diesel variants.
