While Mahindra is yet to reveal the engine and full specifications, the company has confirmed that the Scorpio Lifestyler will be priced below Rs 19.79 lakh (ex-showroom) when it goes on sale in India by April 2027. Here are the top five things you need to know about Mahindra's new pickup truck.

One of the biggest highlights of the new Mahindra Lifestyler is its expected pricing.

Mahindra has unveiled the Scorpio Lifestyler in three distinct editions - Reef, Trail and Valley. Each edition has its own styling theme and character, giving buyers more choice depending on their preferred look and usage.

Mahindra is expected to announce the exact price closer to its market launch, which is scheduled by April 2027.

The Scorpio Lifestyler is based on the same body-on-frame chassis as the Mahindra Scorpio N. This should give the pickup a strong foundation for tackling rough roads and off-road terrain.

The pickup gets a double-cab layout and a rugged design, with chunky body cladding, roof rails, dual-tone alloy wheels and off-road tyres. The overall styling stays close to the production version of the Global Pik Up concept.

The Scorpio Lifestyler carries a bold design with several familiar Mahindra elements. At the front, it gets high-set LED headlamps with L-shaped DRLs, a wide honeycomb grille and chrome detailing.

The bonnet features a prominent 'Scorpio' wordmark, while the lower section gets a muscular skid plate with 'Mahindra' lettering. Vertical LED fog lamps and a meshed air dam further add to its rugged appearance.

At the rear, the pickup gets vertically stacked LED tail-lamps with C-shaped lighting signatures. A large 'Mahindra' wordmark is integrated into the tailgate, while the chunky bumper completes the tough look.

Despite its rugged exterior, the Scorpio Lifestyler gets a relatively premium-looking cabin. The dashboard features a portrait-oriented infotainment touchscreen, with AC vents positioned on either side.

The cabin also gets a digital driver's display, a three-spoke steering wheel and several physical controls on the centre console. Expected features include wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, dual-zone climate control, connected car technology and selectable terrain modes.

Mahindra is yet to confirm the complete equipment list, so more details are expected closer to the launch.

Mahindra has not yet disclosed the engine, gearbox or performance figures of the Scorpio Lifestyler. The company is also yet to confirm whether the pickup will be offered with multiple powertrain options.

More technical details are expected to be revealed before its India launch in April 2027. The pickup will also be sold in several international markets, where it will drop the Scorpio name and simply be called the Mahindra Lifestyler.
