Last year, the Mahindra Scorpio N-based Global Pik Up made its global debut in concept avatar in South Africa. Later, the carmaker filed a design patent for the Scorpio N-based pickup. And now, the Indian SUVmaker has registered the “Scorpio X” trademark, which is expected to be used for the production-ready Mahindra Global Pik Up truck. In addition to the Scorpio X, Mahindra has also trademarked several other names, including Scorpio K, Scorpio L, Scorpio M, and Scorpio Z.
Rapid Insight Into The Mahindra Global Pik Up (Scorpio X)
Designed at Mahindra India Design Studio (MIDS), the new Mahindra Global Pik-Up concept exudes ruggedness and muscularity. It shares design similarities with the Scorpio N SUV, especially in its front design, showcasing LED headlamps, hood, fenders, and front doors reminiscent of its SUV counterpart. The distinctive features include a massive bash plate, tow hooks in striking red, and a bold blacked-out grille positioned above the bash plate.
