The new Z8 T variant is positioned below the top-spec Z8 L variant and it will also get the special Carbon Edition
Mahindra recently teased the addition of ADAS for the Mahindra Scorpio N. Now, more info about the updated Scorpio N has surfaced online via a leaked internal document. There will be a new Z8 T variant on offer, which is expected to bring a host of updates alongside sharing a Carbon Edition, while the top-spec Z8 L variant will be updated with the ADAS suite. We expect the updated Mahindra Scorpio N to launch soon.
Without further ado, here’s all that is found in the document.
Feature Updates
The Z8 T variant is confirmed to introduce an electronic parking brake with auto-hold to the Scorpio N lineup.
Being positioned above the Z8, the Z8 T will carry forward all the features offered in the Z8 variant, including analogue dials with 7-inch multi-info display, an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment, dual-zone auto AC with rear vents, push-button start, connected car tech, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and a wireless phone charger. Other features from the current Z8 L like a 6-way power adjustable driver seat, ventilated front seats, a 12-speaker Sony sound system, and an auto-dimming IRVM has been rolled down to the Z8 T variant.
Meanwhile, the top-spec Z8 L variant will get updated with a Level-2 advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) suite with features such as forward collision warning, lane keep assist, and adaptive cruise control. This variant will also get driver drowsiness detection, a feature that won’t be offered with the upcoming Z8 T.
