Mahindra has quietly launched a new automatic variant of its popular SUV, Scorpio N. This new variant makes it more affordable by ₹1 lakh, making it easier for customers to buy a powerful automatic SUV without spending too much.

This new automatic transmission (AT) option is now available with the Z4 variant of Scorpio N.
