The 2025 Mahindra Scorpio‑N Black Edition has arrived, redefining toughness with a bold, monochrome makeover that exudes dominance and sophistication. Designed to appeal to buyers seeking an SUV with rugged charm and refined flair, this limited-edition model enhances the Scorpio‑N’s commanding personality without compromising performance or comfort.
Bold Exterior Transformation
The most striking update is the all-black aesthetic—from its metallic black paint to its darkened elements, the SUV radiates a menacing presence on the road. Signature features include:
-
Black alloy wheels, replacing the standard dual-tone options
-
Black-finished roof rails with a bronze galvano sheen
-
Smoked chrome accents around the grille and exterior trims
The skid plates on both the front and rear are finished in dark grey, complementing the rugged exterior enhancements. The lighting design remains the same, retaining the Scorpio‑N’s aggressive LED projector headlamps and DRLs, but now set against a stealthier backdrop .
Interior: Rugged Luxury Inside
Step into the Scorpio‑N Black Edition, and you’re greeted by an all-black cabin – dark leatherette upholstery, contrast stitching, and smoke-chrome accents across the dashboard, centre console, doors, and steering wheel . The look is both luxurious and purposeful, enhancing the rugged utility that buyers expect from the Scorpio‑N.
Despite its visual overhaul, the interior retains its original premium features:
-
Wireless Apple CarPlay & Android Auto via an 8-inch infotainment display
-
7-inch digital instrument cluster
-
Wireless phone charging with cooling
-
Dual-zone automatic climate control, ventilated front seats, and auto-dimming IRVM
-
12-speaker Sony sound system, steering-mounted controls, rear wiper, washer, and demister
Safety and Convenience
No concessions were made on safety. The Scorpio‑N Black Edition continues to offer:
-
Six airbags, ABS with EBD, ESC
-
Hill-hold and descent control
-
Front and rear parking sensors, tyre pressure monitoring, and ISOFIX child-seat anchors
As a top-of-the-range pack, it also enjoys Global NCAP 5-star safety ratings, a testament to Mahindra’s commitment to occupant protection.
Powertrains & Driving Dynamics
Mechanically identical to the standard Scorpio‑N, the Carbon Edition is available with:
-
