Mahindra has received a large number of bookings for SUVs like the XUV700, Thar and the just-launched Scorpio N. But the shortage of semi-conductors has significantly increased the delivery timings of these SUVs. However, the deliveries of Mahindra Scorpio N will start from next month.
Mahindra is a big player in the Indian SUV car market. Whenever Mahindra launches a new SUV, people make bookings in huge numbers. This number is so high that it becomes very difficult for the company to deliver on time. Similarly, the shortage of semiconductor chips has affected the supply of the entire automobile industry. Therefore, the waiting period for the delivery of a new car has also increased. According to reports, Mahindra will start deliveries of the Scorpio N from September 26. In the first ten days, only 7 thousand people who made the first booking will be able to get delivery.
7 thousand delivery in 10 days
Mahindra will deliver only 7 thousand units of the new Scorpio in the first ten days of delivery. However, within a minute of opening the bookings of the Scorpio N, more than 25,000 units were booked. Scorpio N broke all records by securing more than 1 lakh bookings within 30 minutes. Mahindra currently has a total of 2.40 lakh booking orders for the Scorpio N.

The company will start the delivery of Scorpio N from 26 September. Navratri will start from 26 September. This means that till Dussehra, there will be 7,000 Scorpio N running on Indian roads. The average waiting period for delivery of the initial 25,000 bookings of Scorpio N is of 4 months. According to auto website Rushlane, the Z8L variant will be given first priority in the delivery of Scorpio N.
