Mahindra has hinted at an upcoming update for the Mahindra Scorpio-N SUV.
SUV manufacturer Mahindra & Mahindra has released a teaser video on its official social media accounts, hinting at an upcoming update for the Mahindra Scorpio-N. The teaser shows a road with illuminated lane markings, which is being interpreted as a sign that the company may introduce Level-2 Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) in the vehicle.
The Mahindra Scorpio-N is one of the company’s most popular models. With this update, it could be brought more in line with its sibling, the Mahindra XUV700, which already comes equipped with Level-2 ADAS features. The Scorpio-N’s ADAS suite may include:
-
Adaptive cruise control
-
Lane keep assist
-
Lane departure warning
-
Traffic sign recognition
-
Automatic emergency braking
-
Forward collision warning
-
High beam assist
