The ‘Z8 Select’ variant is available with both petrol and diesel variants of the Scorpio N

The Mahindra Scorpio N Z8 Select variant was introduced in February 2024, slotted between the mid-spec Z6 and top-spec Z8 trims. This new variant of the Scorpio N offers some additional features of the Z8 over the Z6 trim; however, it’s still more affordable than the Z8, with only a few feature omissions. We have detailed the Scorpio N Z8 Select in 10 images.

The Z8 Select variant of the Mahindra Scorpio N borrows a lot of features from the Z8 trim, including dual-barrel LED headlights with LED DRLs and LED projector fog lamps. However, the Z8 Select variant of the Scorpio N doesn’t get an automatic headlight feature like the Z8. Also, the Scorpio N here can be seen wearing a new midnight black exterior shade, which is specific only to the Z8 Select variant.

From the side, the Z8 Select variant of the SUV features the same 17-inch alloy wheels as seen on the regular Z8 trims. The only visible difference compared to the regular Z8 variant is the body-colored door handles. Please note that the chrome design elements visible on the wheel arches and around the door handles are part of the accessories.

Inside, the Scorpio N Z8 Select variant shares the same black and brown dual-tone cabin theme with leatherette seat upholstery, offered with the regular Z8 trim. In fact, amenities like 8-inch touchscreen with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, 7-inch digital driver’s display, connected car tech, and sunroof are also shared between the two variants.

However, the Z8 Select variant of the SUV misses out on features like dual-zone AC, push-button start/stop, auto headlights, and rain sensing wipers. Though it gets electrically adjustable ORVMs, it still misses out on auto-fold function.

Just like the Z8 variant, the Scorpio N Z8 Select is also available in 7-seater configuration. For convenience of rear passengers, it also gets rear AC vents and a USB C-type charger in the second row.
