2022 Mahindra Scorpio-N modified with Mercedes-Maybach style alloys looks DESIRABLE: Watch

The Mahindra Scorpio name enjoys a strong cult among enthusiasts. The SUV has been on sale in the country for longer than most Gen-Z folks. It has recently been introduced in its third-generation avatar as Scorpio-N and has a waiting period of around 2 years. The 2022 Mahindra Scorpio-N was launched in the country on June 27, while the deliveries of the SUV have just started. Easy to guess, folks from Punjab have already started flocking to the mod shops to get their Scorpio-Ns shod with colossal-sized rims. We recently came across an example via the Instagram account of Velocity Tyres.

In the image, an example of the 2022 Mahindra Scorpio-N in the Napoli Black paint shade can be seen fitted with a set of 20-inch aftermarket rims, draped in low-profile tyres. When looked closely, the hubcaps wear the tri-arrow logo, giving a fair idea that these rims are inspired by those seen on Mercedes-Benz models. In the comment section, some users have commented that with these rims, the Scorpio-N looks quite like the Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600 4Matic.
