Same waiting pain with me as well, SA earlier said that the CPD was mid-Feb and at the end of Jan he said CPD moved to Apr 17th. On the portal, delivery is shown between March 19 - Apr 18. I hope Mahindra will live up to the word and deliver the vehicle in the promised period.

Have you heard from dealer after this?

Re: What happened with your Mahindra Scorpio-N Booking?

I had booked Z4 Diesel AT last month and got a call yesterday from local M&M dealer saying, there a ScorpioN in transit and will be available to me in next 10 days. Because someone has cancelled his/her booking I got the allotment. I am surprise to get the vehicle so early which otherwise was 2 years away

peace

Re: What happened with your Mahindra Scorpio-N Booking?

Surprise Surprise!!!

It’s second time in a row Mahindra has pushed delivery date.

The original date was Jan, then it was changed to March and now May. ��

Mine is Z4 MT, booked On day 1 and minute 1 and people who did not know about Scorpio N, are owning one now.

Re: What happened with your Mahindra Scorpio-N Booking?

Need a help/ opinion.

My Diesel Z4 AT with introductory price arrived in first week of December, 2022. However, I didn't take the vehicle and after reviewing my use-case and waiting time of 10 days the dealership allotted the vehicle to the next person on queue on basis of my consent email communication.

But I didn't cancel the booking on portal. Neither the dealership cancelled the booking from their side.

Today I opened the portal and I am able to see my booking with "introductory price" is still alive and the new date is between March-April, 2024.

My query is, if I continue with this booking and ultimately receive the Z4 AT in March-April, 2024; whether the price will remain introductory or it will be the current ex-showroom price? I understand rest of the charges and fees will be based on the current ex-showroom price. How about the vehicle price?

Re: What happened with your Mahindra Scorpio-N Booking?

If the previous car offered to you was the one designated for your own booking, you will not get price protection. But often, the dealership offers the car to next person in line with the same variant/colour choice if a buyer does not take delivery. So it.is possible the first car offered to you was not yours, but someone else's higher up in the waiting list. In this case, your refusal does not remove your Price protection, as you did not refuse your designated/allotted car.

Best way is to send an email to Mahindra customer care and double check.

Re: What happened with your Mahindra Scorpio-N Booking?

Anyone heard from the dealer about Z8 variant's deliveries? I just contacted my dealer and they are giving a date even further than Mahindra's portal.

Re: What happened with your Mahindra Scorpio-N Booking?

some background: I booked my Z8 AT (Forest green) on day 1 within 15 mins of booking opening, didn't get introductory price and the delivery date of May 23
I got a call from Silver Jubilee Motors Pune (dealer) yesterday, every time i get a call, it raises my hopes, but it was just a usual call to check whether i am keeping my booking (and not cancelling), they have done this check 4-5 times already. Not sure what Mahindra is thinking...keeping Z8 people waiting for so long

Yeah here's my story.
1. Booking made for an xuv 700 day 1 evening offline with written and stamped signed price protection with the exact figure for an ax5 D MT... 15.6L.
2. Come delivery day a few months back, they said there's no price protection? The VIN was diverted to another buyer without written confirmation from me. That's life, eh?
3. I'm taking them to court. They've lost a bunch previously. This wouldn't be new.
4. Yesterday I logged in to find that my AX5 D MT has been converted to a BS6.2 *white* xuv. My original color was midnight blue. Delivery is far into the future.

Obviously, the dealers in the Mahindra scheme of things get a trump card over reality. Good that I met R. Velusami (no typos I hope, I am horrible at names) at MSPT and I have a direct line to him now, but Koncept Mahindra needs fixing regardless.

Wish you luck.

P. S. My scorpios are booked with Harbir in chandigarh. The dates are vague. I should have got my Z6 D AT a month back. There's been no news. SMS or otherwise.

Re: What happened with your Mahindra Scorpio-N Booking?

Booked a Mahindra ScorpioN Z8 Petrol Manual on 18th August 2022. The original delivery date was Oct-Nov 2024. It later changed to Aug-Sept-2024.

With the latest update, it has been changed to Jan-Feb 2024. Looks like a large number of cancellations might speed up the deliveries.

Based on updates from the Owners group on Facebook, seems like the production is continuously going on for BS6 Phase 2 vehicles at the Chakan plant. However, the manufacturing capacity of Mahindra for passenger vehicles is extremely low as compared to the large number of bookings they have taken.

Waiting for the first batch of Z8 model to be delivered to the other buyers. Hopefully a lot of snags reported by existing owners will get fixed by that time.

Unfortunately, there is still no direct competition to the vehicle with this ride quality, street presence, power even after the price hikes.

I'm done. I am canceling my booking. I contacted A Tata dealership and their executive was really good. He promised that they can deliver the new Safari with the BS6 2.0 within 2 weeks. Unlike Mahindra they don't seem to have an issue with the manufacturing as claimed by the Mahindra representative. Going to go with a Safari XT+. Budget got extended but still I have peace of mind now. This was a great thread. Thank you guys for sharing the updates, it was really helpful.
