Value and style for Mahindra's Pik Up

Mahindra has completed the upgrade of its locally assembled pik up range 1800x1800

The most visible change to these models is the larger seven-slat grille, large, chromed Mahindra logo, clear headlamps (now standard across the range) and round fog lights in a redesigned lower bumper.

After first launching the new front-end on the S11, Mahindra also introduced it on the upgraded Scorpio, which shares the same underpinnings. This bumper design, with its integrated round fog lights, was also recently added to the range-topping S6 single cab.

With this upgrade, all models, except the Pik Up Karoo, feature Mahindra’s redesigned bolt-on cab protector. The cab protector has been redesigned to be sturdier and allows for additional tie-down spots. The Karoo models retain their custom-designed styling and nudge bars with Karoo detailing.

Mahindra Pik Up October 2020 — Mahindra's Pik Up now has a new look grille, with minor cosmetic and luxury tweaks across its double cab range.

“The Pik Up range is making new fans every month, and our South African assembly facility can barely keep up with the demand,” says Rajesh Gupta, CEO of Mahindra South Africa.

Inside the cabin, all single- and double-cab models from the S6 specification level upwards now feature cruise control and electrically adjustable outside rear-view mirrors as standard.

The S10 Double Cab received the same 7” infotainment system with capacitive touch screen and integrated reverse camera that is available on the S11 model. This system has been upgraded to the most recent set of navigation maps and language pack for South Africa.

The drivetrain options stay. the same with the 103 kW mHawk turbodiesel engine.

Competitors include more entry-level models from the established brands like Toyota, Mazda, Isuzu and Ford and especially Nissan’s NP300 and newcomers from Chinese brands like JAC, JMC and GWM.
