Mahindra & Mahindra Secures Landmark Order for 35,000 Scorpio Pik-Up Units in Indonesia

New Delhi, February 4, 2026: In a significant move that underscores its growing global footprint, Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) has bagged its largest-ever export order. The Indian automotive giant has entered into a contract to supply 35,000 units of its rugged Scorpio Pik-Up vehicles to the Indonesian state-owned enterprise, Agrinas Pangan Nusantara.

This landmark deal, announced on February 4, 2026, is set for delivery throughout the 2026 calendar year. The scale of this order is particularly noteworthy as it surpasses Mahindra’s total vehicle export volume for the entire 2024-25 fiscal year.

Empowering Rural Logistics: The KDKMP Project

The fleet of Scorpio Pik-Ups will play a pivotal role in Indonesia’s Koperasi Desa/Kelurahan Merah Putih (KDKMP) initiative. This government-led program is designed to revolutionize the country’s agricultural supply chain by strengthening village-level cooperatives (Koperasi).

The vehicles will be deployed for:

• First-Mile Aggregation: Transporting fresh produce directly from farms to cooperative collection centers.
• Intra-Village Logistics: Facilitating the seamless movement of goods within rural networks.
• National Food Security: Bridging the gap between rural producers and urban consumers to ensure a steady supply of fresh food.

Engineered for Tough Terrains

The Scorpio Pik-Up was selected for its proven durability and performance in challenging environments. Manufactured at Mahindra’s Nashik plant in India, these single-cab light commercial vehicles (LCVs) are specifically tailored to navigate Indonesia’s varied landscape—from unpaved farm tracks to rugged rural roads.

Key Specifications of the Scorpio Pik-Up:

• Engine: 2.2L mHawk Turbo-Diesel
• Performance: 140 hp and 320 Nm of torque
• Payload Capacity: Approximately 1,200 kg
• Off-road Capability: High ground clearance (210mm) and mechanical locking differential for superior traction.

A Strategic Milestone for Mahindra

Nalinikanth Gollagunta, CEO of Mahindra’s Automotive Division, highlighted the strategic importance of the deal, noting that the volume committed will significantly boost the company’s international operations. By securing such a massive contract, M&M is positioning itself as a dominant player in the Southeast Asian LCV market, rivaling other global automotive leaders.

This partnership not only highlights the “Make in India” success story but also reflects Mahindra’s commitment to “Rise”—enabling prosperity in the communities it serves by providing reliable logistics backbones for emerging economies.
