Mahindra Receives Highest Ever Bookings in 2022 – Mega Launches

2022 has been a profitable year for Mahindra & Mahindra. The carmaker received the highest ever bookings, thanks to mega launches including the new Scorpio-N, Scorpio Classic and XUV300 Turbosport. SUVs like updated Mahindra Thar and XUV700 are also generating volume for the carmaker in the country. However, the Mahindra SUVs are currently observing highest ever waiting period due to semiconductor shortage.

In order to reduce waiting period of SUVs, the company is running its manufacturing at full capacity. In Q4 2022, Mahindra’s monthly SUV production capacity stands at 29,000. The carmaker aims to increase it to 39,000 and 49,000/per month by the end of 2023 and 2024 respectively. That means, the production capacity will be ramped up by 10,000 in every 12 months. Furthermore, the company is working on to create an alternative chip supplier.
