- Mahindra Thar and Scorpio Classic SUVs have received a new exterior colour Stealth Black, which is possibly the renamed Napoli Black hue of the OEM.
Mahindra & Mahindra has silently updated the Thar and Scorpio Classic’s colour palette by introducing a new exterior shade. Both the SUVs now come available in a new colour, christened Stealth Black, which replaces the homegrown automaker’s signature hue Napoli Black. Interestingly, the Stealth Black has hardly any visual difference compared to the Napoli Black. This means the automaker may have just renamed the colour.
With the addition of this new colour, Mahindra Thar is now available in five different exterior shades, while the Scorpio Classic gets four colour options. The Mahindra Thar three-door SUV’s five different colour options are Red Rage, Deep Grey, Stealth Black, Everest White and Desert Fury. On the other hand, the Mahindra Scorpio Classic comes available in colour options like Galaxy Grey, Everest White, Stealth Black and Molten Red Rage. Other SUVs from the automaker, including the Scorpio N, XUV700, XUV300 and Bolero Neo come featuring the Napoli Black exterior paint.
