The launch was in partnership with Maquinaria Nacional, an arm of the Gildemeister Group, an importer and distributor of vehicles which also represents Mahindra in Chile, Reuters reported.
“The launch in Peru will help us consolidate our growing presence in South America,” Sanjeev Saksena, senior general manager for Central and South America, said in a statement cited by the news agency.
Mahindra, a utility vehicle and tractor specialist, in January began assembling the Scorpio and pickup in Brazil with a local partner. It also assembles the vehicles in Egypt and exports them to markets in Europe, Africa and the Middle East, Reuters noted.
Mahindra, which aims to double its domestic sales and quadruple exports by 2010, is scheduled to launch the Scorpio in the United States in 2009, the report added.
