Is Scorpio a new product or an example of line extension?

Page 6: Scorpio 2 (2)

Product line – A group of products within a product class that are closely related because they :

• Perform a similar function• Are sold to the same customer groups• Are marketed through the same outlets

or channels• Fall within given price ranges

Page 7: Scorpio 2 (2)

Product development- two types New products range from new-to-the-world

products that create an entirely new market at one end, to

minor improvements or revisions of existing product at the other.

Page 8: Scorpio 2 (2)

Yes ,SCORPIO is a new product development.

As before the launch of Scorpio, Mahindra & Mahindra image was a big barrier.

It only covers semi-urban and rural markets in India.

In 1990’s the company was experiencing loss of share.

Page 9: Scorpio 2 (2)

Objectives of this new product development To create a new segment and retain

market domination To differentiate offering i.e. to provide an

excellent value proposition to the customer

To become a significant global player in the chosen product category

To optimize project cost

Page 10: Scorpio 2 (2)

Deriving forces which leads to the new product development

India enjoys a distinct cost advantage with respect to auto-ancillary manufacturing capabilities.(Indian labor cost is only around 8-9% of sales)

MUV as a % of the overall passenger car market was just 16% in 2001.

Consumers want to consume premium imagery at prices affordable to them.

Page 11: Scorpio 2 (2)

Untapped niche: Mahindra was lacking in products that catered to the modern urban consumer needs.

The market was moving from traditional multi utility ,non-luxurious vehicles to luxurious vehicles.

Page 12: Scorpio 2 (2)

To achieve these purposes, the company started the product development process termed IDAM- Integrated Design And Manufacturing.

Page 13: Scorpio 2 (2)

The company ‘Mahindra &Mahindra’ launched the new vehicle successfully in 2002 under the brand name..

SCORPIO

Page 14: Scorpio 2 (2)

MANAGEMENT DECISION TO LAUNCH SCORPIO

Urban market was showing more potential for vehicle sales and UVs were gaining higher acceptability in urban areas International UVs were entering the market and competition was getting tougher The market was moving from traditional multi utility , non luxurious vehicles to luxurious vehicle …….

Page 15: Scorpio 2 (2)

From consumer perspective customer preferred big size as its

stands for status .

Consumer seeks latest technology

Customer wants the sheer thrill and passion of driving an SUV but at affordable price

Page 16: Scorpio 2 (2)

From context of Mahindra Mahindra (in late 1990s) a leader in UV

segment was losing their market share . Global player were entering in the

market and aggressively launching products

Mahindra share of business was largely from semi urban and rural market of India

Page 17: Scorpio 2 (2)

Mahindra sales come from institutional sales army , police , military groups

They had wide product port folio but was lacking in product that catered to modern urban consumer needs

The market where Mahindra was strong were stagnating …..

Page 18: Scorpio 2 (2)

Mahindra image………..

Mahindra image was a big barrier there brand were not seen as modern and technological advance .

there image was uncomfortable , rough , not easy to drive ,

Page 19: Scorpio 2 (2)

So management decided to launch scorpio with a following objectives

to create a new segment and retain market domination .

To differentiate offering that is to provide an excellent value proposition to customer .

To optimize project cost .

Page 20: Scorpio 2 (2)

There was no SUV in the country that the masses could buy .

So based on consumer research Mahindra found to make SUV’s a mass concept in India seen as comfortable , easy to drive , and imaginary comparable to international brand.

Page 21: Scorpio 2 (2)

So to make Mahindra and Mahindra known world wide for the quality , durability , and reliability , of its product and services and to dominate in the niche UV market they decided to launch scorpio .

ANOTHER AUTOMOBILE COMPANY THAT COULD LEARN FROM “PROJECT SCORPIO

Page 41: Scorpio 2 (2)

CHALLENGES FACED BY “PROJECT SCORPIO”

Positive but unfavorable brand

Image . Negative parameters

* Uncomfortable and rough.

* Not easy to drive and

* Rural imagery.

Page 42: Scorpio 2 (2)

STRATEGIES ADOPTED

Proper market research ADOPTED UNIQUE PROCESS i.e.

IDAM Strong positioning Competitive price advantage .

Page 43: Scorpio 2 (2)

AUTOMOBILE COMPANY THAT COULD LEARN FROM “PROJECT SCORPIO” IS

MARUTI SUZUKI

Page 44: Scorpio 2 (2)

WHY MARUTI SUZUKI ??

Both Mahindra & Mahindra and Maruti Suzuki have positive brand image but unfavorable to cater luxury segment.

Like “Project Scorpio” Maruti Suzuki can stretch upward by introducing new product line i.e. SUV’s.

Innovation in terms of technology . Educating customer about novel concept

of their SUV’s by choosing right media mix and promotion activities.
