Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Mahindra Thar
- Attention grabbing design. Looks macho and has stronger road presence than ever before.
- Available with petrol and diesel engines with a choice of 6-speed manual or automatic transmissions for both.
- Design better suited for off-roading than before. Big improvements in departure angle, breakover angle and ground clearance.
- More tech: Brake based differential locking system, auto locking rear mechanical differential, shift-on-the-fly 4x4 with low range, 7-inch touchscreen with off-road gauges, Android Auto, Apple CarPlay and navigation
- Good quality interior with better practicality than before. The Thar is now more family friendly.
- Improved noise vibration and harshness management. Doesn’t feel crude or outdated to drive anymore.
- More configurations: Fixed soft top, fixed hardtop or convertible soft top, available as a 6- or 4- seater
Mahindra Thar ROXX
- Old-school boxy SUV styling grabs attention and has more road presence than similarly priced SUVs
- Both engines options deliver punchy performance and good driveability even with a full passenger load
- Rich features list: Panoramic sunroof, Harman Kardon audio, ADAS and more
- 5/5 start safety rating from Bharat NCAP. Base model is strong on safety too
- Very capable off-road. 4x4 option gives you absolute freedom to explore but even the rear-wheel drive is very capable

Mahindra Thar
- Stiff ride quality. Deals with bad roads well but sharp bumps can unsettle the cabin quite easily
- Old school ladder frame SUV and behaves like one. Loads of body roll even on mild curves
- Some cabin flaws: Rear windows aren’t openable, pedal box leaves no proper space to rest your left foot even in the automatic and thick B pillars create large blind spots to the side
- It’s a heavily improved/polished version of a hardcore off-roader but not an alternative to more practical, comfortable, feature rich compact/sub compact SUVs
Mahindra Thar ROXX
- Ride quality is not as comfortable as cars like the Hyundai Creta, Maruti Grand Vitara or Skoda Kushaq. Bad roads can toss occupants around, especially in the rear seat
- Petrol engine is high on performance but also high on fuel consumption
- No 4x4 petrol option
