Mahindra Thar – another name for adventure and power
If you are asked which is the most famous off-roading SUV in India, most people will say without thinking – Mahindra Thar. This vehicle is a lifestyle SUV, which is bought not just to drive but to live.
It is often seen in India that while buying a car, people think – how will it run in the city, how much mileage it will give and how comfortable it will be for the family. But the case of Thar is a little different. This vehicle is made for those who are crazy about adventure, who are called by mountains, forests, rivers and rough roads.
Design – SUV that looks different everywhere
The first thing that catches the attention of Mahindra Thar is its classic and muscular design. It has round headlights which remind of old Jeeps. The seven-slot grill is its trademark, which makes it instantly recognizable.
The thick cladding on the vehicle and the raised wheel arches make it more powerful. Whether you park it in a posh colony of the city or in a hilly village, Thar always attracts people’s attention.
Many SUVs are coming nowadays, but the design of most of them looks almost the same. On the other hand, the look of Thar is completely different and iconic. This car easily stands out even in the crowd.
Engine – A combination of power and reliability
Now let’s talk about the engine. Mahindra has introduced Thar with two powerful engine options – one petrol and one diesel.
The petrol engine is for those who want to enjoy smooth and fast driving. It gives the car a flying feel on the highway.
The diesel engine gives more torque, which means it easily pulls the car even on difficult roads. It is perfect for off-roading or hilly areas.
Talking about the gearbox, both manual and automatic options are available in it. Those who want to enjoy changing gears can choose manual. And for those who want comfort in city traffic, automatic gearbox will be good.
Off-roading – the real identity of Thar
If someone is asked what is the biggest feature of Thar, the answer will be – off-roading capability.
Thar has a 4×4 drive system, high ground clearance and strong suspension. This means that this vehicle can go even where normal vehicles cannot even think of going.
Suppose you have gone on a trip to Ladakh with friends. On the way, there are bumpy roads, water-filled rivers and tracks full of stones. Most SUVs get stuck at such places, but Thar moves forward without stopping. This is the reason why it is called the “king of off-roading”.
Interior – now even more modern and comfortable
People used to say about the earlier Thar that it is strong from outside, but not very comfortable from inside. Mahindra has removed this shortcoming.
The interior of the new Thar has now become quite modern and practical.
It gets a touchscreen infotainment system that supports both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. This means that your smartphone is completely connected to the car.
The seats have strong and durable upholstery, which does not get damaged even in dusty and muddy adventures.
Features like power windows, climate control and multi-function steering make it comfortable for everyday use.
This means that now Thar is not only perfect for adventure lovers, but also for families who want to travel with style and comfort.
Safety – Confidence along with adventure
Mahindra knows that adventure is fun only when safety is taken care of. This is why many important safety features have been provided in Thar:
- Dual airbags
- ABS and EBD system
- Rear parking sensor
- Seat belt reminder
These features provide safety to both the driver and the passengers. Especially on Indian roads where situations like sudden braking or difficult parking are common, these features prove to be very helpful.
Price and availability
Now let’s come to the most important question – how much does this car cost?
The Mahindra Thar starts at around ₹ 13 lakh (ex-showroom). Getting a vehicle with such power and off-roading capabilities at this price is really a great deal.
This SUV is available at Mahindra showrooms across India. Mahindra’s service network is also spread across the country, so there is no worry of servicing or repairs.
Who is Mahindra Thar for?
The Thar is not for everyone. It is for those who:
- Consider adventure and travel a part of life.
- Want a vehicle that can run everywhere – be it mountains, deserts or muddy village roads.
- Want to grab everyone’s attention with the style and unique identity of their SUV.
- And above all, those who want not just a vehicle but an adventure companion.
