Pros Cons of Mahindra Thar

Pros

  • Three-door attention-grabbing iconic design
  • 4x4 is a seriously potent off-roader
  • Robust built

Cons

  • Inconvenient for four passengers
  • Not fuel-efficient

Verdict

The Mahindra Thar, with its rugged, hefty look, is mechanically sound with driving manners good enough for city and highway. Whether the three-door Thar suits a family is debatable, but it's always been a niche vehicle for a specific set of buyers.

Pros Cons of Tata Safari

Pros

  • Solid Road Presence
  • Spacious And Comfortable Cabin
  • Well-Specced With A Host Of Features

Cons

  • Heavy Weight Is Quite Noticeable In Traffic
  • Automatic Gearbox Could Be More Responsive
  • Infotainment System Feels Not The Most Reliable

Verdict

Like many Tata models the Safari also gets drive modes so you have City, Eco and Sport and yes there is perceptible difference between City and Sport for sure. But there is also a terrain response system a la Land Rover. Rough Road mode, Wet mode and then back to the default City drive mode.
