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 Volkswagen Taigun

Pros

  • Build quality
  • Turbo engines
  • Handling

Cons

  • Expensive
  • Fuel efficiency
  • No Diesel option

Verdict

Taigun has come like a breath of fresh air in the crowded and competitive compact SUV space in India. Despite the arrival of some newer models in 2022, the car has manged to hold own to its own, primarily because of its build quality, safety and drivability, especially with the bigger 1.5 litre turbo engine. At higher end though, it does feel a tad expensive which is a critical factor in the segment.
