Pros Cons of Mahindra Thar

Pros

  • Off-road capability with proper 4WD hardware and a low-range transfer case
  • Wide choice of engines, gearboxes and drivetrains
  • Distinctive design with strong road presence
  • Improved cabin features and usability in the latest update
  • Proven brand value and high resale demand 

Cons

  • Firm ride quality in city driving conditions
  • Limited space in the rear seats, which are hard to access
  • Boot space is limited with the rear seats in place
  • Petrol variants have high fuel consumption
  • Not suitable as a primary family vehicle

Verdict

Based on road tests, off-road evaluation and inputs by Seshan Vijayraghavan, Bilal Firfiray and comparative testing led by Shams Raza Naqvi, the Mahindra Thar is still a lifestyle SUV that has character and capability over convenience. Our experience confirms that the Thar is best used for adventure driving, rough road exploring and by buyers who value mechanical authenticity and road presence.
It is not suited to buyers looking for ride comfort, rear seat practicality, or ease in the city as a primary family vehicle. However, its best feature is providing true off-road hardware, good low-end torque and a design that is true to its purpose. If you choose the right variant of the Thar and have realistic expectations, it does what it promises and nothing more.

Pros Cons of Audi Q2

Pros

  • Powerful Petrol Engine Is Fun
  • All-Wheel Drive Makes For Better Cornering Ability
  • Premium Build And Practical Cabin

Cons

  • Expensive Starting Price
  • Dated Features And Tech
  • Rear Seat Legroom Could Be Better

Verdict

The Q2 comes with the sort of versatility that can appeal to different kind of buyers in a market like India. It's biggest USP is that is loaded with fun factor and there's no doubt that if you love to drive this car will hardly disappoint you. Then there are the attractive looks which makes it looks youngest along with smallest in the portfolio, even though it was made almost half a decade ago. The cabin too is surprisingly premium and spacious albeit not feature rich.
