LX Manual Hard Top 4 seater(Petrol)
The Thar is perfect for outdoor enthusiasts, thanks to its robust suspension and solid engine performance. While the ground clearance is ideal for tough terrains, daily city driving can be less comfortable. The manual transmission is smooth, but fuel efficiency is moderate.

Could be improve but its great off roader car

Earth Edition Petrol Manual(Petrol)
Using seance 6 month thar’s engine delivers power, making it a great off-roader. The safety features are decent, though rear passenger space is limited. The manual transmission works well, and the rugged design is stylish, but fuel efficiency and comfort on city roads i feel could be improved.

LX Automatic 4 Seater Convertible Top Diesel(Diesel)
Mahindra Thar’s rugged style and high ground clearance make it a great choice for off-road adventures. However, its suspension feels a bit stiff on city roads. The engine delivers strong performance, but fuel efficiency isn’t its strongest suit. Ample boot space for luggage is a plus

Thar has an unbeatable road presence. It’s a joy to drive and handles rough terrains with ease. Thar's fuel efficiency is quite poor Not a practical choice for daily commuting.

Not for daily use in heavy traffic

Overall, Thar is a good buy. It’s tough and stylish, but the rear seating could be more comfortable. also Thar is good for occasional off-roading. Not the best for daily use in heavy traffic.

Having a very bad experience

Earth Edition Diesel Manual(Diesel)
I’ve been facing multiple issues. First, there’s a strange sound that comes when I apply the brakes, which is very concerning for a new vehicle. Second, despite closing the door completely, air leaks inside the cabin, making the ride uncomfortable, especially on highways. I am extremely disappointed with these issues and expected much better quality from Mahindra.

Perfect for rugged roads however, the back seat space is a bit cramped.

Earth Edition Petrol Manual(Petrol)
I've been driving the Mahindra Thar for two years now, and it's the perfect vehicle for rugged roads and off-road adventures. Its design and off-road capabilities are outstanding, making it a fantastic choice for weekend trips and rough terrains. However, it's a bit of a mixed bag when it comes to daily city commutes. The back seat space is quite cramped, and the ride quality on highways could definitely be smoother. While I love it for its adventurous spirit, it’s not the most comfortable option for everyday driving.

Thar is a good car for off-roading and long drives, but it’s not very fuel-efficient.
i enjoyed Thar's fun ride, but it could use more advanced features for the price.

LX Manual Hard Top 4 seater(Petrol)
Mahindra Thar stands out with its rugged design and strong performance, especially with the petrol engine option. The engine delivers impressive power, making off-road and city driving equally enjoyable. While its robust build suggests high maintenance, the service cost is surprisingly reasonable, adding to its overall value and appeal.

Thar is perfect for both city drives and off-road adventures. Its robust design and powerful suspension make it easy to tackle rough terrains, while it still manages to offer a comfortable ride in urban areas. The handling is responsive, and the build quality is top-notch, giving it a solid and reliable feel. With a stylish interior and modern features, the Thar is built for both adventure and everyday comfort. It’s a joy to drive and handles rough terrains with ease.

The new Mahindra Thar is a beast! Perfect for off-roading. Love the rugged look and powerful engine."
After five years, the invincible Thar has received a major update. Although it's not a facelift, the cabin is scrounged from the elder sibling, the Roxx, with two new paint choices
