The Updated Mahindra Thar 3-Door Launched In India at Rs 9.99 lakh with a premium cabin, new 26.03 cm touchscreen infotainment, Adventure Stats Gen II, and powerful petrol & diesel engine options.
Mahindra and Mahindra has unveiled the new Mahindra Thar 3-door, in India at a good starting price of Rs 9.99 lakh (ex-showroom). The lifestyle SUV currently enjoys slight exterior modifications, revamped interior, and a couple of new features, and it is an even more powerful opponent on the market of off-road SUVs.
Key Exterior Updates
The 2025 Thar remains in its rugged position, but has a new two-tone grille and two-tone bumper to appear more edgy. The SUV also has its classic round headlamps, LED DRLs and 18 inch alloy wheels. The customers are now able to select among six shades of paint with two new options of these colors, Tango Red and Battleship Grey.
Premium Cabin & Added Comfort
The Thar has been given a black all-interior with a redesigned dashboard and a new steering wheel. Mahindra also considered passenger comfort by providing passengers with rear air conditioning vents, sliding arm-rest to the driver, and specific dead-pedal in automatics. Practical workings like use of power windows on door pads, rear camera, rear wash/wiper and internal fuel-lid opener make it even more convenient.
New Technology & Features
The addition of a 26.03 cm HD touchscreen infotainment system including Android Auto and Apple CarPlay is the biggest highlight. The SUV also includes Type-C charging jacks in both rows, Tyre Direction Monitoring System and the new Adventure Stats Gen II which displays real-time off-road data such as height, tyre pressure, trip information, and steering angle. A-pillar assist handle has been provided also to facilitate ingress and egress.
