5-Door Mahindra Thar Roxx to Be Offered With Two Sunroof Options

The highly anticipated Mahindra Thar Roxx is all set to be unveiled tomorrow, just ahead of its official launch on Independence Day. After a series of teasers and spy shots, it's evident that this upcoming SUV will be packed with comfort and convenience features. Among these, the sunroof stands out as a first-time addition to the Thar nameplate, marking a significant upgrade in its offerings.

Unlike most carmakers that stick to a single sunroof type across their models, Mahindra is taking a unique approach with the Thar Roxx, making it a more versatile option for buyers. The SUV will come with two sunroof options, catering to different customer preferences. Teasers have confirmed the availability of a panoramic sunroof, while spy shots of a mid-spec variant suggest a more budget-friendly single-pane sunroof. This dual-option approach ensures that even those on a tighter budget can enjoy the open-air experience in their Thar Roxx.

Other Possible Features of the Thar Roxx

The Thar Roxx is expected to come loaded with features, including a dual-screen setup, likely to be 10.25-inch units, ventilated seats, automatic climate control, and wireless phone charging. The SUV is also expected to feature a push-button start/stop, adding to its convenience.

On the safety front, the Thar Roxx is anticipated to include six airbags (likely as standard), electronic stability control (ESC), a 360-degree camera, and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).

Powertrain Options

While the exact engine and transmission details are yet to be confirmed, the Thar Roxx is expected to share the Thar 3-door’s petrol and diesel options, possibly with updated performance figures. The options include a 2-liter turbo-petrol and a 2.2-liter diesel engine, paired with either a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic transmission. Both rear-wheel-drive (RWD) and four-wheel-drive (4WD) versions are also expected to be available.

Expected Price and Rivals

The 5-Door Mahindra Thar Roxx is expected to be priced starting from Rs 12.99 lakh (ex-showroom). It will compete directly with the Force Gurkha 5-door while serving as a larger alternative to the Maruti Jimny.

The Thar Roxx is shaping up to be a versatile and feature-rich option in the off-road SUV segment, offering a range of options to cater to different customer preferences. With its official launch imminent, all eyes are on Mahindra to see how this new offering will perform in the market.
