Mahindra has officially launched the Thar Roxx, also known as the Thar five-door, in India. Priced from Rs. 12.99 lakh for the petrol variant and Rs. 13.99 lakh for the diesel variant (ex-showroom), the Thar Roxx adds practicality to the rugged charm of the three-door Thar, offering more space with its two additional doors and a bench seat in the second row.
Powertrains:
The Thar Roxx is powered by two engine options. The first is a 2.0-litre, four-cylinder, mStallion turbo-petrol engine that delivers 160 bhp and 330 Nm of torque. The second option is a 2.2-litre, four-cylinder, mHawk diesel engine producing 150bhp and 330 Nm of torque. Buyers can choose between a six-speed manual or automatic transmission, catering to both performance enthusiasts and those seeking a more relaxed driving experience.
Design Highlights:
The 2024 Mahindra Thar Roxx brings notable design upgrades. The exterior features a new grille, C-shaped LED DRLs, projector headlamps, and circular fog lights. It also gets dual-tone alloy wheels and rear-door-mounted handles for easy access. At the rear, the SUV is equipped with rectangular LED tail lights and a tailgate-mounted spare wheel, enhancing its rugged appeal.
