The Thar Roxx is the brilliant, highly anticipated 5-door evolution of the iconic off-roader. It fixes the biggest flaw of the 3-door model by adding genuine family practicality, rear doors, and a massively improved ride quality. If you loved the macho stance of the original Thar but needed space for the kids and actual luggage, this is the uncompromising solution.
Mahindra Thar Roxx price starts at ₹ 12.39 Lakh and goes upto ₹ 22.25 Lakh (Avg. Ex-Showroom, Delhi). It is offered in 28 variants. The base model is Mahindra Thar Roxx MX1 Petrol 2WD and the top model is Mahindra Thar Roxx AX7L 4WD MOCHA INTRS Diesel AT.
Skip the base MX1 trims if you want the modern tech and creature comforts expected in a modern family SUV. The MX5 Diesel 4WD makes far more sense if you want essential off-road capability combined with usable daily features. Stretch to the flagship AX7L automatics only if you want the panoramic sunroof, ADAS features, and the premium Mocha interior to turn your rugged off-roader into a luxury cruiser.
Early adopters are thrilled that they no longer have to compromise on family comfort to enjoy the Thar lifestyle. The premium interior and massive panoramic sunroof receive high praise. However, drivers quickly note that maneuvering such a long, heavy vehicle in narrow city alleys requires massive concentration and frequent three-point turns.
Given the frenzy around the launch and the badge value, it is expected to hold value incredibly well.
Servicing aligns with standard premium mid-size SUV rates, making it reasonably predictable for a 2.0L/2.2L engine.
Yes, if you skip the mid-to-high trims, you will miss out on the crucial touchscreen and tech features that make the cabin feel modern.
In heavy city traffic, expect 9-11 kmpl; on the highway, it can comfortably stretch to 14-16 kmpl with the diesel.
Yes, its elongated heavy ladder-frame chassis and addition of 6 airbags and Level 2 ADAS make it feel like a highly secure fortress on the highway.
Demand is astronomical; expect wait times to easily stretch well over 10 weeks for popular trims.
Expect premiums to reflect standard premium SUV segment rates for a comprehensive policy.
The breakover angle is slightly reduced compared to the 3-door, but it remains vastly more capable than any soft-roader crossover.
Mahindra heavily reworked the suspension; it is noticeably smoother and vastly more comfortable for rear passengers.
Maneuvering its massive footprint in tight traffic requires serious spatial awareness, but the commanding view helps.
Yes, if you drive heavily in stop-and-go traffic, the massive heavy build will result in thirsty, single-digit efficiency.
Finding a spot for this wide, long SUV can be a chore in older, crowded city layouts, though higher trims offer cameras to assist.
