Pros & Cons

PROS
You maintain total control over the AXT 2.2 L mHawk Turbo Diesel D117 CRDe RWD's power band, avoiding the lag of some automatics.
It feels rock-solid and highly planted on the highway at triple-digit speeds.
The elevated seating position commands instant respect in heavy city traffic.
The robust suspension simply swallows up deep, unpredictable city potholes.
The THAR pulls effortlessly, even with a fully loaded cabin and AC running.
Cabin insulation effectively blocks out annoying traffic noise and wind sheer.
The AllGrip Pro 4x4 system with a low-range transfer case effortlessly conquers severe mud, sand, and rocky trails.
Steering mounted controls allow you to safely manage media while navigating treacherous mountain paths.
GPS navigation integrated directly into the dashboard ensures you never get lost on remote expeditions.
ISOFIX mounts securely strap down child seats if you decide to take the family on an off-road adventure.
The rugged, ladder-frame chassis easily absorbs brutal impacts from deep potholes and massive boulders.
CONS
The lack of a factory parking camera makes reversing the massive THAR AXT 2.2 L mHawk Turbo Diesel D117 CRDe RWD unnecessarily stressful.
Standard steel wheels make the THAR look too basic and utilitarian at this tier.
Operating media without a digital display in the THAR AXT 2.2 L mHawk Turbo Diesel D117 CRDe RWD feels like a step back in time.
You sacrifice the aesthetic appeal and airiness of a glass roof at this trim tier.
The absence of autonomous braking puts the total burden of safety entirely on the driver.
The heavy body-on-frame setup means the ride can feel noticeably bouncy on bad roads.
You completely miss out on automatic climate control, leaving you to twist physical dials in extreme summer heat.
The manual gearbox demands heavy physical effort when crawling through severe evening city traffic jams.
The stark lack of cruise control makes long, straight highway runs incredibly fatiguing on your right leg.
Halogen lighting feels completely inadequate when driving through pitch-black, unlit forest trails.
The basic interior materials aggressively prioritize rugged durability over any sense of premium passenger comfort.
