Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which car is better Thar or Gurkha?
  • Thar
  • Both the cars are good in their forte. Thar looks modern with tweaked styling and improved interiors. The drivetrain includes petrol, diesel and automatic options. 4x4 is standard. Washable interiors are a nice touch. The Thar's appeal and promise to take you on great adventures is a big draw but living with it every day will still ask you to make many compromises. As a second car or for those who just need the utility of the 4x4 the Thar’s appeal is undeniable. On the other hand, Gurkha's old-school design, comfortable seating for four, pliant low-speed ride, surprisingly easy to drive in the city, and refined engine. Even when it comes to practicality it is spacious and has comfortable seating for four and unlike its main rival, the Mahindra Thar, it gets a proper boot. The engine is more refined than before, it is surprisingly easy to drive at city speeds, and the low-speed ride is very comfortable which makes it quite good for everyday commutes. But it doesn’t quite have the requisite dual personality which we’ve come to expect of modern cars. For a better understanding of compatibility and driving comfort, we would suggest you to take a test drive. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership.Read more -Mahindra Thar Road Test Review: Has The Monster Been Tamed?.-2021 Force Gurkha first drive review: A good alternative to the Thar?.
Q. How many variants of Thar are available?
  • Mahindra Thar is available in 2 broad trims: AX (O)
Q. Mahindra Thar or Scorpio, which has better fuel economy?
  • Mahindra Scorpio returns better mileage. As the ARAI claimed mileage for all the variants of Mahindra Scorpio is 16.36 Kmpl whereas the ARAI claimed mileage for all the variants of Mahindra Thar is 15.2 Kmpl. For a better understanding of compatibility and driving comfort, we would suggest you to take a test drive. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership.

    my favourite off roading suv 

    The new Mahindra thar is Everyone's favorite SUV in today's time because of it's aggressive looks and rough and tough performance. this car comes with a powerfull 2184 CC engine which gives smooth performance even on hilly areas. the major drawback beside the performance is that the cabin is not much comfortable and the rear window can't be opened. the ground clearance is mind blowing and suspension is on next level. pricing is moderate for this segment.

    Good for young person 

    The Mahindra Thar was my first automobile, and it was exciting. This SUV is strong and sturdy, great for my commute and off-roading. The cabin is spacious and comfortable for passengers and cargo. A strong engine makes the automobile handle effectively on all terrains. My SUV has good fuel efficiency, saving me money. I admire the Thar's raw simplicity. Driving the Mahindra Thar is thrilling, and I'm glad I chose it.

    Mahindra Thar: A Adventure Beauty 

    I recently took my Mahindra Thar on an unforgettable road trip to the picture perfect hills of Manali and I must tell you it was an absolute pleasure experience. The Thar has 2.2L mHawk diesel engine with the help of that it easily handled the bumpy surface like a champion. The 4x4 drivetrain was a real lifesaver on those tricky, off road sections.One of the high points of the trip was definitely the open rooftop experience which allows us to felt in love with the scenic beauty.

    everyone's favourite 

    In the matter of space, comfort and luxury, the Mahindra Thar is hands down, one of the best mahindra models. It is perfect for four people, better space and room as compared to the other mahindra models. The drive train is AWD and the most convenient part is that it gives options in transmission. One can choose manual or automatic as per their desire. Its turbocharged engine is powerful. It is very expensive going and is also suitable for off roading.

    Good Car 

    The excitement for the Tata Altroz Racer is increasing, and I'm looking forward to its formal market release. The concept car's strong style and sporting characteristics piqued my interest. Tata Motors' projected performance enhancements and driving dynamics with the racer version have piqued my interest. It can turn heads and give an exciting driving experience. I hope Tata motors will make this intriguing idea a reality soon. Since it would undoubtedly appeal to vehicle enthusiasts like me who want a sportier hatchback choice and can’t wait to drive it soon.
