Mahindra has launched the all-new Thar starting at Rs 9.99 lakh. The go-to choice in SUVs has now gained a stock of new design refreshments such as advanced comfort features, smart tech, and a few other additions that will ensure you glide over your next weekend off-roading trip without breaking a sweat.
What’s new with the design
As seen on the test mules, the new Thar has a fresh front fascia complemented by a dual-tone front bumper and R18 alloy wheels. All of these further add to the overall stance and appeal of the vehicle. Mahindra will now provide an all-new all-black theme interior with a new steering wheel. Beyond that, buyers will now be able to choose from an extended myriad of exterior colours, as two new colours by the name of Tango Red and Battleship Grey have been added to the mix.
New additions to the interior
Keeping convenience as the main focus, Mahindra has now equipped the once spartan off-roader with new features such as rear AC vents to ensure that your friends enjoy your next off-roading ordeal as well. Beyond that, a sliding armrest and a dead pedal in automatic variants further increase the comfort quotient of the SUV. Beyond that, users will get door-mounted power windows and a rear-view camera to provide ease of driving. No longer will users have to deboard to get the refueling done, as the car now has an internally operated lid. And beyond that, Mahindra has added the new Thar with a rear wiper and washer along with A-pillar entry-assist handles for those tricky entries on trails.
Smart connectivity and features
The all-new Thar will now be equipped with a 26.03 cm HD infotainment screen that will support both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay along with USB Type-C ports, providing users with seamless integration of smartphone functionalities in the car’s systems. Beyond that, the all-new Thar now has a direction monitoring system that will give real-time information on the tyre orientation, enhancing the safety of the users.
Specially for the off-roading enthusiast, the Adventure Stats Gen II feature offers valuable off-road data such as racing tab, altimeter, outside temperature and pressure, trip meter, and steering direction, ensuring a better driving experience.
