Mahindra unveils 5-door Thar Roxx: Check launch date, features and ex-showroom price | Watch Teaser

PTC Web Desk: Mahindra and Mahindra have officially revealed that the 5-door version of the Thar will be called the Mahindra Thar Roxx. This highly anticipated SUV will debut on August 15, the same date the current generation Thar was unveiled four years ago. The company also released a teaser video, offering a glimpse of the Thar Roxx's new features and design.

The Thar Roxx maintains its family resemblance to the Thar, but introduces several updates. Along with the addition of two doors, the Thar Roxx features increased length and wheelbase, which enhances interior space and ease of access. Design updates include new circular LED headlights and a redesigned grille, giving it a fresh yet familiar look.



Engine Options

The Thar Roxx is expected to offer two engine choices: a 2.0L turbo-petrol motor and a 2.2L diesel engine. Both engines will be available with 6-speed manual and 6-speed automatic transmission options. The SUV will come equipped with a 4x4 drivetrain, featuring a low-ratio gearbox, a mechanical locking differential on the rear axle, and a brake-locking front axle. To keep prices competitive, Mahindra might also offer two-wheel drive variants.

Design and Features

In addition to the new headlights and grille, the Thar Roxx teaser reveals a redesigned bumper and new alloy wheels, likely measuring 18 inches and featuring a diamond-cut finish. The increased length due to the longer wheelbase allows for rear doors, improving ingress and egress and providing more space for rear passengers. Lower variants will offer steel wheels. At the rear, while the tail lamp design remains consistent with previous models, the elements have been revised.

Interior and Technology

The feature list for the Thar Roxx has been expanded to include a larger touchscreen infotainment system, automatic climate control, and a sunroof. Expected additions include rear AC vents, a revised instrument cluster, and a front parking camera, all aimed at providing a premium experience.

Pricing

The Mahindra Thar Roxx is expected to be priced competitively, with starting prices around Rs 13 lakh and going up to Rs 25 lakh, ex-showroom.

Mahindra is focusing on delivering a premium yet practical off-roading experience with the Thar Roxx. Veejay Nakra, President of the Automotive Sector at M&M Ltd., commented, "The Thar Roxx, with its distinctive design, premium quotient, advanced technology, enhanced performance, sophistication, and safety, is ‘THE’ SUV. While retaining the core attributes of the iconic Thar, the Thar Roxx represents the larger-than-life personality of a rockstar and will disrupt the SUV category."
