The exterior of the 2025 Mahindra Thar Facelift gets some notable changes. The most prominent update is the body-coloured grille, which gives the SUV a more modern and refined look. In addition, the Thar facelift now features a dual-tone front bumper.

Mahindra has also introduced two new exterior colour options - Tango Red, which replaces the previous red, and Battleship Grey, giving the Thar a fresher, more contemporary feel. Despite these changes, the overall look of the Thar remains familiar, retaining the signature headlights, tail-lights, and 18-inch alloy wheels that off-road lovers.
Inside, the 2025 Thar Facelift has undergone several changes. The cabin now features a new black dashboard theme, which provides a more premium feel. The steering wheel has also been redesigned, offering better ergonomics and a more refined driving experience.
Rear passengers will benefit from the addition of rear AC vents, ensuring better cabin cooling during long journeys. The power window switches have been moved to the doors for more ergonomic access, and both the driver and front passenger get individual centre armrests with storage space. A fuel-lid opener button has been added near the steering, making it easier to access the fuel tank.

The 2025 Thar Facelift comes packed with new features. A major highlight is the new 10.25-inch infotainment touchscreen, which comes with an updated off-road suite, providing vital information to the driver during off-road adventures.
In terms of safety, Mahindra has added a rear camera and rear wiper with washer, improving visibility when reversing. These updates, along with the new infotainment system, make the 2025 Mahindra Thar facelift an even more appealing option for both city driving and off-road expeditions.
The 2025 Mahindra Thar Facelift continues to offer the same robust engine options as before. The 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine produces 152hp, while the 1.5-litre diesel engine offers 119hp, and the 2.2-litre diesel engine delivers 132hp. These engines are paired with manual and automatic gearbox options.
The 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine is available with optional 4WD, while the 2.2-litre diesel engine comes with standard 4WD, making it ideal for off-road enthusiasts. The same reliable engine and gearbox combinations continue to provide power and performance on various terrains.
