Mahindra Thar 5-Door: Will Get More Features

The Thar 3-door is already quite well specced, but Mahindra is going the extra mile to equip the 5-door model to the brim with more utilitarian features. These include the aforementioned sunroof, front central armrest, larger infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, multiple seating configurations including captain seats for the second row, new upholstery, increased cabin storage spaces, and more.

Rajesh Jejurikar, Executive Director & CEO (Auto and Farm Sector), Mahindra and Mahindra Ltd, stated, “Our 5-door Thar is not coming in this calendar year, much as many folks are speculating it is. It's a 2024 [calendar year] launch”.

Currently, more than 2 lakh units of the Thar 3-door, XUV700, ScorpioN and Scorpio Classic are yet to be delivered. The company has also stated that it will launch any new models in the market only next year.
