Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Hyundai Alcazar
- Feature rich experience: Panoramic sunroof, front and rear ventilated seats, 2 zones of climate control, and 8-speaker BOSE sound system
- Great chauffeur driven car: Captain seats with electric boss mode, headrests supports, extendable under thigh support and seat ventilation
- Cabin experience: Fit, finish and ergonomics are on point
- Offers both petrol and diesel engines with manual and automatic transmissions
Mahindra Thar
- Attention grabbing design. Looks macho and has a strong road presence
- Available with petrol and diesel engines with a choice of 6-speed manual or automatic transmissions for both.
- More tech: Brake based differential locking system, auto locking rear mechanical differential, shift-on-the-fly 4x4 with low range, 10.25-inch touchscreen with off-road gauges, Android Auto, Apple CarPlay and navigation
- Improved noise vibration and harshness management offers a more refined experience

Hyundai Alcazar
- Turbo-petrol fuel efficiency is not great in the city. Expect 7-9kmpl
- 3rd row is not suitable for full-sized adults
Mahindra Thar
- Stiff ride quality. Deals with bad roads well but sharp bumps can unsettle the cabin quite easily
- Old school ladder frame SUV and behaves like one. Loads of body roll even on mild curves
- Some cabin flaws: Rear windows aren’t openable and thick B pillars create large blind spots to the side
- Not an alternative to family-friendly sub-compact/compact SUVs that are more comfortable, practical, spacious and feature-loaded
