Pros & Cons

- Strong features list: Dual 10.25” displays, Level 2 ADAS, 8-way powered driver seat, and a panoramic sunroof
- Rear seat experience: Good space and convenience features like sunshades and headrest pillows
- Multiple powertrains: Offers both petrol and diesel engines with both manual and automatic options
Mahindra Thar OG
- Classic ‘Jeep’ looks, butch and square stance turns heads.
- Powerful 2.0-litre turbo petrol and 2.2-litre diesel engine options. Great for highway trips while smooth for city driving too.

- Limited automatic variants, with the turbo engine available in only one variant

Mahindra Thar OG
- Cramped rear seat access and space. Best for occasional use only.
