Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Mahindra Thar ROXX
- Old-school boxy SUV styling grabs attention and has more road presence than similarly priced SUVs
- Both engines options deliver punchy performance and good driveability even with a full passenger load
- Rich features list: Panoramic sunroof, Harman Kardon audio, powered driver seat, ventilated front seats, and ADAS
- 5/5 start safety rating from Bharat NCAP. Base model is strong on safety too
- Very capable off-road. 4x4 option gives you absolute freedom to explore but even the rear-wheel drive is very capable
Hyundai Creta
- Cabin experience: Attention to finish with smooth surfaces and leatherette padding feels premium
- 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 ROXX
- Ride quality is not as comfortable as cars like the Hyundai Creta, Maruti Grand Vitara or Skoda Kushaq. Bad roads can toss occupants around, especially in the rear seat
- Petrol engine is high on performance but also high on fuel consumption
- No 4x4 petrol option
Hyundai Creta
- Boot space: Shallow boot is more suitable for small trolley bags, not large suitcases
- Limited automatic variants, with the turbo engine available in only one variant
- BNCAP score is missing
