The 4WD variants of the off-roader are uniformly pricier by Rs 28,200

Mahindra Thar 4X2

  • All variants of the SUV get a price increment, except for the petrol automatic LX RWD variant.

  • The highest hike of Rs 55,500 is for the diesel variants of the RWD Thar.

  • Thar comes with three engine options: 2-litre turbo-petrol, 2.2-litre diesel and a 1.5-litre diesel (RWD only).

  • It is now priced between Rs 10.55 lakh and Rs 16.77 lakh (ex-showroom).

Price hikes have hit customers left, right & centre in the wake of the BS6 phase two norms and to add to the misery, the Mahindra Thar has gotten even dearer! After increasing the prices of its Bolero range in March, the carmaker has updated the prices of its lifestyle SUV, consequently ending the introductory prices of its recently introduced rear-wheel drive (RWD) variants.
