Mahindra will also be offering the new Thar with front-facing rear seats and a factory-fitted hardtop for the first time. It features washable floor area, IP54-rated water and dust resistant cabin, and a convertible soft top. While the new Thar will continue to cater to the needs of adventure enthusiasts, Mahindra has ensured it is a city-friendly SUV as well. Other features include a 7.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, cruise control, and keyless entry. For a detailed look at the variant-wise features, head here.

Mahindra had put the first Thar under the hammer so as to donate the proceeds towards COVID-19 relief work. It has grabbed a mammoth bid of Rs 1.11 crore while the remaining Thars are expected to be priced in the range of Rs 10 lakh to Rs 13 lakh (ex-showroom). The Thar will rival the Force Gurkha and Maruti Suzuki Jimny once they are launched. Owing to its price, the Mahindra SUV will go up against a few compact SUVs like the Hyundai Venue, Kia Sonet, Nissan Kicks, and Renault Duster as well as a few variants of the Kia Seltos and Hyundai Creta.
