6. Driving & Comfort
Driving & Comfort Assessment
City Driving
The automatic transmission makes stop-and-go traffic easy to manage. Excellent ground clearance handles speed breakers and potholes with ease.
Highway Performance
The 130 bhp engine is sufficient for highway cruising but needs planning for quick overtakes. Strong diesel torque of 300 Nm makes highway driving relaxed, especially in higher gears.
Ride & Comfort
Independent rear suspension provides a plush ride, absorbing bumps well. High ground clearance gives confidence over rough patches and unpaved roads. Road and engine noise are noticeable, typical for this segment. 350L boot space is adequate for weekend trips.
7. Community Sentiment
Community verdict for Mahindra Thar: Sentiment is overwhelmingly positive. Owners frequently praise feature-love.

"The Mahindra Thar ROXX: The mahindra thar ROXX is a high capable, 5-door lifestyle SUV that balance rugged off-road credentials with improved family practicality, offering a more comfortable ride, spacious cabin and premium features like a panoramic sunroof compound to its 3- door predecessor. It features refined diesel and petrol engines with light steering though some user note a stiff low speed ride and inconsistent interior material quality,"
"Best SUV For Adventure And City Drive: Mahindra Thar ka look bahut powerful aur attractive lagta hai. Iski road presence alag hi feel deti hai aur driving experience bhi kaafi amazing hai. Off-roading ke liye ye ek best SUV mani jati hai, lekin city me bhi comfortable driving deti hai. Engine performance strong hai aur pickup bhi kaafi smooth feel hota hai. Interior pehle se better aur modern lagta hai. Safety features aur ground clearance bhi impressive hain. Long drive aur adventure lovers ke liye Thar ek perfect choice hai. Overall style, power aur performance ka bahut accha combination milta hai."
"Upgradation: Good road presence, all but only feature i miss in this is sunroof. Roxx with sunroff is good but, i like compact design of 3 door. If 3 door comes with sunroof this could be a game changer. Also the interior option must be widen as a thar lover i have to modify the interior for better feel, if company give option like colour and textures thic could be great."
"best for the daily use and comfortable and best performance this best for the family tour and powerful machine so this best for middle class1family."
