The eagerly awaited Mahindra Thar 5-door has been in the works for quite some time now. Finally, the realization of this vehicle has been achieved, and it has been spotted testing on several occasions. The vehicle has been announced to be launched in the Indian market in 2024. The 5-door version of the Thar is expected to have a slightly different character than the 3-door Thar.
The Mahindra Thar 5-door will be a long-wheelbase version of the existing Thar, with an expected wheelbase of 300 mm longer. This longer wheelbase is expected to provide more cabin space for rear-seat passengers. It remains to be seen whether Mahindra will provide individual rear seats or a bench seat setup in the 5-door Thar. The vehicle will be feature-rich and is expected to be a top-notch off-roader SUV, equipped with a sunroof, Android Auto, Apple CarPlay connectivity, an updated touchscreen infotainment system, and many other features.
In terms of size, the new 5-door Thar is expected to be 3985 mm in length, 1820 mm in width, and 1844 mm in height, making it larger than the Jimny. The company will offer a 2.0-liter turbo petrol engine and a 2.2-liter diesel engine for this vehicle.
As for the price, the 5-door Mahindra Thar is expected to compete with the recently launched Maruti Jimny. However, being a larger and more powerful car, the Thar is likely to be priced higher than the Jimny, which is currently available at a starting price of 12.74 lakh to 15.05 lakh rupees (ex-showroom).
Overall, the Mahindra Thar 5-door promises to be a powerhouse off-roader with enhanced features and a larger, more spacious design, catering to the needs of SUV enthusiasts in India.
