Thar 5-door will get a long feature list and multiple powertrain options.

The Mahindra Thar SUV has been one of the most popular models for the brand in recent times. The brand is gearing up to expand the line-up with the Thar 5-door. Fresh spy shots show the upcoming SUV equipped with a sunroof.

Mahindra Thar 5 door to be feature laden

While the Thar 3 door has carved out its own niche among Indian lifestyle vehicle customers, Mahindra wants to aim the Thar 5-door at buyers who are looking for a rugged and practical lifestyle SUV with similar character as the Thar 3 door. The Thar 5-door will not have just an additional set of doors but will have a much longer feature list too including a sunroof, which has now been confirmed, thanks to the new set of spy shots that have surfaced online. Unlike the Thar 3-door, Mahindra will most likely not have a soft-top variant on the Thar 5-door. Mahindra will equip the Thar 5-door with a front center armrest, an updated touchscreen infotainment system, more storage spaces in the cabin, multiple seating options including two individual seats for the second row and better quality materials on the inside.

Mahindra Thar 5 door launch next year

Mahindra recently announced that the brand currently has its hands full in clearing the ever increasing existing order backlog. More than two lakh units combined of SUVs like the Thar 3-door, the XUV700, the Scoprio N and the Scorpio Classic are yet to be delivered to customers as of this month. The company therefore has clarified that while there are multiple ongoing new product developments in the background, it will introduce fresh SUVs in the Indian market only next year as it currently is focusing in delivering existing orders.

“Our five-door Thar is not coming in this calendar year, much as many folks are speculating it is. It’s a 2024 [calendar year] launch”, said Rajesh Jejurikar, Executive Director & CEO (Auto and Farm Sector), Mahindra and Mahindra Ltd.

Apart from the readying the Thar 5- door for a market launch, Mahindra is also readying a major update on the XUV300 compact SUV for a 2024 launch.
