The popular lifestyle SUV, the Mahindra Thar, is set to receive a comprehensive mid-cycle refresh tomorrow. While its mechanical capabilities remain largely intact, the facelift focuses heavily on modern styling, advanced technology, and a more comfortable cabin experience.
Here are the five biggest updates to look forward to:
1. New Grille With ‘Thar’ Logo
The front fascia gets a modern refresh inspired by the larger five-door Thar Roxx. It features a new five-slat grille complete with an integrated ‘Thar’ motif, giving the rugged SUV a sharper and more contemporary road presence.
2. Fresh Alloy Wheel Designs
Spy shots and teasers indicate that Mahindra will introduce all-new alloy wheel designs. These updated wheels aim to freshen up the side profile of the three-door off-roader with a flashier aesthetic compared to the current version.
3. Roxx-Inspired Lighting Package
Borrowing heavily from its newer sibling, the Thar Roxx, the facelifted model receives a modern lighting overhaul. This includes:
-
Revised LED headlamps
-
Updated daytime running lamps (DRLs)
-
New LED taillamp design
4. More Features Than Ever Before
Moving away from its strictly utilitarian roots, the facelift adds modern conveniences designed to make urban driving much easier. Expected feature additions include:
-
360-degree camera for easier maneuvering
-
Automatic climate control
-
Fully digital instrument cluster
5. More Premium Cabin With Ventilated Seats
The interior steps up its comfort levels with the introduction of leatherette upholstery and ventilated front seats. Additionally, Mahindra has tuned the seat bolstering to offer improved support during long drives and off-road excursions.
