Exterior

This vehicle  is a real bad boy it looks tough, it look powerful and bold without any doubt. The personality it have is perfect for an offroader, the presence on the road is just mind blowing and when it come to its habitat  then you'll drop your jaw definitely. 

Front  face 
The front of this vehicle  is very busy but the boldness is there with full attitude. Old school type rounded headlamps are giving it kind of retro punch which dissolves with the face nicely.
Big wheel archs are holding the turn indicators and this fashion  of high hood and low & big  wheel arch is very  cool and gives you bossy  vibes. The bumper of the Thar is big as well, fog lamps are on the bumper. 
Grill of Thar is not too stylish  it is simple but those straight fitted thick rods making is very special. OVRMs are almost  square shaped and big in size.

Side profile  
From side its ground clearance, height and massive  wheel take of the attention. So tgethe  first thing is that there is no door for rear row so you can call it two door  vehicle. So in the hard top version you have to pull the co passenger  seat ahead and then you'll  find a way to rear seats but in convertible  version you can climb  to the rear row from here there every where.

The wheels are too big and that's good actually  because its an offroading animal after all. Ground  clearance  is great, you get side plate as well to climb in.

Back side
Most of the back is occurredoccupied  by the spare wheel and the best part is there is no cross cutting spare wheel is same as the other and its  an alloy too. Horizontally open boot gate and in hard top you'll  get glass panal as wel and you can lift it.
You get reactangle  shaped  tail lights  setup, there are parking sensors but unfortunately  there is no parking camera and in this price tag I want a camera at least in the top end. 

Interior 

The interior is nice but space is not the usp. Rear seats of the Thar are comfortable but space is not much, leg room is good, knee is nice but under thigh support is bit lacking and head room is great.
Rear seats of hard top version might bring claustrophobic  feel because you can't open the windows although the glass is very big which bring too much light but I have seen some people who don't enjoy fixed windows. But convertible is the real fun.
Front seats are good and comfortable as well they provide good amount  of support and good posture.
Coming  to dashboard, it look amazing Mahindra put every element great. The infotainment screen is not too big but provides nice amount of informations, big round shaped AC vents, here you'll get too lever one for gears and other one is for differential setting. 
Steering wheel is nice and have good feel as well it have volume buttons on it cruise  control  buttons on it.
Instrument cluster have analog speedometer  and tachometer and at the center there is small digital screen which shows plenty of information.



Always wear helmet while riding
and
seat belt while driving.
