None of the ‘hard-core’ off-roaders I know would even go within a mile of a thar for serious off roading. Enlighten me on the high benchmarks that this model set ?please: ? The owner s I know love they way they look but hate almost everything else about it from the quality, ride and continuous niggles . No offence to Thar owners but it’s about time we call a spade a spade. I’m hoping for better things with the new gen Thar and it should cover all the deficiencies of the original thar. |

It would be interesting to know just what the term 'hard-core' off-roader means. Not the kind, I hope, who go hunting in packs & spend a day splashing about in mud and other assorted "off-road" trails, with a decent safety-net of other like-minded individuals around them I understood the term to mean the few intrepid souls who go out on their own to get to a place (usually far from civilisation & without a well demarcated approach) which is largely inaccessible to lesser mortals like me. Such individuals can be found on these pages, though rare. |
-The petrol option alongside the diesel could be the 2.2-litre engine axed from the XUV500 updated to BS6 norms. -It could also feature a 6-speed torque converter along with the expected 6-speed manual gearbox. -Will get minor cosmetic enhancements on the outside compared to its predecessor. -Interior layout will be completely revamped alongside additional features. -Expected to carry a hefty premium over the current Thar 700 owing to its upgrades |

The interiors are sure a step forward and the Automatic is an excellent addition. But the Thar still doesn't seem to have internally adjustable mirrors? I am not even talking about electrically adjustable or foldable. :Frustrati |

Hahaha ! Just quoting the same term maverick has stated in his post, but we’re both on the same page. Unfortunately or fortunately, the place where I’m from ‘off roading ‘ is a way of life given the terrain and general absence of roads in many parts. We fall into the latter category. Function usually takes precedence over form in such situations |
