But then lap times of 0-100 kmph done in 17.77 seconds is good by any chance for a jeep. |
In terms of flat-out performance, the Thar takes 17.05sec to reach the 100kph mark and thanks to the torquey nature of the engine, in-gear times are impressive too. |
The Thar will hit 100 km/h from a standstill in 17.58 seconds |

Again, There is something wrong about these figures for sure. And again, Dad or spike would be the BEST person to comment. |

Cyrus, I am not telling anything about the production ones, but there are a few here which are VERY FAST. One of them easily does 0-100 in sub 15 seconds (you know what I am talking about). The m-Hawk variant would be even fun to work with! Spike:D PS- It is "preferred" to do acceleration tests on a properly run in vehicle, 521 is one among them.:) |

He was one who told me once, (when I drove up to him and said if he wanted me to give him a ride) that I am so used to luxury that I can't imagine sitting in a Santro:Shockked: (I own a Santro). ============ Yikes! |

No offence to your neighbor, but the target audience of Thar is predominantly such people and not 4x4 guys. Good thing is they can afford such "life style" vehicles, even better is that they would soon throw it out at dirt cheap price. As a helpful neighbor you should really guide him to take the pain off his hands and to luxury ;) |

Numerous Thar CDRe and Thar DI (2WD) have been sighted on NH-17 in Udupi while they were racing towards Kerala. This has been happening on a daily basis. This means the running-in is done by the transportation drivers. |

Jaggu , All the machines are just mix and match and keep going to workshops or simply moving to the next part for another Trial and error is this what you mean by a 4x4 guy should do ? |

Sam, Thar DI's are driven, CRDe's are taken in containers, they (CRDe's) may be driven a few kilometers to dealerships. If it is not the case, let us know. |

Hi, My neighbor has bought a Thar CRDe, Silver with BFG tyres and awesome looking alloys before me:eek:. What surprises me is that he is such a luxury car freak and would never imagine himself in a Non AC car. He was one who told me once, (when I drove up to him and said if he wanted me to give him a ride) that I am so used to luxury that I can't imagine sitting in a Santro:Shockked: (I own a Santro). I am so startled at his buy (coz of his superior luxurious attitude) and he has already received the vehicle. The Thar looks awesome and all of us are so glued looking at it (neighbors envy, owners pride):Cheering: I'm sure going to get one in the next 4 to 6 months. Yikes! |

Dear Yikes - when I read your post, at first I thought "Yikes! :Shockked:. But then I remembered that when we had shown the vehicle to DKG and Fazalbhai, DKG had commented that with correct inputs, this vehicle will attract A+ and B segment passenger car buyers (read the first post of the "Thar She Blows" thread). Viper (Jiggy) had also made a similar comment after he saw the performance of the Thar as it just took off and ran away from his imported and race modified Honda Civic on the meandering stretch of the Mumbai Goa highway between Panvel and Wadkhal Naka when we were on our way to Alibag for an OTR. V16 (Gogibhai) was with me in the car at that time. You must read those comments also. I am exactly getting the inputs from the field that I want. Thank you very much. clap:. Best regards, Behram Dhabhar |
