The Thar RWD is available with two engine options. These include the D117 1.5-litre diesel engine, which has been introduced on the Thar for the first time.

It is offered with a 6-speed automatic gearbox.

Mahindra has also made some changes to the Thar 4WD. It now comes with an electronic brake locking differential, which is expected to enhance its all-terrain capabilities even further.
