There is still a Mahindra event on August 15 but its exact details are unknown, but we’re expecting to see closer-to-production versions of some of their upcoming electric SUVs. The carmaker plans to launch its fresh line of EVs from 2025, starting with the XUV e8 which is the electric version of the XUV700.

As per our last spy shot, the 5-door Thar appears to be nearly production-ready. It will have a similar design language to the three-door version inside and out, save for the two more doors. Two important additions will be a full metal hard top and an electric sunroof. Other features expected are a 7-inch touchscreen system, cruise control, auto AC, six airbags, and a rear camera.

The more practical Thar will be propelled by the same 2-litre turbo-petrol and 2.2-litre diesel engines as the 3-door Thar, possibly in a higher state of tune. 6-speed manual and automatic transmissions will also be offered with both the engines. Just like the 3-door, we’re expecting the 5-door version with rear-wheel- and four-wheel drivetrains.


The 5-door Thar is likely to retail from around Rs 15 lakh (ex-showroom), serving as a bigger and more premium option to the Maruti Jimny.
