Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which car is better Thar or Gurkha?
  • Both the cars are good in their forte. Thar looks modern with tweaked styling and improved interiors. The drivetrain includes petrol, diesel and automatic options. 4x4 is standard. Washable interiors are a nice touch. The Thar's appeal and promise to take you on great adventures is a big draw but living with it every day will still ask you to make many compromises. As a second car or for those who just need the utility of the 4x4 the Thar’s appeal is undeniable. On the other hand, Gurkha's old-school design, comfortable seating for four, pliant low-speed ride, surprisingly easy to drive in the city, and refined engine. Even when it comes to practicality it is spacious and has comfortable seating for four and unlike its main rival, the Mahindra Thar, it gets a proper boot. The engine is more refined than before, it is surprisingly easy to drive at city speeds, and the low-speed ride is very comfortable which makes it quite good for everyday commutes. But it doesn’t quite have the requisite dual personality which we’ve come to expect of modern cars. For a better understanding of compatibility and driving comfort, we would suggest you to take a test drive.

    A True Off-Roader with Room for Improvement 

    My adventures over the past six months with the new Mahindra Thar have been nothing short of spectacular. This rugged machine, equipped with a 2.2-liter mHawk diesel engine, which delivers a decent 130 PS and a robust 300 Nm of torque is built to tackle any terrain. The 4x4 capability means that muddy fields and rocky paths are a breeze for Thar.Though the Thar shines off road, daily driving paints a different picture. For starters, its heavy steering and firm suspension can make regular city commutes quite a task.

    Mahindra Thar: The Off-Road King 

    Ever since I got my hands on the Mahindra Thar, it has been an exhilarating journey of discovering landscapes I never thought I would explore. This beast, with its 2.2 liter mHawk diesel engine pushing out 130hp is unapologetically powerful and ready to tackle the most challenging terrains. The 4x4 capability makes it a dream for off road enthusiasts like myself.However, driving through city traffic in the Thar is where the romance slightly fades.The heavy steering and the firm suspension setup, while perfect for rugged terrains and uncomfortable on urban roads.

    A perfect for adventure car model, the Mahindra Thar is an iconic and powerful car model. I have been driving this since quite a few months and have enjoyed the rides. My experience has been so good that i will recommend this to people who are looking to buy such a car that meets all their needs. I admire its powerful engine, with which this car model ensures a reliable drive through for long urbanic commute or even off roading while maintaining the fuel efficiency at its best.
