Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which car is better Thar or Gurkha?
  • Thar
  • 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. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership.Read more -Mahindra Thar Road Test Review: Has The Monster Been Tamed?.-2021 Force Gurkha first drive review: A good alternative to the Thar?.
Q. What is the difference between Z2 and Z4?
  • The Z2 variant is pretty basic, with halogen lamps, 16-inch steel wheels, electrically powered steering wheel only for the petrol variants (hydraulic assist for diesel), and power windows. On the other hand, the Z4 variant gains some necessary equipment like wheel covers, a cooled glove box, an AC module for the second row, height adjustment for the driver’s seat with lumbar support, cruise control, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. For a better understanding of compatibility and driving comfort, we would suggest you to take a test drive. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.
Q. How many variants of Thar are available?
  • Mahindra Thar is available in 2 broad trims: AX (O)
