Q. What type of automatic transmission is used in Thar? I mean are they making their own automatic gearbox? And another question is can anyone review about the maintenance of that automatic gearbox because the one they used in Scorpio was flopped?

Mahindra Thar is available with two engine options: a 130PS/300Nm 2.2-litre diesel engine and a 150PS/320Nm 2.0-litre turbo petrol engine. Both engines are offered with a choice of 6-speed manual and 6-speed torque-converter automatic transmission, and with a 4x4 drivetrain with a low range transfer case as standard. Moreover, the reliability of the gear box would depend on certain factors such as timely maintenance, driving conditions, driving style, keeping a check on car's health, etc. The petrol-automatic feels very refined and torquey to use. The Aisin-sourced 6-speed automatic was unsurprising; smooth but slow as durability is more important than lightning quick shifts in vehicles such as the Thar. For a better understanding of compatibility and performance, we would suggest you to take a test drive.
