This is hands down the best review of Thar available. Great job🙏
The sheer road presence of the car is soo good that people will want to own it!
Excellent review. .. specially the tyre pressure thing which you mentioned with standard 16" rim , approach n departure angle etc .. great job
Very good review. None of the other reviews gave us an idea of the wind noise. Thank you!
Good to see Aqua marine. Why no TH-camr review with an Aqua marine?
Excellent detailing in review
What a great real-life and unbiased review! The review, as well as the vehicle, is fantastic! It looks like a very competent and hopefully not too expensive replacement for my ageing Nissan Patrol. Thanks again and greetings from South Africa!
What a review !!! What a Car!!! Superb !!!
Fantastically done!
It’s a lovely vehicle. These 16 inch contrast coloured steel wheels and those knobby tyres do look very purposeful.
If only Mahindra had totally nailed it by giving a more practical LX Variant for family category buyers... Bigger bootspace, better rear seats area
5 door version is coming
Why don't they just buy Scorpio?
@@reubinthomas I already own a Scorpio S11.... I have got stuck in mud and even simple grassland areas several times already....
@@reubinthomas my profession needs me to go with my staff and equipments to several off-road bad regions.... Wanted a more capable offroaders.... But I can't afford Jeep Wrangler.... Was planning to dispose Scorpio and adjust with 3 door Thar.... But the bootspace.... I also take my family for trips to the same new places I found during the duty assignments.... Scorpio has given me, my staff and family several stories already...

Too good review..I am waitinng forever for my convertible petrol automatic
Good review!
superb explanation
Excellent reviews
Excellent Review and very specific and right points. Bit concern on the Auto petrol about sucks and release at the gear changing time and the soft top sound while at 80 km speed which is a concern.
The real look and feel of Mahindra comes from the soft top and convertable.
As my second car I booked LX Auto Diesel soft top convertable. On road price in Bangalore is 17.3 lakhs plus few thousands will touch 18 bit high . Expected below 15😢
Wherever you are would like to hear Auto Diesel performance in hilly road s, on the hill espically overtaking trucks , slow down and overtaking on and offf. Any power drops at that point. About adventure accessory too.
Bertrand you reviewed very 👍🏼 Nice..
Does one can get the offroading tyres as shown in the video from the Mahindra showroom or it has to be purchased after market ?
Pretty good review. Reviewer has class and knows what he's talking about.
Because he is one of the oldest auto journos of India.
Good Review 👏👌👍
How does the soft convertible perform on highway at speeds of 80 and above, does it flap a lot or is acceptable.
Commenting for someone to reply
I hope u will be getting one soon @Bertrand
An honest review!
As good as Thar might be, I think it needed a proper full metal roof. They could have just made it two tone matte black to aid the looks. Would have helped keeping NVH levels low and lesser rattles over the years (that fibre hardtop will eventually start making noises) Also on large scale production it wouldnt have added too much to the cost.
Please review honda highnss cb 350 along with Royal Enfield classic 350
After sale service matters a lot. Has it improved?
What would be the mileage in the manual variant?
There is no doubt about off road Cabaplity. Please suggest is it good like compact suv on highway? I about to purchase ecosport but looking for a suggestion on thar as well.. Please suggest ecosport Or thar for long drive..
Never expect a smooth ride from a thar
Ecosport is a crossover, so it's obviously better for long drives
Okay when will this fast forward effects go away?? We wanna see the articulation of the thar..
Diesel automatic and manual top speed ?
Led headlights and reverse camera will make lot of difference.
Dear overdrive, a lot of overexposing off-road videos but please drive this above130kmph then review about confidence, wind noise etc no one does this
All reviews are unanimous in their view that the Thar cannot handle that kind of speed. Making me wonder y it needs that 2.2litre engine?! Might as well gone with their 1.5diesel mill from their xuv300.
There is a reason why nobody does this - the Thar is not designed for it and they are not stupid to think along those lines.
Yaa Show muscles like bodybuilders but can't run
@@Nobody-tk6fz If u r a Thar fan I don't mean to upset u. We r all united in our love for cars:). It's just that I thought that a Thar powered by the 1.5liter diesel engine from their xuv300 will be a far more sincere package. It after all produces an identical 30kgm torque as the 2.2liter diesel unit while at the same time knocking of a few lakhs in taxes. :)
1.5litre diesel mill driving the rear wheels & we would have booked 1 by now ;).
@@GbMuthu I have no issues with the point about different engines, they might still offer it as an option. I was replying to the post about test driving it at 130+ which is not only illegal but completely contrary to the basic design principles and purpose of the vehicle in question. It's like asking why a bicycle review did not include a test ride in the middle of an expressway.
5:37 Taken by surprise hearing all the praises regarding ride quality and steering precision. This is in contradiction to every other reviews who didn't speak great about the said characteristics. I understand this is a pure breed 4x4 and know what to expect. Just makes me more curious and wanting to do a TD and check it out myself.
Not much said about how good Petrol variant is????
Whys there is no review about petrol Manual
How will this stand against soon to be launched jimny?
It will get obliterated
Automatic or manual
Which one is good for offroading ?
Manual
The standard spec tires should have been used for off roading review.
Notice to Editor: Your background music is way too loud. Just check your King of the Hill Turbo Duster clip.
Technically convincing 😀
Mahindra has paid lot of youtubers handsome of money for the Thar promotion.. it really figured out for Mahindra as bulk of his subscribers had booked the car without even doing the test drive.. Thar itself is a brand no doubt about it .. But at this price point is really a ??. . There are better options available in the market at this price point with lot more features.
1000th like
13:20 we dont have bad roads in side our home
👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 Pls stop background music.
People are ready to pay..but...mahindra..needs..to..uptask..thar...comeon.. rear parking views, foldable automatically rooftop, adjustable comfoseats, good mileage. Looking at EV version, more ground clearance....mahindra should give indian more global quality to mark competition behind and they can.
morpheus of matrix is driving THAR!
Turbo petrol will be fun to tune. 230hp in a Thar? Count me in....
What is the exact onroad price for ax hard top version manual diesel
Real SUV..my pick will be petrol AT with hard top!
Why does this guy always look sleepy great review but i find him to look less fresh
13:25 People ride their cycles like this, on the way back home.
Kudos to mahindra..for bringing bigger engines within middle class range ..
I would still say.. they can bring 1.2P 130 ps for lil more fuel efficient..that may not be ideal for off roading but will be enough easy to run with
Their 1.2 petrol could be underpowered but not their 1.5 diesel from the xuv300 which produces an identical 30kgm torque. That engine on a RWD layout would be splendid for those of us battling it out in the urban jungle 😅. Moreover it is ridiculous to use a 2.2litre engine for a chassis that cannot handle speeds over 120kmph.
Why would someone want an automatic for off-roading . That’s no fun.
i want import to thailand
Fun thing is, nowadays here un EU we get electrified shitboxes that cost as much as a house, while the rest of the world gets real cars like this one.
7 inch screens seem small when most phones are almost 7 inches and few are larger than that too
You haven't mentioned the major cons with this vehicle....comfort for one. Both front and back seats are terrible. Glove box is good for a diaper only. Boot space good to keep back pack. That doesn't make it a family car. Steering is far from precise. Wonder if your test vehicle had a different set up.
It's overpriced..Atleast for same price they should hav provided armrest, rear ac vent, dead pedal n utilised side space in rear seats for LX version plus roof rails as an accessory... Basics!
Someone buy for me 😁
I have xuv 500 mahindra
i have gone through the review of @askcarguru as well, your and his review are in total contrast, you are praising its ride quality where as it is below average, i personally feel that yours is a paid review
The softop is basically for more civilized society .... Coz imagine you park your softop thar out side your home in a slummy congested residential area some idiot takes a chaaku and phaaassaaakk a tear on the softop plastic side sheet easilly stealble also...
Why can't our Indian manufacturers design a new steel wheel rims.....God damnit.... those white socks are.... somehow tractor type...
It's a Tank
Bekaar hyi mahindra..see and learn from BAIC they are launching their wrangler copy bj40 SUV in Pakistan which is a much poor country than india..bj40 is 100% more stylish than this dabba thar..still lot of mistakes in thar design front windshield is awkward and super flat from side angle non aero dynamic..dont buy thar investing 15 lakhs of rupees its still ugly in design and needs lot of improvements..if anyone sees BAIC bj40 off roader they wont buy Thar for sure.
10:56 that's not true
agree
Kiki challenge with a thar.. lol
Didn’t Mahindra have lawsuits with Jeep over this ? Looks so much like a Wrangler
That is the reason that Mahindra stopped selling thar in USA. Instead they sell Roxor, which is like a big ATV.
@@SuperImbadude they never sold the thar in the USA lmao what you smoking? It was always about the roxor.
@@mesosadohno6813 they couldn't because of this case. Roxor was out of need.
*Thar 2020- wrangler of poor*
