Mahindra is gearing up to launch the 5-door Thar in India in 2024. While we’ve enough details about its exterior design, we finally get a sneak peek at its dashboard layout undisguised.
Going by the leaks, the 5-door Thar will feature a dual-tone black-and-brown colour scheme instead of the existing Thar’s all-black theme. The SUV is also expected to feature a larger infotainment system, possibly a 10-inch unit with a new user interface and more features. However, the air-con vents, HVAC controls, and the row of toggle switches at the bottom will remain unchanged.

Mahindra will offer the extended Thar only in the fixed-type metal hardtop roof guise.
Engine Options
Underneath the hood, the extended Mahindra Thar is expected to retain the ongoing 2-litre turbo-petrol and 2.2-litre turbo-diesel engines, paired with 6-speed manual and automatic transmission options. It will also be offered with an optional 4WD.
