The images revealed by Mahindra today confirm the details we'd seen when the Thar 5-door was spied undisguised. The Thar Roxx lifestyle SUV will have a new double-stacked six slots, instead of the seven-slot design of the 3-door Thar. The circular headlamps remain, but it will get an LED projector setup with C-shaped DRLs.

It will be equipped with dual 10.25-inch displays, a panoramic sunroof, a 360-degree camera, LED lighting all around, diamond-cut alloy wheels and ADAS.

The Thar Roxx will get three engine options: a 1.5-litre diesel, a 2.2-litre diesel and a 2.0-litre petrol, with manual and automatic gearboxes to choose from. Just like the 3-door, the Roxx will also get rear-wheel-drive and 4WD.

Production of the Thar 5-door has commenced before its launch on August 15, and unofficial bookings have started at the dealer level. Upon arrival, the Thar 5-door will sit above the Thar 3-door in Mahindra’s portfolio. It will rival the Force Gurkha 5-door and the Maruti Jimny, and could be priced from around Rs 15 lakh (ex-showroom) onwards. It will also compete with midsize SUVs like the Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos, among others.
