Introduction: Bigger, Bolder, Better
The Mahindra Thar Roxx 5-Door is set to redefine the off-road SUV segment in India. Building on the massive success of the 3-door Thar, this new version brings added practicality without compromising on ruggedness. With more space, new features, and a design refresh, the Thar Roxx 5-Door is ready to attract adventure lovers and families alike.
Design: Muscular Yet Modern
The Thar Roxx 5-Door carries forward the iconic boxy silhouette, now stretched for better cabin space. It features updated LED headlamps, new alloy wheels, and blacked-out elements that give it a more premium yet aggressive appeal. The wider stance and longer wheelbase give it a commanding road presence, making it stand out both in the city and on trails.
Interior: Space Meets Comfort
Inside, the Thar Roxx 5-Door offers a much more comfortable experience than its predecessor. With more legroom and a proper second row of seats, it can now comfortably seat five adults. The cabin comes equipped with a larger touchscreen infotainment system, wireless Android Auto & Apple CarPlay, a new digital instrument cluster, and improved dashboard materials for a more refined feel.
Performance: Tough As Ever
The Thar Roxx 5-Door is expected to carry forward the same 2.0L turbo-petrol and 2.2L diesel engines seen in the 3-door variant. Both engines will come with 6-speed manual and automatic transmission options. The 4×4 capability, low-range gearbox, and mechanical locking differential ensure it remains a true off-road beast. Enhanced suspension tuning and better wheel articulation give it an edge on rocky terrains.
Safety and Features: Ready for the Urban Jungle
Mahindra has added more safety features to the Thar Roxx 5-Door, including six airbags, electronic stability control, rear parking sensors, ISOFIX mounts, and a high-strength steel body shell. Comfort features like automatic climate control, push-button start, keyless entry, and cruise control bring urban usability to this rugged SUV.
Expected Launch and Pricing
The Thar Roxx 5-Door is expected to launch in late 2025, with a starting price of around ₹15 lakh (ex-showroom). It will likely be offered in multiple variants, including both 4×2 and 4×4 configurations, to cater to a wider audience.
Conclusion: An SUV That Does It All
The Mahindra Thar Roxx 5-Door is more than just an extended Thar — it’s a perfect blend of off-road power and daily drive practicality. With its bold design, advanced features, and unmatched off-road DNA, it’s expected to become a game-changer in the lifestyle SUV market in India.
