Exploring the Upcoming Mahindra Thar 5-Door: A Blend of Luxury, Space, and Practicality

The Mahindra Thar 5-door is an upcoming, more luxurious and practical version of the current Thar. It's designed for families who want more space and features. 

Set to launch in late 2024, this new model has been spotted in test drives and is expected to include several upgrades over the 3-door version.

Here's what's new in the Mahindra Thar 5-door:

Larger Touchscreen Infotainment System: The car will have a 10.25-inch touchscreen for the infotainment system, similar to the one in the XUV400. It will have the latest software and support for updates.

• Digital Display for the Driver: The higher models will feature a large 10.25-inch digital display for the driver, while the basic models will have analog dials with a larger information display.

• Dash Cam: High-end versions will include a dash cam with front and rear recording.

• Front Armrests: Both the driver and the front passenger will have individual armrests for extra comfort.

• Seating Arrangement: The car might offer two individual rear seats or a bench seat for three people.

• Rear Seat Features: Rear passengers will enjoy dedicated air conditioning vents and a centre armrest if they opt for the bench seat.

• Sunroof: A powered sunroof will be available in the top models.

The Thar 5-door will also be more spacious inside, thanks to a longer wheelbase. It will have more room for luggage and additional storage spaces. The interior will use higher-quality materials for a more premium feel.

In terms of performance, the 5-door Thar will share its 2.0-liter turbo-petrol and 2.2-liter turbo-diesel engines with the 3-door model, along with the gearbox options and off-road features. However, there will be some adjustments to the suspension in the 5-door model. Mahindra plans to start production by June and aims to produce about 4,000 units per month of this model, which might be named the Thar Armada.
