Overview

• A Shivuz Garage video and fresh images show the updated 3-door Thar unloaded at a Mahindra dealer stockyard ahead of its debut.
• Inside, the SUV adopts Roxx-derived pieces including a new three-spoke steering wheel, a free-standing 10.2–10.25-inch touchscreen, a wireless charger, a front armrest and revised door trims, with Autocar also noting a switch to electric power steering.
• Exterior tweaks appear restrained with a revised grille under camouflage, a reprofiled bumper, a rear washer and wiper, a reverse camera and five matching alloy wheels including the spare, while some spotted units still carry reflector headlamps.
• Powertrains are expected to be carried over, with 2.0-litre petrol and 1.5- and 2.2-litre diesel engines offered with 6-speed manuals and torque-converter automatics on the petrol and 2.2 diesel.
• Several premium features seen on higher-end SUVs remain absent on the spotted cars, and a reported 3 October launch date is a single-outlet claim not confirmed by Mahindra.
