Mahindra Thar Roxx Waiting Period Expected to Drop As Production Ramps Up

Mahindra has officially announced that it will ramp up production of its much-loved SUV, the Thar Roxx, to enable faster deliveries. This move is expected to reduce waiting periods, as the model has received strong demand since its launch. The Thar Roxx is more than just a five-door version of the Thar with enhanced family-friendly appeal. It offers more features than its standard three-door counterpart, including a larger boot and premium additions like a panoramic sunroof. Alongside extra doors, the Thar Roxx adds C-shaped LED DRLs, a revamped grille, and 19-inch dual-tone alloy wheels.

The 5-door iteration of the Thar is offered in seven paint options: Stealth Black, Tango Red, Everest White, Deep Forest, Nebula Blue, Battleship Grey, and Burnt Sienna, all of which can be paired with a black roof that adds a rugged look. While the familiar boxy silhouette is retained, Mahindra has added several distinctive elements, including a body-coloured six-slat grille.
