Expert Review

4.52/5
The 2026 Mahindra Thar OG successfully modernizes the iconic 3-door SUV by incorporating key mechanical and technological advancements from the larger Thar Roxx while preserving its unmistakable off-road DNA. The cabin sees a marked upgrade in refinement and tech, featuring soft-touch Truffle Brown leatherette seats, a 10.25-inch touchscreen with wireless connectivity, a wireless charger, and enhanced safety options including standard 6 airbags and four-wheel disc brakes on higher trims. Available across an economical 1.5L Diesel RWD option alongside potent 2.2L Diesel and 2.0L Turbo-Petrol engine options with RWD and 4WD configurations, it maintains an accessible starting price point. However, it still compromises on practical everyday usability, constrained by tight rear-seat access, limited boot space, a firm ride over sharp road imperfections, and thirsty petrol variants.

The electronic locking diff and terrain modes effortlessly cleared deep mud tracks during our recent trip to the hills.

My wife and mother struggle immensely while wearing traditional Indian attire like sarees or suits.

The car looks phenomenal in black and the interior feels quite modern with the soft-touch materials and touchscreen display.

Getting into the back seat is an absolute nightmare. Flipping the front seat forward doesn't leave enough clearance, and you constantly bump your head or drag your shoes across the side steps.

Buying this as a family car was a huge mistake purely because of rear seat access. My elderly parents simply cannot squeeze through the narrow gap when folding the front passenger seat. Crawling into the back row requires athletic agility, making family outings a total headache.
