The all-new Mahindra Thar has been confirmed to be offered in two trims: AX (Adventure Series) and LX (Lifestyle Series). One of the most outstanding alterations of the new Thar against the outgoing model is the addition of the 2.0-litre mStalltion turbo gasoline burner and a 6-speed torque converter. The petrol motor can generate 150 PS against 320 Nm (MT) and 320 Nm (AT). Moreover, the new Thar is also powered by a 2.2-litre diesel unit which is good for 130 PS against 300 Nm. The transmission duties will be undertaken by a 6-speed MT as standard across all the variants and an optional torque converter only on the LX trim. A 4WD system will be standard on both the petrol and diesel versions.
