We got to drive Thar diesel manual base AX variant which did not include roll cage, brake lock differential, cruise control and lot more..
My Observation after test driving Thar 2020
- The capability and comfort are leaps and bounds ahead of previous gen Thar.
- Good to know that they are providing Ceat CZAR All-Terrain Tyres in stock form.
- Looks like fitting 35" tyres are bolt on, lets wait and watch.
- There is one flaw which we found - the radiator is placed way lower than the previous gen Thar. This should be rectified with bigger tyres I guess.
- Even though ABS and EBD come as standard for all variants it locked the wheels while braking in a slope.
- Coil spring setup is a bonus for offroaders.
- Surprisingly water did not seep in while water wading, Unlike previous gen Thars.
- Mahindra should have also released the 5 door version of the Thar, they could have seen bookings greater than 9000.
- Thar is a serious competitor not just for Force Gurkha but Wrangler as well. People who want to buy the Wrangler will definitely give the Thar a second thought.
- Gears are so easy to shift, be it low range or higher one.
- Thar could clear all the obstacles of dirty drivez track in stock form itself.
- There is a lot of mod potential is what I hear from a veteran.
