- Mahindra Thar is currently available with discounts till 3 Lakhs and short waiting period of up to 3 months.
Mahindra Thar has been one of the most popular SUVs in India since its introduction. The three-door lifestyle off-roader received a five-door version in the form of the Mahindra Thar Rocks a few months ago, but that didn't take away from the appeal of the three-door Thar. Since its launch, Thar has been in high demand, with barely any offers or discounts and the longest waiting period in the line-up. But, with the launch of the Thar Rocks, there have been some major changes in the marketing of its three-door sibling, which is actually making the deals better for consumers.
After significantly reducing the waiting period of Mahindra Thar, the domestic auto giant is now offering Discount of Rs 3 lakh on SUV. Interestingly, the amount can be increased further depending on the negotiation skills of the customer. Mahindra Thar Earth Edition, which was introduced as a special edition earlier this year, comes with maximum mileage.
Available in both 4×4 and 4×2 drivetrain layout options, the SUV is priced between 11.35 lakh more Rs 17.60 lakh (ex-showroom), the Mahindra Thar now has a waiting period of up to three months, which is significantly lower than before the launch of the Thar Rocks.

There is now a waiting period of up to three months on the 4×4 variants of the Mahindra Thar SUV. Available in both soft-top and hardtop options, the latter has a waiting period of up to three months for the petrol variant, while the diesel model comes with a waiting period of up to two months. The soft-top convertible variant commands a waiting period of up to three months for both petrol and diesel engine variants. There is a waiting period of up to two months for both petrol and diesel engine models of the Mahindra Thar 4×2 variant.
