Mahindra Thar Monster Car

How the Mahindra Thar RWD fares in terms of off-road performance? Off-road capabilities in the Thar RWD still remain impressive and it handles challenging terrain with aplomb, something that a pseudo SUV will certainly not be up to. We subjected our review car to some mild off-roading over rocky terrain. With a BLD (Brake Locking Differential) equipped rear axle and ample torque at tickover, this 4×2 induces immense confidence. Vacuum assisted clutch lends it a lighter action at the pedal even though the travel is long, this coupled with the ample torque at tickover, make pottering around the city pretty comfortable. Where the Thar feels short geared is on the highways. The D117 will be spinning at around 2500rpm while you cruise at 100 kmph in 6th (A Venue CRDe 1.5ltr manages the same at 1750rpm ? just to put into perspective). A well-insulated cabin and a refined engine makes the Thar surprisingly silent at cruising speeds. A smaller engine with ample performance to boot, the RWD version returned us a respectable 14.5 kmpl with a mix of driving conditions, we saw this figure go up to 17.2 kmpl on highway only runs ? impressive!
