GaadiWaadi -Mahindra has pulled the plugs on the top-spec convertible variants of the Thar along with AX 4WD trims and LX open differential trimsMahindra & Mahindra is currently selling both Thar 3-Door and Thar Roxx in the Indian market. After the launch of the Thar Roxx, which offers proper 5-door setup and added practicality, the regular Thar has taken the back seat. In the latest development, the company has rejigged the SUV’s variant line-up, discontinuing a total of 8 variants.
This variant reshuffle can be an attempt to concentrate the Thar range and streamline the production by pulling the plugs on the low selling trims.Before this variant rejig, a total of 19 variants were on offer, and now, the count is reduced to just 11 variants. The top-spec LX convertible trims, AX 4WD trims and LX 4WD trims with an open differential have been discontinued.
Among these discontinued variants, only two are for the petrol powertrain, while the remaining six are for the diesel engine option. It is also important to note that only 4WD trims are affected by this reshuffle, and the RWD line-up remains unchanged.Apart from the AX(O) 1.
5-litre diesel RWD hard top variant, there’s no entry-level AX trim on offer in the Thar line-up. Despite playing around with the variants, Mahindra has not made any changes to the pricing of the Thar. This means that the SUV continues to be priced in the range of Rs.
11.50 lakh to Rs. 17.
60 lakh (ex-showroom). The current top-spec variant of the Thar range is the 2.2-litre diesel LX AT Earth Edition 4WD.
