The Mahindra Thar 5-door has been in development for more than two years now, making it one of the most anticipated SUVs to be launched this year. The test mule of the extended Thar has been spotted multiple times, revealing new exterior and interior details. This time, we've spotted the Thar 5-door, possibly in its lower-spec variant, from both inside and out.
What We Saw
Based on the spy shot, the dashboard of the Mahindra Thar 5-door appears to lack an infotainment system and instead features an analogue instrument cluster. This suggests that it could be one of the lower-spec variants of the Thar 5-door. Although this particular test mule of the SUV still retains a front armrest and steering-mounted controls, indicating it might be a lower-spec variant though not the base model.
