Mahindra Thar Roxx Price in India 2026

The Thar Roxx is powered by two robust engine options from Mahindra's stable. The 2.0L mStallion TGDi Petrol engine produces up to 177 PS and 380 Nm of torque, while the 2.2L mHawk Diesel engine delivers up to 175 PS and 400 Nm in its highest state of tune (4WD AT). Both engines are designed for a balance of highway cruising and high-torque off-road demands.

Power delivery varies across variants. The RWD Diesel manual starts at 152 PS, while the top-end 4WD Diesel and Petrol Automatic variants push the performance boundaries to 175-177 PS, making it one of the most powerful SUVs in its segment.

The diesel engine's peak torque of 400 Nm is available from as low as 1,750 rpm, ensuring the vehicle can crawl through rocky terrain or overtake effortlessly on the highway.

Both the mStallion and mHawk engines are inline 4-cylinder units, ensuring smoother power delivery and better refinement compared to 3-cylinder counterparts.

The engines utilize a Dual Overhead Camshaft (DOHC) setup with 4 valves per cylinder, optimizing airflow for better combustion efficiency and high-end performance.

The petrol engine features Gasoline Direct Injection (TGDi) for precise fuel metering, while the diesel uses a Common Rail Direct Injection (CRDi) system with a variable geometry turbocharger.

Despite its boxy aerodynamics and heavy kerb weight, the Thar Roxx Petrol AT can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in approximately 10.5 seconds.

The top speed is electronically limited to around 165 km/h for safety, given the vehicle's high center of gravity and off-road oriented chassis.

Mahindra offers a slick 6-speed manual or a refined 6-speed torque converter automatic sourced from Aisin, providing smooth shifts for city driving and reliable performance for off-roading.

The Roxx comes in Rear-Wheel Drive (RWD) for urban users and a sophisticated 4XPLOR 4WD system with Electronic Locking Differentials for serious off-roaders.

The manual variants use a heavy-duty single-plate dry clutch designed to handle the high torque output of the mHawk and mStallion engines.

The 5-door Roxx is significantly longer than the 3-door Thar, providing a more balanced stance and easier ingress/egress for rear passengers.

With a class-leading 226 mm ground clearance and a 650 mm water-wading capacity, the Roxx is built to conquer flooded streets and rocky trails alike.

Mahindra has prioritized safety by offering 6 airbags (Front, Side, and Curtain) as standard across all variants of the Thar Roxx.

The Thar Roxx is the first body-on-frame SUV to secure a 5-star rating from Bharat NCAP, scoring exceptionally high in both Adult and Child occupant protection.

The dash is dominated by a 10.25-inch HD touchscreen running Mahindra's Adrenox system, featuring wireless smartphone integration and Alexa built-in.

The Roxx introduces Level 2 ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) and CrawlSmart, which maintains a steady low speed during extreme off-roading without driver throttle input.
