Mahindra Thar OG launched at Rs 10.32 lakh
Mahindra Thar OG has been launched in India with prices starting at Rs 10.32 lakh (ex-showroom). The update brings a new OG suffix to the three-door Thar, along with changes to the platform, suspension, steering, engines, styling and safety equipment.
What is new on the Thar OG
The Thar OG is the second update to the Thar three-door in just over a year. Mahindra has moved the SUV to a new-generation platform and revised the suspension and steering, while also offering more powerful engine options than the outgoing model.
The exterior has also been refreshed, giving the Thar OG a revised look without changing the basic three-door SUV concept. For buyers considering a Thar this month, the OG name is the key change to look for when comparing it with the outgoing version.
Mahindra Thar OG safety features
Safety equipment has also been updated on the Mahindra Thar OG. The available features include:
- Six airbags
- All-wheel disc brakes
- ESP with roll-over mitigation
- Refreshed safety equipment over the outgoing model
These additions give the updated Thar a broader set of active and passive safety features than the model it replaces. The exact availability of individual features can vary by variant, so buyers should check the equipment list before booking.
Thar OG price and buyer details
Mahindra has priced the Thar OG from Rs 10.32 lakh ex-showroom. This makes the starting price an important point for buyers looking at the three-door Thar, especially if they are comparing the updated model with the outgoing SUV.
The launch also means buyers now have an updated version with the new platform, revised chassis-related hardware and refreshed styling to consider. More details on the variant-wise equipment should be checked before making a final purchase decision.
Should you consider the Thar OG now?
For anyone planning to buy the Mahindra three-door Thar, the OG is the newly launched version to compare against the outgoing model. Would you choose the updated Thar OG over the older version?

TT Score
A strong lifestyle SUV value with broad petrol/diesel and RWD/4WD choice, but its 3-door, 4-seat layout limits everyday practicality.
Who it suits
- Off-road enthusiast — The range includes 4WD variants with both petrol and diesel engines, giving buyers genuine drivetrain choice for rough-road use.
- Budget-conscious SUV buyer — The entry price is ₹10.32 lakh ex-showroom, with an estimated on-road cost of about ₹11.56–₹12.28 lakh across the listed states.
- Diesel highway user — The 1.5-litre diesel manual has a reported 14.6 kmpl owner-reported mileage figure, supporting lower fuel use than the petrol alternatives.
- Lifestyle-focused buyer — The 3-door, 4-seat configuration prioritises the Thar's lifestyle format over carrying capacity, while owner ratings are consistently strong across large samples.
Worth knowing
- · The 3-door, 4-seat layout can restrict rear-seat access and everyday family practicality.
- · Petrol and diesel variants span a wide ₹10.32 lakh–₹18.99 lakh ex-showroom range, so higher-spec 4WD versions can cost substantially more.
- · Fuel economy is not uniformly strong across the range; the available owner-reported diesel figure is 14.6 kmpl, while petrol efficiency is not specified here.
