5. Mahindra Thar 5-Door

Mahindra thar

Expected Starting Price: ₹16-18 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi)

The Mahindra Thar is a well-renowned name in the 4X4 segment in India and not only boasts an affordable price tag but also gets a capable and robust setup which makes it one of the best in the business. Despite this, the present three-door iteration may not be appreciated by all buyers because of its limited space inside the cabin and not-so-practical boot. 

The brand is working on launching the 5-door iteration of the Thar soon, which is likely to go on sale in early 2024. Underpinned by the same platform that is utilised in the Mahindra Scorpio N, the new Thar 5-door will directly lock horns with the Force Gurkha 5-door in India. As far as reports are to be believed, the new Thar 5-door will get a metal hardtop, electric sunroof, updated infotainment system, and more.

 Mahindra Thar 5-Door*
Engine2.0L Turbo Petrol, 2.2L Turbo Diesel
Maximum Power150 bhp, 130 bhp
Peak Torque300 Nm, 300 Nm
Transmission6-Speed MT, 6-Speed AT
