Mahindra Thar Roxx base model price 

The Mahindra Thar Roxx price for the MX1 variant with a petrol engine is Rs 12.99 lakh, while the same base variant with a diesel engine is priced at Rs 13.99 lakh. This creates a price gap of Rs 1 lakh between the two engine configurations in the base variant.

The Mahindra Thar Roxx exterior grabs attention with its larger body build compared to the three-door Thar. Exterior highlights of the Thar Roxx MX1 include LED projector headlamps, LED turn indicators on the fender, a Wrangler-styled grille, and plain plastic bumpers. At the rear, it features a split tailgate with plastic elements at the bottom, and you won’t find any chrome or glossy finishes.

Mahindra Thar Roxx base interior

Focusing on the Mahindra Thar Roxx MX1 interior, there is no soft-touch material around the dashboard. However, it does include the essential amenities that make the interior suitable for the buyers. As for the interior shades, the Mahindra Thar Roxx in the base variant is currently available in ivory white. There have been reports that this shade might be discontinued soon, as a new shade, Mocha Grey, has started arriving at dealerships. The ivory white shade has received mixed reactions from buyers, particularly due to concerns about it getting dirty easily.
