Thar Roxx 2025: Mahindra’s Boldest Off-Roader Yet: The Mahindra Thar has always been an iconic lifestyle SUV in India. Its rugged design, traditional Jeep-like styling and strong engines make it the choice of not only off-road lovers, but it has also been very popular among SUV enthusiasts driving in cities. In 2025, Mahindra has further enhanced this iconic model by launching the ‘Thar Rocks Edition’, which not only gives strong performance, but has also been designed keeping the new generation in mind with smart features and stylish looks.
New and attractive design at a glance
The first glimpse of the Thar Rocks 2025 tells that there is something new and special in it. Its design looks more sporty, youthful and bold than before. New dual-tone bumpers, ‘ROXX’ body decals, black-out grille give it a distinct identity from the regular Thar. The fender extensions and muscular wheel arches give it a muscular look, which looks great everywhere from city roads to rough roads.
Along with this, it has been given new all-terrain tires and re-designed alloy wheels which further improve the road presence. LED DRLs, projector headlamps and signature tail lights have been introduced in smoked finish, which gives the SUV a mature and slightly ‘mean’ look. Also, matte color options will attract the youth a lot.
It is equally smart and comfortable from inside
The interior of Thar Rocks 2025 comes with a modern touch. Although its ruggedness has been retained, the cabin now looks more premium and comfortable. Piano black inserts, soft-touch moldings and contrast stitching on the upholstery have been given on the dashboard.
The new seats come with better lumbar support and are made of premium fabric. The rear seats have also been slightly redesigned, improving legroom and recline angle – meaning even long journeys will now be more comfortable.
Apart from this, talking about smart features, it has a large touchscreen infotainment system that supports Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, voice commands and OTA updates. The cabin now gets a modern and functional design with multiple USB ports, wireless charging and climate control knobs.
Off-road capability – still unmatched
In its attempt to seduce urban customers, the Thar Rocks retains its off-road heritage. The next generation 2025 version maintains the same sturdy ladder-frame chassis with amazing performance on any kind of roads.
This SUV comes in 4×2 and in 4×4 versions. The 4×4 variant is equipped with the shift-on-fly feature and the low-range transfer case that does not pose an ordeal to even the most difficult roads.
Others such as ground clearance, water wading and the approach/departure angle remain the best in its classes. Whether, it is hilly or mud or sand or rocky roads, Thar Rocks never give up.
Speaking out about the suspension, the multi-link rear suspension and independent front suspension have been upgraded in order to offer greater stability and reduced body while in motion on the highway.
Safety and technology – to new heights
The new Mahindra Thar Rocks 2025 is offered with a better safety package. It comes as standard with dual front airbags, ABS and EBD, ESP and rollover protection as well as hill hold and hill descent controls. Other than this, it also receives a rear view camera, TPMS (tire pressure monitoring system), all passenger seat belt reminder system and International Organization of Standardization car seat mount known as ISOFIX, thus becoming a family-friendly SUV.
Two performance options – to suit your needs
The engine variants of Thar Rocks 2025 are the old but trusty one. It is powered with 2.0 liter mStallion turbo petrol, and a 2.2 liter mHawk diesel. The diesel engine generates about 130 bhp which is the same as the petrol engine but the diesel engine generates a torque of 300 Nm and the petrol engine a torque of 320 Nm.
All the engines are equipped with 6-speed manual and 6-speed automatic. The diesel variant offers better mileage in highways and it can be driven long distances whereas the petrol variant offers a smooth and entertaining drive in the urban areas.
Price and Value – Worth every penny
Even then, with all these upgraded features and updations, the cost of Thar Rocks 2025 has remained very affordable. Its ex-showroom price may start up at 15.49 lakhs. This is just a little bit more expensive than the regular model of Thar but giving the benefits and exclusivity, it is a good deal.
