Mahindra has been able to gain a formidable lead over other brands in the SUV department. Although its models such as The Xuv 700 as well as the 3- door Thar have been clocking regular sales, the brand has been aware of their ageing looks. To ensure that the vehicles continue to be the preferred choice of users, the brand is now in the pursuit of giving the Xuv 700 as well as the Three Door Thar a facelift. Since Mahindra has already launched a 5 door version of the vehicle the new design cues would be similar to the ones seen on the Thar Roxx.
Mahindra Thar 3-Door – New Possible Changes
Since the Three-door version is older than that of the 5 door version it’s possible that it might borrow some changes from the existing five-door Thar Roxx. It’s possible that the new Thar might be given a fresh new front fascia with LED headlamps as well as a new Bumper Design. It’s possible that Mahindra might give the car new styling accents that would include new rims, interior upholstery as well as other changes as well. Both the front as well as the rear bumper would be given a re-design with new daytime Running LED’s.
Beyond that, Mahindra would have to offer the car with extensive new safety features such as new ADAS level 2 features. These would further add to the overall safety of the vehicle and help it attain a 5 star safety rating in India. It’s possible that the new changes added to the car are similar to those we have already seen on the 5 door Thar Roxx.
Mahindra Xuv 700 Facelift
The Xuv 700 is duly up for an update, It’s possible that the new car might be given a sharper profile and might get a new LED daytime running light setup that runs along the front fascia. The car might borrow considerable design elements from the Mahindra Xev 9e as well as the Mahindra BE 6. Beyond the current array of features that are offered on the Xuv 700, the car might be offered with a range of new features as well. Beyond that Mahindra might add new Level 2 ADAS features fir better overall safety.
Powertrain Options
The powertrain options would be carried over from the previous generation models, a 2.0 litre Turbo Petrol Engine that generates about 197 HP and a peak Torque of 380 Nm. Transmission options would include a 6-speed manual transmission as well as a 6 speed automatic transmission as well. The Diesel if continued to be on sale would be powered by a diesel 2.0 litre Turbo unit, the engine would be offered in two state of tune a 153Hp/ 360Nm version as well as a 182 HP, with a peak torque figure of 420 NM while the higher end Automatic version would be equipped with a 450NM 6 speed automatic transmission, as reported By Autocar.
