Mahindra Thar Adventure Edition launched in India

Mahindra & Mahindra, India's leading SUV maker, has silently rolled out a special edition of its popular SUV, the Thar. Called the Adventure Edition, only 30 exclusive units of the vehicle will be made.

So what are the changes in the Thar Adventure Edition? For starters, owners get a new Java Brown colour with a unique Adventure body wrap. There are also head and tail lamp protectors along with a chaff screen. The wheel arches also have been given a more butch appearance. Inside the cabin, the new additions include a 2D map and compass, black and orange piping for the seats, moulded floor mats and new centre console.

As said above, the power comes from the potent 2.5-litre CRDe engine which churns a max power of 103bhp with peak torque of 247Nm. The engine is mated to five-speed manual gearbox. With the ground clearance of 200mm, the SUV glides effortlessly on the uneven path.

Though Mahindra has not revealed the prices, but seeing the extra features it packs, we assume the Adventure Edition is about Rs 30,000 to Rs 35,000 expensive than the standard model. The Delhi Ex-showroom price of CRDe model is Rs.7.37 Lac.
