The 2020 Mahindra Thar is expected to be showcased at the Auto Expo 2020 followed by a launch soon after. A hard-top version of the Thar was recently spotted, suggesting that it will be offered straight from the factory for the first time. Now, some more spy shots have surfaced online revealing interesting details of the Mahindra SUV.

The 2020 Mahindra Thar test mule was seen with a four-spoke steering wheel that gets integrated controls, a floating touchscreen infotainment system, and power window controls placed below the 4x4 gear lever.

Furthermore, it was also spotted with automatic climate control, new fabric seats with hand-stitched lining, a new gear shifter, silver accents around the air-con vents, and a new folding key fob. In terms of safety, it will get disc brakes on all four wheels, multiple airbags, rear parking sensors, seatbelt reminder, and speed alert system.

Mahindra is expected to offer the new-gen Thar with a petrol engine along with an automatic transmission as well as a 6-speed manual gearbox. It is also expected to come with a new 2.0-litre diesel engine that could also feature on the new-gen Scorpio and XUV500. Like its current iteration, the 2020 Mahindra Thar will continue to get the 4x4 drivetrain.

The 2020 Mahindra Thar will be more premium than the outgoing model owing to the new feature additions, factory-fitted hard top, a plusher cabin, and new BS6 petrol and diesel engines. It is expected to command a premium over the current-gen Thar which is priced between Rs 9.59 lakh and Rs 9.99 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).
