Which SUV To Buy?
Both the Tata Curvv and the Mahindra Thar Roxx have made waves since their recent market introduction, each appealing to distinct buyer segments despite their overlapping price ranges.
The Mahindra Thar Roxx, an extended version of the iconic Thar, offers a host of urban-friendly features and a slightly more refined ride compared to its 3-door model. However, it still struggles with ride comfort, and its tall stance can be challenging for older passengers. On the plus side, it provides excellent headroom and cabin space, and the airy feel is enhanced by the panoramic sunroof and white seats. True to its heritage, the Thar Roxx remains a formidable off-roader with RWD or 4WD options and advanced off-road tech.
On the other hand, the Tata Curvv dazzles with its fresh SUV-coupe design, a rarity in the Indian market that is sure to turn heads. Inside, it boasts premium and modern technology and an upmarket cabin, aiming to offer a comfortable and welcoming experience for a wide range of buyers. The Curvv is also anticipated to score well in NCAP crash tests, aligning with Tata’s reputation for safety.
In essence, the Tata Curvv excels in versatility and modern appeal, while the Mahindra Thar Roxx, despite some comfort compromises (mainly due to the poor ride quality), is your only choice here if you want to go off-road.
