Internal Competition: Thar Roxx vs Scorpio N and 3-Door Thar

Mahindra’s strategic pricing for the Thar Roxx creates competition with its models, including the 3-door Thar, priced between ₹11.35 lakh and ₹17.60 lakh, and the Scorpio N at ₹13.85 lakhs to ₹24.54 lakh. While the Scorpio N is marketed as a premium SUV, the Thar Roxx boasts superior ride quality, thanks to its wider track.

Taking on the Mid-Size SUV Segment

Thar Roxx doesn’t just compete within Mahindra’s lineup. It also stands strong against Mid-Size SUVs like the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, and Honda Elevate. Niche off-roaders like the Force Gurkha and Maruti Jimmny also enter the fray, but the Roxx holds its own with its rugged capabilities.
