Mahindra Thar has been one of the most popular SUVs in India for a long time. The current iteration of the three-door lifestyle SUV was launched in 2020. High demand for the SUV has propelled the waiting period stretching to more than a year for some of its variants in the past. However, with a ramped-up production as well as higher average monthly deliveries, the homegrown SUV manufacturer has now reduced the waiting period of Mahindra Thar to less than three months. Interestingly, this comes just a few months after the launch of Mahindra Thar Roxx, which is the more practical and five-door iteration of the lifestyle off-roader.
