The new Mahindra Thar has a stiffer tubular ladder chassis, and its body shell is a mix of mild and advanced high-strength steel that is lighter, but rigid. Stabilizer bars in the front and back, as well as an integrated roll cage, offer torsional stiffness to the vehicle's frame.

Torque is now available at 1,600 rpm, and Toyota has enhanced airflow at higher engine speeds as well. The AT models now have a higher torque rating of 500Nm. It now takes just 11.2 seconds to reach 100 kilometres per hour, making it the fastest SUV in its class. Eco, Normal, and Sport are the three driving modes available now.
