The AXT 1.5L diesel rear-wheel-drive (RWD) version continues to start at \u20b99.99 lakh (ex-showroom), making it one of the most accessible options in the off-road SUV segment. This pricing strategy ensures the Thar remains attractive to entry-level buyers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Biggest Price Jump for Top Variants<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The most significant <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rushlane.com\/mahindra-thar-price-hike-april-2026-up-to-rs-43500-old-vs-new-price-table-12544018.html\">increase <\/a>has been seen in the higher-end LXT variants. The top-spec 2.2L diesel 4WD automatic variant now costs \u20b917.62 lakh, up by \u20b943,500. Other variants have also witnessed hikes ranging from \u20b930,500 to \u20b941,500, depending on engine and drivetrain combinations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Variant-Wise Impact<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Interestingly, Mahindra has largely shielded the base trims from price changes while revising only the LXT variants. For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>LXT 1.5L diesel RWD MT: up by \u20b930,500<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>LXT 2.0L petrol 4WD AT: up by \u20b941,500<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>LXT 2.2L diesel 4WD MT: up by \u20b939,500<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This selective pricing approach indicates a focus on maintaining affordability at the entry level while optimizing margins on premium variants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Facelift Launch Around the Corner<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The price hike comes at a time when Mahindra is preparing to launch a facelifted version of the Thar. Spy shots suggest updates like LED headlights, new DRLs, redesigned bumpers, and interior upgrades such as a larger infotainment system and ventilated seats. The upcoming launch could further push prices upward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What This Means for Buyers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For prospective buyers, the Thar remains a strong choice in the lifestyle SUV segment despite the price increase. However, with consecutive hikes in a short period, customers may consider booking sooner rather than later\u2014especially before the facelift arrives, which could bring additional price revisions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mahindra has increased the prices of its popular lifestyle SUV, the Mahindra Thar, for the second time in 2026.
