Mahindra Thar EV – New Generation, New Power
Mahindra is preparing to electrify its iconic off-roader with the upcoming Thar EV, a model designed to combine rugged performance with clean mobility. This EV version aims to keep the Thar’s adventurous DNA alive while adding futuristic tech and silent electric torque.
Design: More Futuristic, More Rugged
Mahindra Thar EV is expected to carry a bold new design language inspired by the Thar.e concept.
Key design highlights include:
- Strong, squared-out body panels
- LED matrix headlamps
- Upright stance with wider wheel arches
- New EV-specific front fascia
- Massive tyres for all-terrain grip
The electric Thar looks more muscular and modern while staying true to its SUV roots.
Battery & Range (Expected)
Mahindra is reportedly developing a large battery pack for heavy off-road usage.
Estimated specs (industry expectations):
- Battery: 60–80 kWh
- Range: 350–450 km on a single charge
- Charging: DC fast charging support (20–80% in ~35 minutes)

The instant torque of an electric motor will be a major advantage for off-road lovers.

- 12.3-inch touchscreen
- Digital driver display
- Panoramic sunroof
- ADAS Level 2 features
- Wireless Android Auto/CarPlay

- Terrain modes (Rock, Mud, Sand, Snow)
The Thar EV aims to be more premium and tech-loaded than the current generation.

- 360° camera
- Traction control
- Hill descent control
- Steel safety shell
- ADAS features (auto braking, lane assist)
Launch Date & Expected Price
Industry insiders expect the Mahindra Thar EV launch in late 2025 or early 2026.
Expected price: ₹19.50 lakh – ₹25.50 lakh (ex-showroom)
Conclusion
Mahindra Thar EV will be a game-changer for the Indian off-road segment. With new technology, powerful electric performance, and futuristic design, it promises to attract both adventure lovers and EV fans.
