AXT, LXT and ZXT trims
Thar OG trims run in an AXT, LXT and ZXT order. The AXT rear-drive diesel manual at ₹10.32 Lakh is the affordable way in, using the smaller 1.5 litre engine. The LXT adds comfort and the bigger engine options. The ZXT trims sit on top, with the fullest kit including the new LED lamps and larger alloys. The ZXT 4WD diesel automatic caps the range at ₹18.99 Lakh.
Which engine and drivetrain
The entry 1.5 litre diesel is rear-wheel drive only, for buyers who want the Thar look at the lowest price. The 2.0 litre turbo petrol and 2.2 litre diesel unlock four-wheel drive for real trail use. If you actually go off-road, one of the 4WD trims is the honest choice. City-only buyers can save with a rear-drive version. Line up prices across the range once you have picked.
Manual or automatic on the Thar
Higher trims offer a six-speed automatic alongside the manual, on both petrol and diesel. The automatic eases city and highway driving in a heavy off-roader. Purists often keep the manual for control on rocks and slopes. Think about how much real off-roading you will do before choosing.
