Mahindra Thar Roxx power and torque explained
The Thar Roxx gives you four engines to pick from. Two are 2.0 litre mStallion turbo petrols, making 162 PS or 176 PS. Two are 2.2 litre mHawk turbo diesels, making 152 PS or 174 PS.
The petrols love to rev high and stay smooth up top. The diesels do their best work low down and feel calmer for it.
How to read this chart. Torque is the push you feel when you accelerate, and it peaks low on the rev range. Power is how hard the engine keeps pulling as it revs higher, and it peaks further up. The two dots mark those peaks. The shaded strip between them is the flexibility band: a wider band pulls easily across more revs and feels relaxed in traffic, while a narrower band asks you to rev the engine more to get its best. Use the buttons above to compare this car's engines.
Peak figures come from the 2.2L mHawk Turbo Diesel spec sheet. The line between the two peaks is not a measured dyno curve.
The 152 PS diesel is the easy going one. Its 330 Nm of torque arrives at just 1500 rpm and holds to 3000 rpm. Power tops out early at 3750 rpm, and the gap between the two peaks runs to 2250 rpm. So it pulls strongly from low revs, happy crawling through city traffic with the family aboard. Pick it if your days are mostly town runs and low costs matter, where how far it goes on a litre of diesel really counts.
The 162 PS petrol shares that same 330 Nm of torque, again from 1500 to 3000 rpm. But it revs much higher, with peak power at 5000 rpm. That gives it the widest span here between the two peaks, at 3500 rpm. It stays smooth and quiet as the revs climb, unlike the diesels. Choose it if you want that early pull with a calmer petrol feel across city and highway.
The 174 PS diesel is the muscle of the range. It makes the most torque of the four, a big 400 Nm held from 1750 to 2750 rpm. Power peaks at 3500 rpm, and the span between the peaks is the tightest at 1750 rpm. So you keep it in that meaty zone with the gearbox. This is the engine for steep off-road climbs, a fully loaded boot, or towing, and it has the grunt for firm highway overtakes too.
The 176 PS petrol is the most powerful engine in the Thar Roxx. It pairs 380 Nm of torque, held from 1750 to 3000 rpm, with peak power up at 5000 rpm. Its span between the peaks is wide at 3250 rpm, so it stays eager high up and rewards revving. This is the pick for the keen driver who wants the sharpest acceleration on the highway. It is worth lining all four engines up across the trims before you decide.
