Engine Displacement: 1,997 cc (Petrol) / 2,184 cc (Diesel)
The Thar Roxx is powered by two robust engine options from Mahindra's stable. The 2.0L mStallion TGDi Petrol engine produces up to 177 PS and 380 Nm of torque, while the 2.2L mHawk Diesel engine delivers up to 175 PS and 400 Nm in its highest state of tune (4WD AT). Both engines are designed for a balance of highway cruising and high-torque off-road demands.
Max Power: 177 PS (Petrol) / 175 PS (Diesel)
Power delivery varies across variants. The RWD Diesel manual starts at 152 PS, while the top-end 4WD Diesel and Petrol Automatic variants push the performance boundaries to 175-177 PS, making it one of the most powerful SUVs in its segment.
Max Torque: 380 Nm (Petrol) / 400 Nm (Diesel)
The diesel engine's peak torque of 400 Nm is available from as low as 1,750 rpm, ensuring the vehicle can crawl through rocky terrain or overtake effortlessly on the highway.
No. of Cylinders: 4
Both the mStallion and mHawk engines are inline 4-cylinder units, ensuring smoother power delivery and better refinement compared to 3-cylinder counterparts.
Valve Train: DOHC
The engines utilize a Dual Overhead Camshaft (DOHC) setup with 4 valves per cylinder, optimizing airflow for better combustion efficiency and high-end performance.
Fuel System: GDI (Petrol) / CRDi (Diesel)
The petrol engine features Gasoline Direct Injection (TGDi) for precise fuel metering, while the diesel uses a Common Rail Direct Injection (CRDi) system with a variable geometry turbocharger.
0-100 km/h: ~10.5 Seconds
Despite its boxy aerodynamics and heavy kerb weight, the Thar Roxx Petrol AT can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in approximately 10.5 seconds.
Top Speed: 165 km/h
The top speed is electronically limited to around 165 km/h for safety, given the vehicle's high center of gravity and off-road oriented chassis.
