- Mahindra has issued a revised price list for the 2020 Mahindra Thar.
- It will only be applicable to the customers who booked the Thar between 1st December to 8th January.
- The company has already shelved the AX Standard and AX variant.
Also, as per the latest report, Mahindra has discontinued the AX Standard and AX variant. One of the major reason behind the discontinuation could be the side facing seats. Recently, the 2020 Mahindra Thar scored a 4-star rating at the GNCAP for the front-facing back seat variant. Well, the side-facing back seats could have been a major hurdle with the safety norms and hence those variants were shelved off.
