Mahindra Thar Exterior and Interior Modifications
On the outside, the front end is the talking point of this Thar. The blacked-out vertically slated front grille gives the SUV a bold, rugged and old-school appearance. It accentuates the utilitarian aspect of the vehicle. This distinguishes itself from the pretty-looking front ends of regular vehicles. The bumpers are almost cut out from the sides to highlight the off-roading nature of the SUV. The fog lamps are fitted on the bumpers and the approach angle is widely enhanced by this bumper design.

Moving to the inside is where the real modifications are apparent. The red & black theme is visible throughout the cabin starting with the upholstery. To add to this, there are glossy black interior bits to complement this setup. The red accent is also covering the centre of the steering wheel while half of the steering wheel is cover with a glossy black insert. The area between the front seats has glossy black elements appealing to the eye. The armrests are also added to the front seat to increase the comfort quotient of the SUV. The interior door panels are also finished in glossy black material.
