Mahindra is now gearing up to bring the facelift avatar of the Thar in India. The 3-door SUV made its debut in the national market way back in 2020, and this is the first time that the Thar is getting an update. The test mule of the Mahindra Thar has been snapped testing recently, and suggests a few of the exterior elements expected from the facelift.

On the rear, the Thar facelift is expected to get a newly designed bumper and a new set of LED taillights. Though the front section of the camouflage Thar facelift was not revealed, it is likely to get a new pair of headlights as seen on the Thar Roxx.
