I am planning to buy Thar Roxx but I faced issue with its suspension during its test ride. Should I wait for the suspension issue to be fixed in the facelift?
Yes, if the ride of the current Thar Roxx is not something you can live with it would be better to wait for the update as the car is expected to get the same frequency selective damping setup from the Thar OG - what Mahindra markets as Davinci suspension. However while this is expected to improve the ride quality and body control it would be unlikely that it would match the level of the Hyundai Creta that you are used to. So in any case if you can wait, we would suggest you do so.
I am planning to buy the Thar Roxx Star Edition but test mules are dissatisfied with the new suspension setup. I already have a car and this would be my second purchase so I am in no hurry or there is not time constraint as of now. Therefore, I am ready to wait for a while. What do you recommend? Should I buy it now or wait?
Since you don't have an urgent need for a car, we would recommend you to wait for the Roxx with the new suspension. We tested it along with the 3-door Thar OG and it is significantly different and has improved the ride comfort along with the handling too. The Roxx suspension is good over bad roads, but it still feels bouncy on the highway and the new suspension might just fix that issue making it a lot better. Our suggestion would be to wait for the update.
I currently own a 2025 Maruti Suzuki WagonR ZXi manual and am planning to move to my village, which is around 60 km from Vadodara. I need a 4WD vehicle, as I also want to do some off-roading. I am confused between the Force Gurkha and the Mahindra Thar 4x4. Which one would you recommend? I believe sales of the Gurkha have almost come to a standstill. Is Force Motors planning to launch an updated version of the Gurkha in the near future?
Go for the Mahindra Thar 4x4. The Thar is the better all-round choice for your needs. It is a genuinely capable off-roader, but it is also far more practical and comfortable to live with on a daily basis. The updated suspension on the Thar OG makes it more comfortable, while the move to electric power steering has also enhanced ease of use. The Thar also has a much stronger ownership ecosystem, better service reach and far greater long-term support. The Force Gurkha is a hardcore off-roader but feels cruder in just about every way. Also, the Gurkha is a niche product with limited sales, and will not get you the same aftersales support. Force Motors has not officially announced any major Gurkha update in the near future. Given your 60km commute and the need for a reliable 4x4 that can handle both village roads and off-road trails, the Thar OG strikes the right balance between capability and everyday usability.
