Surfing the sand and dune bashing with the Mahindra Thar Roxx!

The Mahindra Thar Roxx is one of the finest SUVs on offer from the Mahindra stable currently, and while we have waxed eloquent about the Roxx and its usability in the city and on the highway, we wanted to put the SUV through its paces in the rough and tumble world of off-roading. And to do that, we pointed the Thar Roxx towards the sand dunes of Rajasthan for a 4000km, week-long road trip which told us all about the all-round abilities of the SUV. And there’s a lot more to read in the latest issue of Engage.

Catch all this and more in the May 2025 issue of Engage! Order your copy here.
