Re: Mahindra Thar : Official Review

This is brilliant. Goes to show Mahindra's seriousness about safety!

I honestly did not expect the Thar to get such a good safety rating.

Re: Mahindra Thar : Official Review

Brilliant effort by Mahindra for securing 4 stars for Thar. For a body on frame vehicle, this is a great result. Driver protection could have been little better, but all in all Kudos to Mahindra for delivering on another safer vehicle for India.

This comes in at a time the market leaders are only offering excuses for safety and Maruti is planning to not send any cars for testing.

Re: Mahindra Thar : Official Review

Quite a bit of happy news.
Global NCAP has tested the all-new Thar and it got 4-stars.

Happy are the owners who got their rides delivered, happier are the ones who are about to and happiest will be Mahindra.

Here's the fact sheet from GNCAP.

Re: Mahindra Thar gets 4 star safety rating by GNCAP

Kudos to Mahindra for this.

Even the Wrangler fares poorly in crash tests

Re: Mahindra Thar gets 4 star safety rating by GNCAP

Indeed remarkable for a ladder frame humble SUV. A very high score on child safety rating too, seems like the highest points for it in Indian context. Our home grown boys Mahindra and Tata are indeed walking the talk on safety. Kudos to them.

Hope the so called market leader and the ones just below the rung are listening and start to bend over backwards than just fighting it out on Twitter.

The full crash test report is here.

That's quite impressive ! The ratings are confidence inspiring and it looks like the highest ever for the child occupant protection ! Thumbs up Mahindra . Only Indian manufacturers cares about safety it seems.

Re: Mahindra Thar gets 4 star safety rating by GNCAP

Really heartening to see this news - kudos to Mahindra!

https://www.carandbike.com/news/excl...ome-topstories - story in NDTV Car & Bike.

An excerpt I couldn't avoid highlighting from the above article:

"Interestingly the only cars from India with 5 stars are the XUV 300, Tata Altroz and Nexon – meaning no global OEMs Indian operations have produced a 5 star car as yet in India. Other made-in India cars with a 4 star score have been the Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza, Tata Tiago/Tigor and Zest (and the Nexon in its first test), Toyota Etios Liva and Volkswagen Polo."

This also shows who are the prospective buyers in the TG of Mahindra for the Thar.

Since, those seats at the back are most suited to kids only.

Jokes apart to Mahindra for its efforts.

Hope they put similar efforts in bumping up the production capacity as well to cater to the demand.

Re: Mahindra Thar gets 4 star safety rating by GNCAP

Kudos to Mahindra for this. This is a body style which has typically fared very poorly in crash tests. To make it pass with flying colours is indeed a great achievement.

Re: Mahindra Thar gets 4 star safety rating by GNCAP

WOW! From the twitter pic itself you can see there is no buckling around the A-pillar unlike say, Scorpio in the past.

Mahindra can expect even more orders (and delays). Honestly never thought this coming from the Thar. I would now be extremely curious about Harrier's rating.

Re: Mahindra Thar gets 4 star safety rating by GNCAP

Mahindra (and Tata) have their heart in the right place. What remains to be seen is - how well they are able to position themselves in the heart and mind of the customers to capture incremental market share.

Specifically for Thar, seems they have pulled all the right strings and the market will continue to reward this beast. Kudos to Mahindra for overhauling their game in response to Tata. A great example of how healthy competition can lead to better products.

Lastly, to those manufacturers who should not be named - This is how you do it! Undoubtedly Indian manufacturers can learn a lot from you on refinement, interiors and bling. But you in return have a lot to catchup on when it comes to building safe products.

Re: Mahindra Thar gets 4 star safety rating by GNCAP

Commendable job my Mahindra on Thar considering the fact that this is Body On Frame vehicle. Way to go Mahindra! You guys are setting benchmarks! Thanks for providing us a off roader with stable structure. Hope others will follow.
