Mahindra Thar 5-door spied with a larger touchscreen

Mahindra currently offers a 7-inch touchscreen head unit in the Thar 3-door.

Mahindra will be positioning the Thar 5-door as a more practical family SUV. Therefore, we can expect it to pack several features and creature comforts. The latest spy images suggest that the 5-door version could get a larger touchscreen infotainment system.
