What the LXT Diesel AWD MT costs on the road
The price above is ex-showroom. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the LXT Diesel AWD MT comes to ₹17,55,958 on the road in Itanagar and ₹20,01,272 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹2,45,314 of what you pay for the identical car. Of the 25 states we can price this variant in, Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest and Karnataka highest. You pay it where you live, so take this as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as a way to save money.
Comprehensive own-damage cover is on top of both figures: it has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer, the cover value and your no-claim bonus, so no honest single number exists for it. Budget for it from real quotes.

The full story
At ₹16.43L ex-showroom Delhi this is the seventh of 15 Thar OG variants by price, ₹34,000 above the ZXT Turbo Petrol RWD AT. The same LXT kit starts at ₹3.44L less as the LXT Diesel RWD MT; the extra here buys the Diesel with the 6-speed manual. Worth a hard look before you sign: the cheapest ZXT actually costs ₹2.44L less than this variant and buys airbags (6 against 2) and all-wheel disc brakes among 7 additions. That price is a different engine or gearbox though: keeping the Diesel with the 6-speed manual, the ZXT starts at ₹17.49L.
More about the LXT trim
The Thar most people mean: 10.25in touchscreen, reverse camera, cruise and 18in alloys, with every engine and the 4WD hardware on offer. Hard top only since the convertible was dropped in April 2025.
