What the AX3L Diesel MT costs on the road
The price above is ex-showroom. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the AX3L Diesel MT comes to ₹18,45,208 on the road in Itanagar and ₹21,03,162 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹2,57,954 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 ₹17.28L ex-showroom this is the seventh of 21 Thar Roxx variants by price, ₹26,000 above the MX5 Diesel RWD MT. AX3L is sold this one way, as the Diesel 6-speed manual. Worth a hard look before you sign: the cheapest MX5 actually costs ₹64,000 less than this variant and buys tyre pressure monitor and front parking sensors among 9 additions, though it gives up level 2 (core suite) ADAS. That price is a different engine or gearbox though: keeping the Diesel with the 6-speed manual, the MX5 starts at ₹17.02L.
More about the AX3L trim
The tech track: Level 2 ADAS, digital cluster and connected car tech on the diesel manual, but none of MX5's comfort kit.
Mahindra Thar Roxx AX3L: the questions people ask
Price, on-road total, engine and what this trim goes without.
- What is the price of the Mahindra Thar Roxx AX3L Diesel MT?
- ₹17.28L, ex-showroom. That makes it 7th of 21 by price, ₹26,000 above the MX5 Diesel RWD MT.
- What is the on-road price of the Mahindra Thar Roxx AX3L Diesel MT?
- Expect ₹18,45,208 in Itanagar and ₹21,03,162 in Bengaluru. Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so the identical car costs ₹2,57,954 more at one end of the country than the other. That is the ex-showroom price plus road tax, registration and the rest of the charges, across the 25 states we have verified. It does not include comprehensive own-damage cover, which every insurer prices differently.
- Which engine and gearbox does the Mahindra Thar Roxx AX3L Diesel MT have?
- The Diesel, 152 PS, with the 6-speed manual. The maker's figure for it is 15.2 km/l.
- What features does the Mahindra Thar Roxx AX3L Diesel MT get?
- The features worth naming on this trim: ADAS (Level 2 (core suite)), Connected car tech, Auto climate (single zone), Driver display (10.25" digital), Rear parking camera and Wireless CarPlay / Android Auto.
- What does the Mahindra Thar Roxx AX3L Diesel MT miss out on?
- The MX5 above it adds tyre pressure monitor, front parking sensors, wheel type (Alloy against Steel), LED fog lamps and 5 more, for ₹64,000 less. That is the cheapest way into the MX5 though, on a different engine or gearbox: keeping this one, it is ₹26,000 less. It would also cost you level 2 (core suite) ADAS and driver display (10.25" digital against Semi-digital), so it is not purely a step up.
- Is the AX3L the right Thar Roxx to buy?
- That depends on where the value sits across the whole range rather than on this trim alone, and we work it out variant by variant on our Mahindra Thar Roxx which-variant page. The short answer: pay for a step only where the features it adds are ones you would actually use.
