Same money, which car?
Take ₹23.53L to both showrooms and you come out with the Thar Roxx AX7L at ₹23.53L or the Harrier Fearless X+ at ₹22.12L, the Harrier leaving ₹1.41L of that in your pocket.
Our take
The real reason to pay ₹1.41L more for the Thar Roxx AX7L: blind spot monitor. The useful extras on top: hill descent control and terrain modes. The rest of the additions are minor trim. At that price, we would stretch.
- Going to the Thar Roxx AX7L, you give up all-wheel disc brakes, JBL system with Dolby Atmos and dual-zone climate control, which the Harrier Fearless X+ keeps
- Choose the Tata Harrier Fearless X+ if
- You would rather keep the ₹1.41L than pay for kit you will not miss
- Choose the Mahindra Thar Roxx AX7L if
- Safety kit matters more to you than keeping the money
