Factors Affecting Mahindra Thar Mileage

The mileage you can expect from the Mahindra Thar depends on several factors:

  • Driving Style: Aggressive starts/stops, overtakes, and speeding require more engine power, decreasing economy. A defensive driving style is critical.

  • Road Conditions: Off-roading, broken roads, gradients, and city traffic reduce mileage compared to smooth highways. Plan routes accordingly.

  • Maintenance: Poor maintenance, such as incorrect tyre pressure, dirty air filters, and old spark plugs, increases friction and load on the engine, lowering economy.

  • Weather Conditions: Extreme hot or cold weather, as well as strong headwinds, decrease efficiency. Plan longer travel times and account for more fuel consumption.

  • Load/Passengers: Heavy payload in the cabin and boot or driving at total seating capacity adds weight, putting more load on the engine. Travel light for better mileage.

  • Fuel Quality: Using dirty or contaminated fuel can decrease the engine's combustion efficiency, again negatively impacting the economy. Always opt for well-known fuel brands.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the mileage of Thar?

The manual diesel variant delivers around 15.2 kmpl, while the automatic diesel variant also returns about 15.2 kmpl. Both manual and automatic petrol variants achieve a consistent mileage of approximately 15.2 kmpl. These figures vary depending on driving conditions, terrain, maintenance, and habits

Does off-roading decrease the Thar’s mileage?

Yes, mileage takes a considerable hit while off-roading, given the low gear usage and uneven terrain. Expect mileage to drop by 30-40%.

How can I improve mileage when driving in the city?

Frequent start-stops, traffic and lower average speeds in cities decrease mileage. Try to maintain momentum and avoid unnecessary idling and sudden acceleration/braking. Also, use AC judiciously.

Will using a roof carrier affect the Thar’s fuel efficiency?

Yes, depending on the load, a roof carrier can decrease economy by 5-10% since it creates aerodynamic drag that impacts efficiency. Remove it when not in use.

What tyre pressure should I maintain for optimal mileage?

Keep your Thar's tyres inflated to the recommended pressure in the owner's manual for the best mileage. Underinflated tyres reduce the economy.

How much does driving with a total passenger load impact mileage?

Driving with 4 passengers and luggage could reduce economy by 15%, as the extra weight on the engine requires more fuel to power the vehicle.

Will using lower fuel quality decrease the Thar’s mileage?

Lower quality or contaminated fuel can decrease combustion efficiency by 5-10%, negatively impacting mileage. Always opt for well-known fuel brands for optimal efficiency.
