It is intriguing to see how the 5-door off-roader has appeared in the aftermarket albeit the deliveries have not even commenced yet.
In a rather shocking turn of events, a Mahindra Thar Roxx was spotted experiencing a full body modification. That is beyond perception as the deliveries are set to commence from this Dussehra. The Indian auto giant launched the 5-door That on August 15 with an enticing starting price of Rs 12.99 lakh, ex-showroom. However, the prices of the 4×4 versions elude us at the moment. In any case, the 5-door Thar bears a myriad of alterations in comparison to the 3-door avatar. This includes aspects like safety, features, powertrains, appearance and more. For now, let us take a look at the details of this latest case.
Mahindra Thar Roxx Full-Body Modification
The details of this post stem from platinum_offroaders_abohar on Instagram. The visuals capture a thought-provoking process. Somehow, the aftermarket car shop owner has been able to get hold of what looks like a discarded body shell of the Mahindra Thar Roxx. In fact, it seems damaged due to some reason. Perhaps by pulling some strings, the man was able to get his hands on it. Now, it is parked in the workshop and has even received large retro steel wheels. In some visuals, we are also able to see it with an aggressive black aftermarket grille. Clearly, the modification procedure will be extensive.
In all honesty, I don’t have much information about the origins of this story. To get the body shell of a car which has not arrived in showrooms is rather challenging. If I were to hazard a guess, it is possible that the man has some connection with the manufacturing facility. We know that Mahindra has produced tons of Roxx by the time of launch. During this process, there must be numerous failed/damaged specimens. He simply bought one of those and will fix the body shell in his garage and apply aftermarket accessories to create something unique. That explains the real body shell of the Mahindra Thar Roxx ahead of the deliveries.
Our View
This has to be one of the most bizarre stories about the Mahindra Thar Roxx I have come across in recent times. I have reported innumerable instances of people heading to the aftermarket car modification houses to install all sorts of weird accessories to make their vehicles stand out from the crowd. However, I have never seen the real body shell of the car appear in the aftermarket before the deliveries started. In any case, I am thrilled to follow further developments in this regard in times to come.
