Now as per our sources, the waiting period for the recently introduced Thar RWD diesel variant varies from around 16-18 months in some regions of the country. However, the petrol version of the RWD model has a waiting period of up to three months.
Mechanically, the Thar RWD comes equipped with a 1.5-litre diesel engine and a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine. The former produces 117bhp and 300Nm of torque and the latter churns out 150bhp and 320Nm of torque.
