The Mahindra Thar has become an icon on Indian roads — rugged, muscular, and adventure-ready. But let’s be honest: while the stock Thar looks great, many owners want to push the aesthetics and performance even further with modifications.
But before you dive into a full-blown customization, the big question is: how much does a Thar modification really cost?
In this post, we break it down for you.
Appearance: Custom bumpers, grille changes, alloy wheels, LED headlamps, and special wraps give the Thar a unique look.
Performance: Upgraded suspension, off-road tires, snorkels, or exhaust systems enhance its off-road capabilities.
Comfort & Features: Leather seats, infotainment upgrades, premium sound systems, and interior mood lighting make the cabin feel more premium.
Here’s a rough estimate for some popular mods (these are average market prices as of 2025, but costs can vary by city and workshop):
Note: These are just base estimates. Custom-designed or imported parts, professional installation, and legal compliances can push prices even higher.
✅ Legal Compliance: Not all modifications are road-legal. For example, drastic suspension lifts or loud exhausts can attract fines under Indian traffic rules. Always check RTO guidelines.
✅ Warranty Impact: Some aftermarket modifications can void parts of your Mahindra warranty. Check with your dealer before making performance changes.
✅ Insurance Update: If you’ve done major mods, inform your insurance company to ensure coverage is updated.
✅ Choose Quality Workshops: Go to reputed modification houses — poorly done mods can compromise safety or wear out quickly.
If you love personalizing your vehicle and want it to stand out or perform better off-road, modifications can absolutely be worth it. But set a realistic budget — even minor changes add up quickly.
On average, a light aesthetic mod package might cost you ₹1–2 lakh, while a full performance and cosmetic build can easily cross ₹5–6 lakh or more.
Modifying a Thar is a passion project for many enthusiasts. Whether you’re going for a rugged off-roader or a head-turning urban beast, knowing the costs upfront helps you plan better.
