Unlike the Thar OG, the Jimny sold in India gets a five-door body style, making it more practical for buyers who regularly carry passengers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is powered by a 1.5-litre naturally aspirated four-cylinder petrol engine that produces 104.8hp and 134.2Nm. The engine can be paired with a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed torque-converter automatic gearbox. Four-wheel drive and a low-range transfer case are standard across the range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Jimny has a claimed mileage of 16.94kmpl with the manual gearbox and 16.39kmpl with the automatic. It also gets features such as a 9-inch touchscreen, cruise control, LED headlamps and six airbags on applicable variants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"why-it-is-better-than-mahindra-thar-og\">Why it is better than Mahindra Thar OG<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Jimny has a few advantages over the Thar OG, particularly for buyers who want a smaller and lighter off-road SUV. Its compact dimensions make it easier to manoeuvre in narrow roads and tight parking spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It also offers five doors, which makes access to the rear seats easier than in the three-door Thar OG. The Jimny also comes with 4WD and low-range gearing across its range, so buyers do not have to move to a higher variant to get its core off-road hardware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fuel efficiency is another area where the Jimny has an advantage on paper. Its claimed 16.94kmpl manual mileage is higher than the fuel-efficiency figures currently available for the Thar OG, for which official mileage has not yet been announced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"price-comparison-maruti-suzuki-jimny-vs-mahindra-thar-og\">Price Comparison: Maruti Suzuki Jimny vs. Mahindra Thar OG<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Variant<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Maruti Suzuki Jimny<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Mahindra Thar OG<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Base-variant<\/strong><\/td><td>Zeta MT \u2013 \u20b912.54 Lakh<\/td><td>AXT 1.5 Diesel MT RWD \u2013 \u20b910.32 Lakh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Mid-variant<\/strong><\/td><td>Alpha MT \u2013 \u20b913.45 Lakh<\/td><td>LXT 1.5 Diesel MT RWD \u2013 \u20b912.99 Lakh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Top-variant<\/strong><\/td><td>Alpha AT \u2013 \u20b914.52 Lakh<\/td><td>ZXT 2.2 Diesel AT 4WD \u2013 \u20b918.99 Lakh<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Thar OG has a lower starting price, while the Jimny&#8217;s range is more compact in terms of its overall price spread. The Thar OG, however, offers more powerful engine and transmission combinations as buyers move higher up the range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Also Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/maruti-suzuki-jimny-variants-guide-choose-the-best-variant\/\">Maruti Suzuki Jimny Variants Guide: Choose the Best Variant<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"force-gurkha-3-door\">Force Gurkha 3-door<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228142007\/Force-Gurkha-Side-Snorkel-1160x653.jpg\" alt=\"Force Gurkha Side Snorkel\" class=\"wp-image-452854\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228142007\/Force-Gurkha-Side-Snorkel-1160x653.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228142007\/Force-Gurkha-Side-Snorkel-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228142007\/Force-Gurkha-Side-Snorkel-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228142007\/Force-Gurkha-Side-Snorkel-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228142007\/Force-Gurkha-Side-Snorkel-834x469.jpg 834w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228142007\/Force-Gurkha-Side-Snorkel.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Force Gurkha 3-door is another direct alternative to the Mahindra Thar OG. It has a more focused off-road design and comes with a three-door body, making it similar to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/cars\/mahindra\/thar\/?utm_source=TharOgAlternatives&amp;utm_medium=BlogLink\">old Thar<\/a>  in its basic layout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Gurkha uses a 2.6-litre four-cylinder diesel engine that produces 140hp and 320Nm. It is paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox and comes with a 4WD system with a low-range transfer case as standard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The SUV also has a high ground clearance of around 233mm and a 700mm water-wading capability. It is sold in a single fully loaded variant in the Indian market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"why-it-is-better-than-mahindra-thar-og-1\">Why it is better than Mahindra Thar OG<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Force Gurkha has an advantage for buyers who want a dedicated off-road setup without having to select a particular higher-end variant. Its 4WD system, low-range transfer case and locking differentials are part of its standard package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its 2.6-litre diesel engine also produces 320Nm of torque, giving it strong low-speed pulling ability for difficult terrain. The Gurkha&#8217;s 700mm water-wading capability is another important advantage for buyers who regularly drive through deep water or challenging trails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Gurkha also retains a very rugged approach to its cabin and equipment, making it more focused on off-road use than everyday luxury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"price-comparison-force-gurkha-3-door-vs-mahindra-thar-og\">Price Comparison: Force Gurkha 3-door vs. Mahindra Thar OG<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Force Gurkha 3-door is available in only one variant, so it does not have separate base, mid and top variants. The table below compares its single price with the three main trim levels of the Thar OG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Variant<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Force Gurkha 3-door<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Mahindra Thar OG<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Base-variant<\/strong><\/td><td>Standard Variant \u2013 \u20b916.75 Lakh<\/td><td>AXT 1.5 Diesel MT RWD \u2013 \u20b910.32 Lakh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Mid-variant<\/strong><\/td><td>Standard Variant \u2013 \u20b916.75 Lakh<\/td><td>LXT 1.5 Diesel MT RWD \u2013 \u20b912.99 Lakh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Top-variant<\/strong><\/td><td>Standard Variant \u2013 \u20b916.75 Lakh<\/td><td>ZXT 2.2 Diesel AT 4WD \u2013 \u20b918.99 Lakh<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Gurkha&#8217;s single-variant approach keeps the equipment and powertrain choice simple, while the Thar OG offers a much wider range of configurations.

It is available with a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine and a 2.2-litre diesel engine. Both engines can be paired with manual and automatic transmissions, depending on the variant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The diesel versions also get a 4WD option on selected variants. The Thar Roxx measures 4,428mm in length and has a 2,850mm wheelbase, making it considerably larger than the Thar OG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Also Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/complete-guide-mahindra-thar-roxx\/\">Complete Guide to Buying a Mahindra Thar Roxx<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"why-it-is-better-than-mahindra-thar-og-2\">Why it is better than Mahindra Thar OG<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The biggest advantage of the Thar Roxx is its additional space. The five-door body makes it easier for passengers to get in and out of the rear seats, while the longer wheelbase provides more room inside the cabin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Thar Roxx also offers a larger boot and a longer list of premium features on higher variants.

But if you are looking for something similar, other SUVs on the market offer a different mix of attributes, such as more space and double power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Maruti Suzuki Jimny offers a small five-door body and a petrol engine with 4WD. The Force Gurkha 3-door focuses on being a proper off-road vehicle with features such as 4WD and low-range gearing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are looking for something bigger to accommodate more space for family and daily use, then the Mahindra Thar Roxx will be an ideal choice, as it comes with a five-door and more space, but it is also positioned higher in price than the Thar OG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It all boils down to your budget, body-style preference, everyday use, and whether you want something with serious off-road credentials or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"fa-qs\">FAQs About Mahindra Thar OG Alternatives<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"saswp-faq-block-section\"><ol style=\"list-style-type:none\"><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3 class=\"\"><strong>Q.
