Highway, 16 plus while driving normally. It can go upto 20 if on exp way with a steady speed of 80 kmph. Push it hard and FE drops drastically.<\/li>\n<li>Ride and handling- One gets used to it. Thar can be pushed hard on good empty roads and I have floored it on many drives but best to keep it under 120 and most highways have a safe limit of 100.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Niggles:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>DEF issue once &#8211; drove 15 min &gt; 2000 rpm<\/li>\n<li>Squeaking sounds occasionally come and go (with some hydration of the rubber and tightening of nuts) but hey it&#8217;s a Jeep and Mahindra at that.<\/li>\n<li>Cruise Control sometimes doesn\u2019t engage, is the only permanent niggle. Will have it checked.<\/li>\n<li>Ride has improved with time or my body has gotten used to it.<\/li>\n<li>Kids love it and my mom doesn\u2019t complain though Duster is her car of choice. Wife appreciates it but she is yet to drive it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Overall<\/h2>\n<p>Very happy, brings a smile every time I look at it or step in it. Would love to get a Red convertible for my wife (read me) but she doesn\u2019t agree.<\/p>\n<p>Plan to have LED Amber Fogs and maybe a grill swap and bumper plus Cube LEDs on the bonnet.<\/p>\n<p>Happy motoring.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.team-bhp.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures2023-09\/CC28C9240B304F7B961AD7057B3EBE6E.jpeg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.team-bhp.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures2023-09\/FCD1CD04CAF24F6D96C7F03789B7254B.jpeg\"><\/p>\n<p>Check out BHPian comments for more insights and information.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.team-bhp.com\/news\/my-10-month-old-mahindra-thar-15000-km-update-including-fuel-economy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The SUV can be pushed hard on good empty roads and I have floored it on many drives but it&#8217;s<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":248484,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>My 10-month-old Mahindra Thar: 15,000 km update including fuel economy - AutoMotoBuzz.com<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/automotobuzz.com\/news-features\/my-10-month-old-mahindra-thar-15000-km-update-including-fuel-economy\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"My 10-month-old Mahindra Thar: 15,000 km update including fuel economy - AutoMotoBuzz.com\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The SUV can be pushed hard on good empty roads and I have floored it on many drives but it&#8217;s\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/automotobuzz.com\/news-features\/my-10-month-old-mahindra-thar-15000-km-update-including-fuel-economy\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"AutoMotoBuzz.com\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2023-12-14T10:20:44+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"mediabest\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:image\" content=\"https:\/\/automotobuzz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/My-10-month-old-Mahindra-Thar-15000-km-update-including-fuel-economy-.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"mediabest\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/automotobuzz.com\/news-features\/my-10-month-old-mahindra-thar-15000-km-update-including-fuel-economy\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/automotobuzz.com\/news-features\/my-10-month-old-mahindra-thar-15000-km-update-including-fuel-economy\/\",\"name\":\"My 10-month-old Mahindra Thar: 15,000 km update including fuel economy - AutoMotoBuzz.com\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/automotobuzz.com\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2023-12-14T10:20:44+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2023-12-14T10:20:44+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/automotobuzz.com\/#\/schema\/person\/74db1979fe71b5ea01513ec1ce5bc609\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/automotobuzz.com\/news-features\/my-10-month-old-mahindra-thar-15000-km-update-including-fuel-economy\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/automotobuzz.com\/news-features\/my-10-month-old-mahindra-thar-15000-km-update-including-fuel-economy\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/automotobuzz.com\/news-features\/my-10-month-old-mahindra-thar-15000-km-update-including-fuel-economy\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/automotobuzz.com\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"News &amp;
