New Thar Roxx Special Edition has more features than expected – 360 Camera, Front Ventilated Seats, Panoramic Sunroof!
Mahindra has officially shaken up the lifestyle SUV segment by launching the Thar Roxx Star Edition (dubbed as “Star Edn”). With a starting introductory price of Rs 16.85 lakh (ex-showroom), this new special edition is being hailed as the most value-for-money variant in the Roxx lineup.
While most special editions focus only on decals, the Star Edition brings a sophisticated “blacked-out” aesthetic and high-end features to a more accessible price point.
All-Black Treatment
The Thar Roxx Star Edition is designed for those who want a commanding road presence. Mahindra has ditched the standard trim in favor of a premium, aggressive look. Highlights includes –
- Piano-black front grille and massive 19-inch Piano Black alloy wheels.
- New Colour Options: Stealth Black, Citrine Yellow, Tango Red, or Everest White.
- Inside, the cabin undergoes a total transformation. All-black leatherette upholstery with suede accents, giving the interior a sporty, high-end feel.
Tech and Comfort
The Star Edition isn’t just about looks; it is packed with tech that usually belongs in top-tier luxury variants. Mahindra has bundled the most “wish-listed” features into this package:
- 10.25-inch Infotainment System
- 10.25-inch Full Digital Cluster with Built-in Map View
- 9-speaker Harman Kardon system
- 83 Connected Car Features
- Front Ventilated Seats with Sliding Armrest
- Panoramic Sunroof
- 360 Degree Camera

Final Thoughts
By pricing the Star Edition competitively, Mahindra has created a “sweet spot” for buyers.

For the lifestyle buyer, the Star Edition is arguably the most compelling version of the Thar Roxx to date.
