Mahindra Thar is in news once again, and this time it involves yet another crash. A video that has gone viral shows a Thar carrying a group of young men and women moments after it rams into a parked Hyundai i20 on the roadside.

The clip shows, visible damage to the i20’s rear quarter panel, bumper and door area with plastic components appearing dislodged.

One of the boys believed to be driving appears visibly shaken speaking to his father over the phone. He can be heard saying, “Papa main gaadi chala raha tha… chauraha pe doosri gaadi aa rahi thi. Papa, Papa, suddenly ho gaya crash.”

However, moments later, he attempts to drive away but is stopped by onlookers.

Netizens react:

One user commented that rash driving by ‘rich kids’ is increasingly putting innocent lives at risk and called for stricter enforcement of traffic laws.

Another wrote, “Local Goans generally follow traffic discipline, but many violations are allegedly committed by drivers of rental vehicles who behave irresponsibly on unfamiliar roads.”

A third comment mockingly referred to the SUV as “THARrorist,” reflecting the growing backlash against the vehicle’s repeated appearance in viral crash videos.
