Our verdict
The Thar OG and Fronx serve different purposes rather than directly competing in the same category. Choose the Thar OG if rugged character, off-road ability and an SUV lifestyle are your priorities. The Fronx makes more sense for buyers seeking an easier-to-drive, practical and city-focused crossover for everyday use.
