What is the actual measured ground clearance of the Tharu?
2 Answers
The Tharu currently has 11 models on sale, featuring 2 engine options (1.4T and 2.0T) and 1 transmission choice (dual-clutch). The minimum ground clearance is 150mm. Below is more related information: 1. Ground clearance: The ground clearance values of a car are not static; they depend on the load condition. Therefore, determining the ground clearance also depends on changes in load, and the maximum variation in load should be considered when evaluating ground clearance. The minimum ground clearance refers to the distance between the lowest point of the car (excluding the wheels) and the supporting surface when the car is fully loaded and stationary. It is used to indicate the car's ability to pass over obstacles like rocks or tree stumps without collision. 2. Differences in ground clearance size: A larger minimum ground clearance enhances the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles or uneven terrain but raises the center of gravity, reducing stability. A smaller minimum ground clearance weakens the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles or uneven terrain but lowers the center of gravity, improving stability. 3. Tharu's exterior: The Tharu's front face design is very solid and full. The hollowed-out front grille is integrated with the headlight assembly, complemented by a rugged front bumper design, highlighting a tough and robust character. In terms of body colors, the new car will offer six options: Carbon Crystal Gray, Elegant White, Ink Gray, Modern Gold, Glamour Brown, and Lake Light Blue.
I usually commute to work in my Tharu, and I've personally measured its ground clearance to be around 186 millimeters. This is very practical on urban roads, such as when going over speed bumps or curbs, as the chassis rarely scrapes the ground. I often encounter rough road sections, and the 186mm height handles puddles or small steps with ease, especially when the trunk is fully loaded with minimal impact. Generally speaking, higher ground clearance helps protect undercarriage components from wear and prolongs suspension life. During my last maintenance, the technician noted that this height is close to the official data, which works well. However, actual measurements may vary slightly depending on tire pressure or load conditions. Overall, 186mm makes daily driving worry-free by reducing unnecessary repair hassles. I recommend owners regularly check their suspension condition to maintain optimal performance.
