Mahindra Thar crashing into highway signboard real or fake? Here’s the truth

A video claiming to show a Mahindra Thar crashing into a large highway exit signboard is going viral on social media. In the clip, the SUV appears stuck high up inside an overhead board that reads “Delhi, Gurugram, Jaipur, Exit 22, NH-48.” The scene looks shocking at first. But the big question is simple. Is it real?The video has been doing the rounds on X and Instagram, with many users posting it as a real accident. As seen in the video and images, the Thar is positioned unusually high on the signboard, as if it had somehow jumped off the road and landed there.To make it more believable, it also has a truck with a ramp on it. However, that truck itself is AI-generated. The way the SUV is placed also looks unnatural. An SUV reaching that height and remaining perfectly lodged there defies basic logic.

After verification, it is clear that the video is fake. The viral footage has been created using artificial intelligence and does not show a real crash. There has been no confirmed incident involving a Mahindra Thar crashing into a highway signboard at Exit 22 on NH-48.As AI-generated videos become more common, such content can easily spread confusion online. It is important to verify information before sharing it. In this case, the Thar did not crash into any signboard. The video is digitally created and not a real-world accident.Stay tuned to TOI Auto for the latest updates from the automotive sector and follow us on our social media handles on Facebook, Instagram and X.
