The Bolero has always been considered a reliable and robust multi-UV, especially in rural and semi-urban areas. It is expected to maintain its traditional design in this new edition also.

However, new stickers and latest graphics can be seen on its side panels, which will give it a fresh and attractive look on the road.
If we talk about the facilities available inside the cabin, it will continue to have the necessary things like manual air conditioning, comfortable fabric seats, power windows for all four doors, power steering and analog instrument cluster. Apart from this, the 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system that the company added last year, which is equipped with Bluetooth, USB and phone mirroring features like Google Maps, can also be continued in this new model or it can be further improved.
Talking about powertrain, there is every possibility of getting the same old and reliable 1.5-litre 3-cylinder mHawk turbo-diesel engine under the hood of this SUV. This engine is capable of producing power of 75 bhp and maximum torque of 210 Nm. The 5-speed manual gearbox available in it transfers power to the rear wheels. Apart from this, the improvements that Mahindra made in its suspension setup last year will also be seen in this new edition so that the journey remains comfortable even on the worst roads.
Currently Mahindra Bolero is available in the Indian market in different variants like B4, B6 and B8, whose ex-showroom prices start from Rs 8.57 lakh to Rs 9.99 lakh. Auto sector experts estimate that the company can make the official announcement and launch of this new version or special edition on October 15. The arrival of this vehicle this festive season will once again bring joy to the faces of those buyers who want a perfect combination of simplicity and strength.
