Mahindra Gives the Bolero a Swag Upgrade — Tough Just Got Trendy

Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd., India’s go-to SUV maker for everything from city chaos to cow-track commutes, has unveiled the new Bolero range with a bold new look, upgraded interiors, and a dose of modern tech. Prices for the New Bolero start at ₹7.99 lakh (ex-showroom), while the New Bolero Neo kicks off at ₹8.49 lakh, topping out at ₹9.99 lakh for the newly introduced N11 variant — proof that style and sturdiness can now arrive in the same package without a premium membership.


Legacy Meets Lifestyle

With a solid 25-year legacy and over 16 lakh loyal owners, the Bolero has long been India’s trusty all-terrain companion — equally at ease in a crowded market lane or a muddy village trail. Now, it’s not just tough — it’s trending. Mahindra’s facelift brings a sharper face, smarter interiors, and features that make even city slickers do a double take.

“The Bolero has stood the test of time, earning its place as one of India’s most versatile and tough SUVs,” said Nalinikanth Gollagunta, CEO – Automotive Division, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd. “The new range is designed for a dynamic New India, blending toughness with modern flair.”


New Bolero: Rugged, Refined, Ready

The classic Bolero now sports a bold new grille, front fog lamps, and diamond-cut R15 alloys — because even legends deserve good shoes. The new Stealth Black shade adds an extra layer of intimidation, perfect for those who like their SUVs to look like they mean business.

Inside, the Bolero swaps its no-nonsense cabin for a 17.8 cm touchscreen infotainment system, steering-mounted controls, and leatherette upholstery. Thanks to Mahindra’s RideFlo Tech, ride comfort and handling are improved without compromising its no-nonsense body-on-frame toughness. Under the hood, the mHAWK75 engine keeps things familiar with 55.9 kW power and 210 Nm torque — proving some classics don’t need turbo whistles to make a statement.


New Bolero Neo: Urban Swagger, Rural Muscle

For those who want their Bolero to look at home outside cafés as much as in fields, the Bolero Neo blends modern design with classic strength. A sleek grille with horizontal accents, dark metallic R16 alloys, and two fresh interior themes (Lunar Grey and Mocha Brown) give it a more premium vibe.

Inside, drivers get a 22.8 cm touchscreen with a rear-view camera, leatherette seats, and USB Type-C charging — because yes, even rugged SUVs need fast charging now. Underneath, MTV-CL & Frequency Dependent Damping suspension works with RideFlo Tech to smooth out potholes and broken roads, while the mHAWK100 engine (73.5 kW & 260 Nm) and Multi-Terrain Technology make sure traction never takes a day off.


Two Boleros. One Mission.

Whether you’re a city slicker who occasionally ventures beyond the ring road or a rural go-getter who’s ready to add a splash of style to your daily haul, Mahindra’s refreshed Bolero lineup ensures there’s a flavour for everyone.

The OG Bolero remains the symbol of reliability and grit, while the Neo steps up as the stylish yet capable sibling, proving that toughness can now come with touchscreen flair.
