The new Mahindra Bolero is set to make a strong comeback in the Indian automobile market in 2025. Mahindra has always been known for its robust and reliable SUVs, and the Bolero is a prime example of that.
The new model features a modern design, updated technology, and improved comfort, making it perfect for both city and off-road use. The new incarnation retains the strengths of the previous model, while being even more stylish and advanced.
New Mahindra Bolero 2025 Features
The new Mahindra Bolero 2025 features significant upgrades. It boasts modern features like a new digital instrument cluster, a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, Bluetooth, and smartphone connectivity. Features like automatic climate control, power windows, rear parking sensors, and cruise control further enhance its premium feel.
Safety features like ABS, EBD, dual airbags, and hill assist are also expected. The body design will appear more stylish and robust, giving it a more imposing road presence.
New Mahindra Bolero 2025 Engine
The estimated price of the new Mahindra Bolero 2025 in the Indian market is expected to be between ₹10.50 lakh and ₹12.80 lakh. The price will vary depending on the variant and features. With its affordable price, robustness, and advanced features, this SUV could be an excellent choice for customers looking for a car for both family and rugged use.
Design – Old magic, new look
The new model will be inspired by the old Bolero but will look more modern. The front grille will be larger and chrome-plated, the bumpers will be muscular, and the sides will feature redesigned ORVMs and door handles. The rear will feature new LED tail lamps and a large “BOLERO” badge. Overall, the car will appear to be slightly influenced by the Thar and Scorpio, but at only a quarter of the price!
Who will buy this new Bolero?
- .Rural traders and farmers – who drive 100-150 km daily and need a sturdy vehicle.
- Small business owners – for transporting goods and employees.
- Large middle-class families – with 7-8 members and find cars like the Ertiga and Triber expensive.
- Taxi and tour operators – for low maintenance and excellent mileage.
- First-time SUV buyers – with a budget of up to ₹5 lakh.
On-road prices are also expected to be between ₹3 lakh and ₹4 lakh, depending on the state. This means that those who previously could only afford a Maruti Alto, WagonR, or older Bolero will now have the option of a truly rugged 7-seater SUV.
20 kmpl mileage – New avatar of diesel engine
The old Bolero’s 1.5-liter mHawk diesel engine produced 75 hp and a mileage of around 13-14 kmpl. However, the new Bolero will feature a new 1.2-liter turbocharged diesel engine that will generate 90-100 hp and 220-250 Nm of torque. The most important thing is that this engine meets RDE and BS6 Phase-2 norms and is claimed to deliver ARAI-certified mileage of 19-20 kmpl.
In rural areas, where people want to cover as much distance as possible with a liter of diesel, a 20 kmpl mileage is a boon. Even with a 1,500 km drive per month, the diesel cost will only be ₹7,000-8,000. This means that even with the EMI and diesel costs, this vehicle will be as economical as a scooter.
Features never before seen in such an affordable Bolero.
The company is determined to attract customers in the budget segment this time around. The list of potential features will surprise you:
- 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system (Android Auto & Apple CarPlay)
- Reverse parking camera + sensors
- Dual front airbags (no compromise on safety)
- ABS with EBD
- Keyless entry and push-button start (top variant)
- Power windows front and rear
- Manual AC (automatic AC available in top model)
- Height-adjustable driver seat
- Halogen headlamps with LED DRLs
- 15-inch steel wheels (alloy wheels optional on top variant)
The most important thing is that the Bolero’s old body-on-frame chassis has been strengthened. Thanks to the ladder frame chassis, the vehicle remains number one for handling rough terrain, mud, water, and heavy loads.
