New Mahindra Bolero 2024: Now launched in CNG too, with great mileage and affordable price
The long awaited moment has finally arrived in India – Mahindra has launched its new and updated Bolero 2024. This time the Bolero is cheaper than before, gives more mileage and one special thing – now it also comes with a CNG option. Its starting price has been kept at ₹ 7.85 lakh (ex-showroom), which makes it even more attractive for mid-budget buyers.
From villages to cities – Bolero’s trust
If any SUV has been ruling the roads of India for years, it is the Bolero. This vehicle is especially liked in rural areas, small towns and even in business work. Its strong body structure, low-maintenance engine and strong performance have been its specialty.
Now Mahindra has made it even better for family use. That is, for those who are looking for an SUV that is within budget, comfortable, and drives easily even on bad roads, this is a great option for them.
New touch in design – While maintaining the old style
The new Bolero has retained the old, boxy design, which has always been its identity. But at the same time Mahindra has made some smart changes so that it looks a little modern.
- The front grille is now bigger and comes with a great touch of chrome. Also, the new Mahindra logo gives it a more new look.
- The headlights are now in sharp design and LED DRLs (Daytime Running Lamps) have also been given in the high variant.
- The bumper has also been redesigned to give a muscular look.
Seen from the side, the tall height and straight body panels of the Bolero reflect its strong image. New body-color ORVMs (side mirrors) and door handles along with new graphics and stickers give it a fresh look.
How is the experience from inside?
The interior of the Bolero is simple but useful. The dashboard layout is simple and easy to use. It has everything you need – nothing more, nothing less.
- The seats now have more cushioning, which will reduce fatigue during long distance travel.
- The materials are simple but strong, which are made to last longer even on bad roads and with heavy use.
The interior is perfect for those who value durability more than fancy looks.
Engine and performance – diesel as well as CNG
The new Bolero now has two engine options – one diesel and the other CNG. Both have been tuned in such a way that they get good mileage and can give reliable performance for a long time.
1.5-litre mHawk diesel engine:
- 75 Bhp of power and 210 Nm of torque
- 5-speed manual gearbox
- Great low-end torque, which means it can run smoothly even on slopes or with heavy loads
New CNG variant:
- 1.5-litre petrol-CNG engine
- Slightly less power but great mileage
- For the first time, the Bolero is being offered with a company-fitted CNG kit
This variant is especially for those who travel a lot on a daily basis – like taxi operators, small traders or people in towns who need cheap fuel.
Ride and handling – Bolero reigns supreme on bad roads
The Bolero has always been the choice of those who want a car that runs well even on bad, rough roads. The new Bolero retains the same DNA.
- Ladder frame chassis – Strong and reliable
- Suspension setup – Tuned to handle heavy loads, thus offering a more stable feel
- Ground clearance – High, which makes it easy to navigate even big speed breakers and unpaved roads
The ride may feel a little hard on highways, but the Bolero is unbeatable on village trails.
Features – Now a little more tech-savvy
The new Bolero now gets some essential modern features to provide basic convenience to modern buyers:
- Power windows
- Manual AC
- Bluetooth music system
- USB charging port
- Semi-digital instrument cluster
- Central locking
- Driver and co-passenger airbags
- ABS and EBD
Some variants may also get reverse parking sensors and a simple touchscreen infotainment system.
Mileage and fuel economy – light on the pocket
The biggest plus point of the Bolero has always been its mileage, and now that it has a CNG version, it has become even more beneficial.
- Diesel version – around 16-17 kmpl
- CNG version – 26-27 kmpl
The mileage of CNG is so great that it will reduce your fuel expenses drastically in the long run. This is especially a win-win for taxi drivers and small businessmen.
Pricing and variants – a model for every need
The new Bolero is priced at ₹ 7.85 lakh and goes up to ₹ 9.45 lakh (ex-showroom). This price makes it the most affordable and value for money SUV in its segment.
Variants:
- Diesel: B4, B6, B6 (O)
- CNG: B4, B6, B6 (O)
So, if you want a simple work vehicle, you can go for the B4, and if you want a more feature-packed version for the family, then there is also the B6 (O).
