Mahindra Bolero Quick Review
The Bolero looks old because it is. On the inside, you’ll find digital instruments but there’s no hiding the Bolero’s vintage. Flawed ergonomics, flat seats and cramped seating in the second and third rows also make the Bolero’s cabin far from inviting.
With all of 63hp to offer, the Bolero’s 2.5-litre diesel engine feels out of breath at anything but moderate speeds. However, low-speed responses and even engine refinement are both reasonable. The Bolero’s ride is quite level for a utility vehicle; but high-speed manners are way off modern standards.

Mahindra Bolero Variants: Our Choice
The Bolero may be utilitarian – but cheap, it is not. If you must have a Bolero, opt for the mid-spec SLX that gets front and rear power windows, central locking and an audio system. Sadly, ABS and airbags are not offered on any version of the Bolero.
