[edit] Driving impressions
Mahindra Bolero is a basic utility vehicle that is well-suited to Indian conditions. Even though it is based on a decades’ old platform, its high ground clearance makes it easier to drive on rural Indian roads. Equipped with a 2500 cc diesel engine, it has become the vehicle of choice for rural populace.
Bolero’s interiors are designed for paved roads as well as untarred roads and hilly terrain. Its non-adjustable seats, vague steering, basic AC, and 4-speaker Kenwood/Sony music system all contribute to a less than exciting, crude and agricultural driving experience.
[edit] Trim options
Mahindra Bolero is available in seven variants - GLX, SPORTZ, DX, DI, XLS, XL, INVADER, and CAMPER.
Mahindra & Mahindra has launched an upgraded variant of Bolero Camper in 2007, the Bolero Camper DX, priced at Rs 5.5 lakh.
