Mahindra Bolero 2025: New Look, Turbo Diesel Engine & Rugged 7-Seater

Mahindra Bolero 2025: Mahindra has officially unveiled the updated Bolero 2025 — one of India’s most iconic rugged SUVs — with a refreshed design, BS6 Phase 2–compliant turbo diesel engine, and enhanced safety and comfort features. Known for its durability, low maintenance, and commanding road presence, the Bolero 2025 now gets modern touches while retaining its utilitarian roots. The 7-seater SUV remains one of the most practical options for Indian families and commercial buyers under ₹10 lakh.

Updated Design with Bold Character

The Bolero 2025 gets a subtle design upgrade, featuring a wider front grille with chrome inserts, reshaped halogen headlamps, and a new dual-tone bumper with integrated reflectors. The iconic boxy silhouette continues but gets smoother lines and sharper creases. Mahindra has also added new body graphics, larger wheel arches, and restyled tail-lamps to enhance its rugged appeal.

Powerful & Reliable Turbo Diesel Engine

Under the hood, the Bolero 2025 retains the trusted 1.5L mHawk75 3-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine, delivering 75 PS of power and 210 Nm of torque. Mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox, it’s tuned for high torque at low RPMs — ideal for rural, hilly, and load-carrying use. The ARAI-certified mileage is expected to be around 16–17 kmpl, with strong low-end grunt for heavy-duty applications.

Tough Build with Modern Safety Features

Built on a ladder-frame chassis, the Bolero 2025 is designed to endure rough terrains. It now includes dual airbags, ABS with EBD, reverse parking sensors, speed alert system, and seatbelt reminders as standard across all variants. With a high ground clearance and reinforced body shell, it continues to dominate Indian roads where durability matters most.

Spacious 7-Seater Cabin with Practical Additions

Inside, the Bolero offers a 2+3+2 seating layout with fabric upholstery, front power windows, manual AC, digital MID cluster, and a 12V charging socket. Higher variants include keyless entry, Bluetooth-enabled music system with USB support, and new wood-finish elements on the dashboard. While the interiors remain simple, they are built for longevity and comfort.

Multiple Trims with Rural & Urban Utility

Mahindra will continue to offer the Bolero 2025 in multiple variants: B4, B6, and B6 (O), each tailored to different buyer profiles. From personal family buyers to rural transporters, the Bolero remains a top choice for anyone needing a strong and reliable 7-seater under ₹10 lakh.

Expected Price and Availability

The Mahindra Bolero 2025 is expected to be launched across India in Q4 2025, with prices starting around ₹9.79 lakh and going up to ₹10.89 lakh (ex-showroom). With updated emissions compliance and added features, it will continue to compete with the Tata Sumo (2025), Force Gurkha Base, and entry-level 7-seater SUVs in both personal and commercial segments.

Conclusion

The Mahindra Bolero 2025 is proof that reliability never goes out of style. With a tougher body, turbo diesel power, 7-seat practicality, and a sub-₹11 lakh price tag, it remains the undisputed king of India’s rugged SUV market — perfect for villages, highways, and workhorse buyers alike.
