Mahindra Bolero has finally been spotted with the updated safety features. The updated workhorse SUV is expected to launch soon in the market.
Safety norms are hitting car manufacturers hard and so it has also caught the Mahindra Bolero now. The spy shots reveal a safety feature, ABS, in the Bolero. That said, now the ruler king will be a safer choice for those who are looking to buy it. The ABS indicator has been positioned beside the engine start-stop button on the dashboard.

Bolero has been in the Indian market since 2001 and clearly is the favourite in rural areas. Last year, Mahindra sold over 75,000 units which clearly makes it why the company wouldn’t stop the production of the car.
Mahindra Bolero updates time to time but still haven’t received any second generation model and the company wishes to keep it this way only. The car is made available in 7, 8 and 9 seat option. The designing of Bolero comes with honeycomb mesh and features dual tone upholstery in the interiors. The car gets 3 years or 100000 km warranty, whichever comes first.
