Mahindra Bolero Camper

Mahindra has been quite a famous car manufacturer, especially in the Indian market. It has earned its reputation by producing some of the best and robust vehicles for transport. However, recently it made its mark in the truck industry by coming up with the Mahindra Bolero camper. This premium vehicle serves both commercial as well as personal purposes. Along with that, this 5-seater cargo truck is reasonably priced. It comes in two variants, one which is a 2 wheel drive model, while the other is a 4-wheel drive model. The lowest 2-wheeler model comes at a price of Rs. 7.35 lakh, while the Bolero Camper Gold ZX comes at 7.9 Lakhs. All these models are diesel versions and have a manual 5-speed transmission.

This is a camper truck version of the Mahindra Bolero, which came out in the year 2008. In 2020, Mahindra has revisited the same car but improved on several things and has come out with a 5-seater camper truck. While there is no boot, the cargo box is quite spacious and can fit almost anything you throw at it. With whopping dimensions of 1481 x 1532 x 750 mm (L x W x H), it is quite a versatile vehicle to have. Even though it does not come with foldable rear seats, with so much cargo space, you will not necessarily need to do that. You also get smaller but convenient storage spaces inside the cabin, which can fit small objects like your phones or magazines.

Mahindra has some of the most amazing features catering to both personal as well as commercial needs. It comes with luxurious and premium comfort features like a potent air-conditioning system, power windows, central locking, and leather seats. Along with that, they also offer the option of customising the truck as per the customer's needs.

The exterior of the Mahindra Bolero camper has somewhat been revamped to fit the dimensions of the car. While the front is fairly similar to the Bolero, the new wider grille and fenders make it look a lot more muscular. That said, the headlights and rest of the body are pretty much similar to the earlier models. The rear side of the vehicle, however, has got some major changes. First of all, the rear seating capacity has been reduced to fit a cargo box. Nevertheless, since this is a camper truck, the cargo box makes more sense than adding more seating capacity.

Due to all such changes, Mahindra had to make certain changes to the suspension of the car to ensure better driving quality. Stiffer suspensions make it easier for the car to absorb shocks and bumps. Along with that, it makes for much more comfortable ride quality. Such a versatile suspension system also makes this car perfect for both off-roading as well as city rides. Along with that, you also get power steering making it more controllable at both high and lower speeds.

The Mahindra Bolero camper comes with a powerful yet efficient m2DiCR 4 cylinder 2.5 Litre Turbocharged engine. With a maximum torque of 200 Nm @ 1400-2200 rpm and a maximum power of 56 Kw @ 3200 rpm, this engine is really the best in class. It further allows you to add a payload of 1000 Kgs on an average on the cargo box and carry it safely. The engine also comes with BS-VI emission compliance which makes the car a much better option than the others in the industry. All that said, you can get a mileage of 17 KM/L on the diesel variant of this car.

What helps this car stand out in the market is the fact that it comes at a much more reasonable price than its competitors, without compromising on comfort, ride quality, and any features that you might find in other cars of the same segment. Along with that, you also get customisable options and a hoard of colours to choose from.
