The Bolero is one of our highest selling SUVs and has been the first UV (Utility Vehicle) to be certified as BS-VI ready by the ICAT."
Mahindra has already sold more than 12 lakh units of the Bolero in India and in fact is the highest sold UV in India. We don't expect any design changes on the BS6 variant of the Bolero, but we do expect it to get some changes to the exterior.
