The short videos reveal that the Bolero Neo will feature a redesigned front facia with a 6-slat vertical chrome grille, redesigned headlamps with horizontal LED DRLs, reworked bumper with refreshed fog lamps. The side profile of the SUV remains largely unchanged except for a new set of dual 5-spoke alloy wheels finished in silver tone. However, it misses out on the roof-rails, but the brand could offer them as an option.
The interior layout of the new Bolero Neo will be largely similar to the older TUV300, except for some minor changes. While it is likely to get a new steering wheel and infotainment system with Android Auto & Apple Carplay connectivity, the teaser video confirms the incorporation of new beige-colored textured seats, a rear-center armrest for the second row, and a new instrument cluster with colored MIDthat seems borrowed from the second-generation Mahindra Thar.
Beneath the bonnet, the Bolero Neo is expected to employ the BS6-compliant version of the TUV300’s 1.5-litre, 3-cylinder diesel engine that provides 100PS of maximum power and 240Nm of peak torque. It is likely to be available with a 5-speed manual and AMT gearbox choices that will drive the rear wheels of the body-on-frame SUV.
While the brand is yet to share its launch date, it is expected to arrive by the end of this month. Rumors are also suggesting that it will be offered in three variants, namely N4, N8, and N10. Expect it to be priced between Rs 8 lakh to Rs 12 lakh (ex-showroom).
