Mahindra has silently updated the Bolero with a passenger airbag to comply with the new norms requiring all vehicles to be fitted with dual airbags. The model previously only came with a driver airbag.
The addition of a passenger side airbag has come at a cost with prices going up by ₹ 14,000-16,000 depending on the variant. The Bolero is currently priced between ₹ 8.85 lakh-9.86 lakh (ex-showroom, Mumbai).
With the addition of an airbag to the passenger side of the dashboard, Mahindra has also tweaked the interiors slightly. Previously, the Bolero came with a chunky grab handle on the passenger side dashboard. That, however, has now been replaced with a regular dashboard panel and a new faux wood garnish on the passenger side, similar to the wood-finish on the central console around the AC vents and music system.
These are, of course, all worthy and wonderful resolutions. But I gave up smoking years ago, don’t eat red meat now and wake up early anyway. Maturity is that time in your life when you can make no more new year resolutions. Not because you are perfect and have no bad habits, but because you’d like to keep the remaining bad habits, thank you very much.
