What owners and testers say

Independent evidence only. Never the maker’s own marketing.

+ Body-on-frame construction that reviewers say shrugs off road surfaces that unsettle a crossover+ A mechanical locking differential and cruise control on every variant, which is rare at this money+ The 1.5 litre diesel is easy to drive in town and frugal with it− One star from Global NCAP for adults and one for children, on an unstable passenger cell− Two airbags is the most any trim offers, and there is no stability control or traction control− No seat belts for the third row
6 more things owners and testers say
+ A roomy, likeable cabin with genuine space in the first two rows+ Suspension tuned for bad roads: supple and predictable if you stay near the speed limits− The three cylinder diesel runs out of puff at the top end, and expressway pace is hard work− A vibrating gear lever, and hard scratchy plastics throughout a rudimentary interior− Noticeable body roll through corners, and a bouncy ride once the speeds rise− Small electrical annoyances reported by owners, including a roof light that stops working at random

Why there is no overall score

Scores are our reading of published, independent evidence, not the manufacturer's, and we deliberately publish no single overall rating: a car can be excellent on safety and weak on resale, and one number would hide that. How we score, and how makers can respond.

Every one of the 5 Bolero Neo variants on sale is a diesel, from ₹9.06L for the N4 Diesel MT, ex-showroom. It is manual only, so if you were after an automatic, this one does not offer it.
