What the B8 Diesel MT costs on the road
The price above is the sticker. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the B8 Diesel MT comes to ₹10,43,310 on the road in Itanagar and ₹11,69,585 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹1,26,275 of what you pay for the identical car. Of the 25 states we can price this variant in, Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest and Karnataka highest. You pay it where you live, so take this as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as a way to save money.
Comprehensive own-damage cover is on top of both figures: it has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer, the cover value and your no-claim bonus, so no honest single number exists for it. Budget for it from real quotes.

The full story
At ₹9.99L ex-showroom Delhi this is the dearest of the Bolero's 4 variants, ₹30,000 over the B6 Opt Diesel MT beneath it. B8 is sold this one way, as the Diesel 5-speed manual. There is no trim above B8: money spent past this point buys powertrain, not equipment.

Mahindra Bolero B8: the questions people ask
Price, on-road total, engine and what this trim goes without.
- What is the price of the Mahindra Bolero B8 Diesel MT?
- ₹9.99L, ex-showroom Delhi. That makes it the dearest of the 4, ₹30,000 above the B6 Opt Diesel MT.
- What is the on-road price of the Mahindra Bolero B8 Diesel MT?
- Expect ₹10,43,310 in Itanagar and ₹11,69,585 in Bengaluru. Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so the identical car costs ₹1,26,275 more at one end of the country than the other. That is the sticker plus road tax, registration and the rest of the charges, across the 25 states we have verified. It does not include comprehensive own-damage cover, which every insurer prices differently.
- Which engine and gearbox does the Mahindra Bolero B8 Diesel MT have?
- The Diesel, 76 PS, with the 5-speed manual. The maker's figure for it is 16 km/l.
- What features does the Mahindra Bolero B8 Diesel MT get?
- The kit worth naming on this trim: Wheel type (Alloy), Touchscreen (7"), Leatherette upholstery, Speakers (4), Rear wiper & washer and Rear defogger.
- Is there anything above the B8 on the Mahindra Bolero?
- No. B8 is the top of the Bolero range, so money spent past this point buys a different engine or gearbox rather than more equipment.
- Is the B8 the right Bolero to buy?
- That depends on where the value sits across the whole range rather than on this trim alone, and we work it out variant by variant on our Mahindra Bolero which-variant page. The short version: pay for a step only where the kit it adds is kit you would actually use.
