Mahindra Bolero Neo vs Maruti Suzuki Brezza: which should you buy?
The Maruti Suzuki Brezza starts at ₹7.40L against the Mahindra Bolero Neo's ₹8.99L ex-showroom Delhi, so it is ₹1.59L cheaper to get into.
They run together up to ₹10.79L, where the Bolero Neo tops out. Past that only the Brezza has anything left to sell you, up to ₹13.55L.
Only one of them takes the whole party: the Bolero Neo seats 7, the Brezza 5.

Same money, which car?
Take ₹10.79L to both showrooms and you come out with the Bolero Neo N10 Opt at ₹10.79L or the Brezza VXi at ₹10.61L, the Brezza leaving ₹0.18L of that in your pocket.

Our take
Keep the ₹0.18L: the Bolero Neo N10 Opt only adds small touches like touchscreen (9" against 7"), rear parking camera and cruise control. Nothing there changes the car.
- Only the Mahindra Bolero Neo seats 7, worth knowing if you need the space
- Also on the Bolero Neo N10 Opt: touchscreen (9" against 7"), rear parking camera and cruise control, and some minor trim beyond that
- Going to the Bolero Neo N10 Opt, you give up airbags (6 against 2), electronic stability control and wireless CarPlay / Android Auto, which the Brezza VXi keeps
- Choose the Maruti Suzuki Brezza VXi if
- You would rather keep the ₹0.18L than pay for kit you will not miss
- Choose the Mahindra Bolero Neo N10 Opt if
- You live on your phone in the car and want the screens to keep up
