Why The Mahindra Pik Up Shouldn't Be Brushed Aside

Image
  You wouldn't think it, but the   Mahindra Pik Up   has quite a lot to write home about and it's one of those vehicles that the South African buying public is beginning to take seriously as an alternative option in the bakkie market. It might not be the most gorgeous bakkie available locally, but it is most certainly not atrocious and its rugged looks might need an acquired taste, but that's not what this vehicle is all about. ​ ​ So perhaps in the past, we stuck our noses in the air and said "What? A Mahindra? I will never...". It is of Indian origin after all too, but if there is one thing this bakkie maker has learned it was to listen to the feedback. Not only that, earlier in May 2015, the automaker opened up a new vehicle assembly facility in Durban. The new vehicle assembly facility for Mahindra vehicles is located in the Dube TradePort Special Economic Zone (SEZ) next to the King Shaka Airport in KwaZulu-Natal.

New 2021 Mahindra Bolero Update

Mahindra is working on an update for the Bolero which will be launched in India in June 2021. A single image that surfaced on the web revealed the minor changes that the model is slated to receive soon. Under the hood, the new Mahindra Bolero will be powered by the same 1.5-litre, three-cylinder diesel engine from the outgoing model. This BS6-compliant motor is tuned to produce 75bhp and 210Nm of torque. Transmission options are limited to a five-speed manual unit.   Changes to the exterior of the 2021 Mahindra Bolero include a dual-tone paint job that features a red body colour and a silver colour treatment for the grille and front bumper.    Also on offer are minor revisions to the headlamps. The leaked image showcased a lower variant of the SUV, and hence it has missed out on features such as body-coloured ORVMs and fog lights. Changes to the interior, if any, remain unknown at the moment.  . . . Article sourced from https://www.carwale.com/
