Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Mahindra Bolero
- Looks rugged: Its boxy proportions and muscular design elements can be recognised from a distance
- Capable enough: The rear-wheel-drive setup and a torque-y diesel engine allows it to challenge rough terrains
- Powerful AC cools the cabin very quickly
Mahindra XEV 9S
- Striking Design: Looks premium and modern thanks to its lighting setup.
- Feature Rich: Gets all the features you can expect from a car of this price. No major misses.
- Highway Friendly: 500 km of real world range is more than enough for intercity commutes.

Mahindra Bolero
- Bare bones: Except for a small touchscreen, it does not get any premium features
- Bumpy ride: Being a ladder-on-frame SUV, the ride quality comes with a lot of body roll
Mahindra XEV 9S
- Sub-par Interior Quality: Not a premium as expected
- Low Boot Space: Barely any space left when all three rows are up.
