Mahindra Bolero Mileage
₹8.49 Lakh to ₹9.99 Lakhex-showroom
The Bolero's 1.5 litre diesel carries an ARAI rating of 16 kmpl across all four trims. That is modest, but the low kerb weight and diesel torque help it hold that figure on the open road. Heavy loads, seven passengers and stop-start traffic will pull the real number down. Match the figure to each Bolero trim if you want to compare.

Mileage is how far the Bolero travels on one litre of fuel (or one kg of CNG). A bigger number means you spend less on fuel. Carmakers quote an ARAI lab figure; in real driving you get a bit less, so both are shown below.

Mahindra Bolero mileage: common questions
What mileage does the Bolero give?
The ARAI rating is 16 kmpl on the diesel manual. Real-world figures depend on load, road and how you drive.
Is the Bolero good for long highway runs?
Yes. The diesel torque and light body let it cruise steadily, though 16 kmpl means fuel stops come sooner than in a smaller car.
Does a full load hurt the Bolero's mileage?
It does. Carrying seven people and luggage makes the engine work harder, so expect the figure to drop below the rated 16 kmpl.
