DC Design has given the Mahindra Bolero a makeover,
which, though isn't as radical as some of its other projects, certainly has a
price tag to make you give it a second look. The Bolero Inceptor as it is
called costs a whopping INR 17.5 lakhs, ex-Showroom.
The front sees a redesigned grille with a metal
applique and circular headlights with projector lens. The Bolero Inceptor also
gets a beefier bumper which wouldn't look out of place in an off-road focused
SUV, and handles on the bonnet. The sides see larger alloy wheels with
all-terrain tyres, Hummer-inspired ORVMs with a chrome finish and new side
steps. The wheel arches are also pronounced to give the Inceptor a lot of
street presence.

Towards the rear, the taillight clusters get a
thorough makeover, and like the front, DC Design has provided a pair of
handles. While the interior changes aren't detailed, we notice that the
second-row seats and third-row benches have been replaced with captains chairs.
Mechanical changes on the DC Inceptor are unlikely.
The Bolero Power Plus is powered by a 1.5-liter mHawk three-cylinder diesel
engine capable of 70 bhp and 195 Nm of torque. Paired to a 5-speed manual
gearbox, the engine sends the drive to the rear wheels.
The Mahindra Bolero Power Plus is priced between INR
6.94 lakhs to INR 8.31 lakhs, ex-Showroom, New Delhi. Features on the top-end
ZLX include a Bluetooth-enabled audio system, a digital instrument cluster with
a driver information system, engine immobilizer, micro-hybrid (auto start-stop
system), AC and heater, power steering, front and rear power windows, central
locking, keyless entry, a rear washer and wiper, a 12V charging socket and a 3
years/1 lakh km warranty.
