Mahindra puts sticker price on work-ready new Bolero MaXX bakkie
Bolero MaXX, in its most basic form, becomes South Africa's newest most affordable proper one-ton bakkie.
Mahindra unveiled the pricing for the Bolero MaXX Pik-Up, the latest work-ready version of the Bolero, at the Nampo Agricultural Expo in May. This new model offers three distinct variants, ranging from 1 300kg to 1 700kg payload capacity. The base model, City 1.3, starts at R199,000, making it South Africa's most affordable proper bakkie.
The MaXX, introduced in India in 2024, lacks some amenities compared to the original Bolero, but this is offset by its lower price. The City 1.3, with a 1 300kg payload, measures 4 800mm in length and features a 2.5 litre turbodiesel engine producing 52kW/200Nm. The 1.5 variant, with a 1 500kg payload, carries a slightly longer loadbox and a slightly more powerful 60kW/220Nm engine.
Finally, the heavy-duty 1.7 variant, with a 1 700kg capacity, boasts the longest loadbox and the most powerful engine output. All variants come standard with power steering and rear-wheel drive, but only the 1.5 and 1.7 include air-conditioning, bottle holders, a cooled glovebox, rear parking sensors, and anti-lock brakes. All MaXX models are backed by a four-year/120 000 km warranty, with a service plan available as an additional cost.
