2012 Mahindra Bolero m2Dicr v/s Tata Sumo Gold-Comparison

The all new 2012 Tata Sumo Gold v/s new 2012 Mahindra Bolero m2Dicr


Mahindra Bolero and the Tata Sumo are the only two yet available budget value for money SUV's in India.They two offer a great functionality and still priced at a good tag.When we say about the Sumo,it is big,spacious,powerful and got almost many good features like the Bolero.But the only thing which is still not up to the mark in the Sumo is that it's built quality hasn't improved much still.Tata has given a minor improvement in the quality of the plastics used,but the fit and finish is still not up to the mark.


Tata has made a significant change in the 2012 Sumo.In the front,it's styled like the Victa ,but there is a big 'Gold' badge above the grille.The new Sumo Gold has a 2956 cc CR4 engine which delivers a good 60-62 kw of power @3000 rpm.The huge engine delivers a good pick up and pulling.The higher the cubic capacity,the more the power and the fuel burning.The Sumo Gold has a 250 nm of torque @1600-2000 rpm.The engine has got a good torque and therefore it is peppy.On the same way,the Sumo Gold is also not bad in features.It has got power steering,four door power windows,front fog lamps,central locking,rear defogger,AC,CD player and other specs too.These features are available in the top end version i.e, Tata Sumo Gold GX.The Sumo Gold is available in both 7 seater and 9 seater.

The next guy is the new Bolero.As we all know,Bolero is the vehicle which made Mahindra to 'rise'  to bigger standards and now even Mahindra starts its's Scorpio production in the US.So Mahindra hasn't forgot to give it's beloved a major change.The new 2012 Bolero comes with a 2523 cc m2Dicr engine which is the same in the base model Scorpio.The engine delivers a decent 46.3 kw (63 bhp) of power @3200 rpm.The engine has got 195 nm of torque @1500-1800 rpm where that of the Sumo is 1600-2000.Therefore even the Sumo has more power it is not as peppy as the Bolero.But when it comes to power and pulling,the Sumo Gold wins.The new Bolero has a got a new digital driver information system.The fit and finish is also better than the Sumo but it is not as good as the old Bolero (the very first one,2002 model,where Mahindra built it like a 'tank').Also Mahindra has added a lot more features in the new Bolero.The new Bolero has got a added rear defogger along with a washer and wiper.There is also a rear AC vent so that the rear passengers do not need to suffocate..The other features include power steering,four door power windows,central locking along with remote,CD player with integrated stereo system,digital driver information system,rear defogger,rear washer and AC.When it comes to specs the Mahindra Bolero ZLX is better than the Sumo Gold.

The new 2012 Tata Sumo Gold is available at a price range of Rs.5,90,000 - Rs.7,40,000 while the new 2012 Mahindra Bolero is available at a price range of Rs.6,18,000-Rs.6,96,000
