Mahindra Vision S (Bolero Neo Replacement) Expected Launch Timeline

The fact that Mahindra chose to put on street-friendly tyres on the Vision S tells us that this is going to be a soft-roader, i.e., a front-wheel drive instead of a rear-wheel drive as the Bolero Neo. However, the new NU IQ platform looks like it may offer most of the advantages you expect from a body-on-frame vehicle.

The Bolero Neo went on sale in 2015 as TUV 300. It failed to fly off the shelves and Mahindra banked on the immensely successful Bolero brand and rebadged it as Bolero Neo. This happened in 2021, when the car also got its mid-life update.

MAHINDRA VISION S EST. LAUNCH TIMELINE
TUV 300	Launch 2015
Mid Life Update	+6 yrs
Bolero Neo	Launch 2021
Generation Update	+6 yrs
Vision S	Est. Launch 2027

This suggests that the Bolero Neo has a half life of 6 years and a full product lifecycle of 12 years. If you add 6 more years to 2021 (the last major update for Bolero Neo), you get 2027. And that is when we expect the Vision S to go on sale — sometime in 2027.
