The company sold 1,00,686 units in FY 2011 – 12 with sales rising 21 percent for the Bolero compared to FY 2010 – 11.
Pravin Shah, Chief Executive, Automotive Division, Mahindra & Mahindra said, “The fact that Bolero has sold more than 1 lakh units in FY 2011-12 signifies the confidence customers have on the brand. Over the years Bolero has evolved with changing lifestyle aspirations of customers resulting in an exceptional CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) of 26 percent.
