Expert opinion and recommendation

The Force Gurkha Diesel Soft Top 4x2 is a formidable off-roader that excels in its core competency of tackling harsh terrain with ease. While it may not be the most refined or comfortable vehicle for everyday city driving, its strengths lie in its ability to handle challenging off-road conditions. The 2.6-litre diesel engine, although not overly powerful with 90 bhp, delivers ample torque to navigate steep inclines and rough terrain. However, the lack of an automatic gearbox and the somewhat cumbersome gear shifts might be a deterrent for some. The cabin is notably quieter than its closest rival, the Mahindra Thar, especially at highway speeds, but it still exhibits some body roll and vibration issues, particularly in the second gear. Overall, its a great choice for those who prioritize off-road capability and are willing to compromise on some comfort and convenience features.

Latest Updates

Recent news and announcements

The pricing of the Force Gurkha 4x2 is speculated to be closer to Rs 15 lakh, which is significantly lower than the current 3-door Gurkha priced at Rs 16.75 lakh. This price reduction is anticipated to make the vehicle more competitive in the market, especially against the Mahindra Thar 4x2, which is priced between Rs 11.35 lakh and Rs 14.10 lakh. I think this pricing strategy could be a game-changer for Force Motors.
June 6, 2024
Force Motors is preparing to launch a new 4x2 variant of the 3-door Gurkha, aimed at making the vehicle more affordable and appealing to a broader audience. This variant will retain the existing 140hp, 2.6-litre diesel engine but will lack the 4x4 drivetrain, manual transfer case, and differential locks. This move is expected to reduce the price, potentially to around Rs 15 lakh, making it a direct rival to the Mahindra Thar 4x2. I think this could be a smart move to boost sales, as many buyers dont need the full off-road capabilities.
June 6, 2024
Force Motors decision to introduce a 4x2 variant of the Gurkha is driven by the success of Mahindras Thar RWD model, which has seen significant sales due to tax concessions for sub-four-meter vehicles. By offering a more affordable and city-friendly version, Force aims to capture a larger market share. I think this is a well-thought-out strategy to expand their customer base.
June 5, 2024
The upcoming Force Gurkha 4x2 is expected to maintain the same feature set as the current 3-door model, including a 7 touchscreen, power windows, and a tyre pressure monitoring system. However, there will be no additional feature or cosmetic updates. This strategy is similar to Mahindras approach with the Thar, where the RWD variants have become nearly 50% of the sales. I believe this simplicity will help keep costs down and make the vehicle more attractive to city drivers.
June 5, 2024
The engine performance of the Force Gurkha 4x2 will remain unchanged, with the 2.6-litre diesel engine producing 140 PS and 320 Nm of torque, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. This ensures that the vehicle retains its robust power delivery, even without the 4x4 system. I believe this will still provide a satisfying driving experience for urban users.

Price

Pricing details and changes

The Force Gurkha Diesel Soft Top 4x2 is priced competitively in the Indian market, with the ex-showroom price starting at around Rs. 16.75 lakh. When you factor in the on-road costs, including taxes, registration, and insurance, the price can go up to around Rs. 19-20 lakh, depending on the state and local taxes. This pricing positions the Gurkha as a viable alternative to the Mahindra Thar and other off-road focused SUVs. Given its robust build, improved suspension, and enhanced off-road capabilities, the Gurkha offers good value for money, especially for those who frequently venture into rugged terrains.

Mileage

Fuel efficiency information

The mileage of the Force Gurkha Diesel Soft Top 4x2 is a crucial consideration for potential buyers. With a reported user mileage of around 12 kmpl, it is relatively fuel-efficient given its size and off-road capabilities. However, this mileage can vary based on driving conditions, with city driving likely to yield lower figures compared to highway driving. For those concerned about running costs, the Gurkhas diesel engine and decent fuel economy make it a reasonable choice, especially if you plan to use it for both off-road adventures and occasional city commutes.

About

General information and overview

The Force Gurkha Diesel Soft Top 4x2 is a rugged and capable off-road SUV that has garnered attention for its raw, unbridled performance. Powered by a 2.6-litre, four-cylinder diesel engine producing 90 bhp and 250 Nm of torque, it is mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. The vehicle features a full-time 4x4 system, although the 4x2 mode is available for lighter off-road conditions. The Gurkha boasts improved suspension and steering, reducing the turning radius and enhancing overall handling. Inside, the cabin is quieter and more insulated than its predecessor, with features like power windows and an all-black interior theme. However, it lacks modern refinements and automatic transmission, making it more suited for those who prioritize off-road prowess over everyday comfort and convenience. The recent updates have addressed several shortcomings, making the Gurkha a compelling choice for adventurous buyers.
