They need to market it as Gurkha, not Force

[@TheLazyWandererMys]

I think this is the most honest review of the new Gurkha I have seen. In many cases the Gurkha is hyped up and some just dismiss it saying its not cut out to be on sale in 2024. And here you are calling a spade, a spade. I completely agree with you, it is not for everyone and I think none of the previous Gurkhas were too. They always were targeted at a very very niche set of buyers, ones that could look past a lot of it's flaws. TBH I have been a big fan of the vehicle from the Trax days, even before the 4x4 was made available to the junta. So my views on it are very biased, I love it and provided I could splurge the asking price, I would buy it in a heartbeat regardless of all the niggles it WILL have. This is a very honest machine, it doesn't pretend to be anything or doesn't try to please anyone, and like you said a proper old school SUV. One of the things it gets over the older 3 door are proper power adjustable OVRMs. Force should offer the 5 door with a reclining/folding bench mounted further back and ditch the captain seats in the last rowr, at least as an option. While the boot space is low, I don't think its any worse than a 7 seater SUV. You can still stow soft bags behind the rear seats and may be a carry on between the seats. You will just have to remove them while getting in and out of the vehicle, something one does in the 3 door also. But yes, folding jump seats like on the Innova would have made life more easier. Does the 3 door also get rear AC blower? I think the least they could have done is color matched the unit to the headliner. They have used a lot of parts already in use like mirror controls, shift-on-fly knob, PW switches etc. but that is where the cost cutting comes in, the Gurkha just doesn't have the numbers to justify the additional investment, I don't think Force is even ready for high numbers as Mahindra. One thing I want to know in your full review, can the 2024 Gurkha crawl as well as the 2021 on steep inclines? (not the same as Force had arranged this time) I have driven the older one in some steep incline and I was surprised how good it was. I just hope it hasn't lost that while upping the power. All said and done, a very detailed and well put together review. 👍

True

[@evoIndia]

Yes. At least the knee room could have been better.

[@kcobmsoakley]

Yes, Captain seats should be offered as an option as well as an option to buy one as a 4 or 5 seater. If the Defender 130 can be bought as a 5 seater from the factory, then I guess, Force can do it too. If the floor mountings for the seats are similar between the middle row and the third row, many people will start doing this mod. Accessories like a cargo barrier would be great for outdoorsy people who travel long distances with large pets.

[@PavanKumar-bx9pg]

What is stopping Force Motors to improvise and give tough competition to other companies like Tata and Mahindra. The force motor engineers and designers just have to take a ride in Tata Nexon and Mahindra XUV 700 and they will know where they are lagging. Why they need so much time to change or improvise the things I really don’t understand. On one side they are saying its Indian G Wagon but the staring wheel is still like Tempo Traveller. Why don’t the Force motors involve the common people and get their review. Like the Toyota did before manufacturing Toyota Etios. Why some of the Indian Auto makers force the people to buy what they give and don’t give what they want. The management has to come out of its commercial vehicles mind set and concentrate on winning the market like Tata and Mahindra are doing.

I’m extremely happy to see that they have improved things by listening to critics . Like engine “power upgrade” with an option to economise when you want . Lovely idea. ”suspension arms” redesigned for ground clearance. digital front console and an info system with google maps BTW(Toyota still needs this upgrade) The issues still linger on non adjustable middle row seat back angle. Why can’t they just swap the middle row and the back row exactly like the Innova crysta ? It’s an extremely convenient setting. If I buy this 5door I’ll surly get it done as an after market thing… captain seats in the middle and 50:50 flat bed seat as the last-row with detachable and foldable option . Exactly like Citron C3Aircross . ❤❤ I’m extremely happy to see them work on the product and upgrade it with mindful inputs.

It wouldn't be a surprise if this sells in good numbers, because whatever practicality it was lacking in 3 door version, it's now all there. A very good point has been mentioned that the seats are just bolted on with 4-6 bolts & in some time after market accessories shops will come up with ways to readjust the seats in order to increase legroom or put in better seats altogether. Cruise control would really have gotten this in with the competition, but who knows maybe in the next update. In any case cruise control is only used on expressway & no sane person would take such a high GC vehicle with reportedly less brake bites on an expressway. This has become a lot more desirable & will sell in good numbers. Awesome review though..❤

Excellent review.

No. You shouldn't use 4X4 modes on tarmac (roads) as it would wind up your transfer case and cause huge problems. 4X4 modes are only for use on surfaces where traction is low

If Force Motors can get a version with folding seats in the second and third row, along with an automatic transmission, I'd buy this the very same day. Apart from that, this SUV is simply amazing.

[@unitedmusiccompany5650]

Probably the only and Last SUV with character and Charm of an True SUV. Loved the Gurkha. And the engine sound especially the Turbo spool !!Pheww.. But Force should look into the interiors and make it more desirable. Hope to get one soon..

Updated interiors... job for the next refresh

Automatic is not great for off-roading it just feels lifeless while driving, manual is lovee ❤❤❤

[@evoIndia]

Don't agree....off-roading is easier with an automatic

[@sirishch]

Beg to differ. Ive driven automatics off-road and it is as capable while being easier to drive

[@yellowflash511]

If only this had a good automatic transmission I would've bought it yesterday. I LOVE the Jimny but I'm just too tall for it (6'8") so this is perfect for me it looks even better IMHO but no auto! It's not a sports car that I wanna shift myself man an auto is a must.

[@sirishch]

Hopefully an auto will come soon

Very nice, this my type of 4x4 ,simple and durable

[@RiskyAsh]

Three differential locks? Is there a central diff lock as well??

[@sirishch]

When you engage the 4-Low centre diff locks

[@bohemianonwheel]

Gurkha is for hardcore offroad and the vehicle will not betray you there. I am having the 3D one and would love to explore and change to the new 5D one.

I’ve heard stories of its solid dependability

The last of the proper old school SUV

[@babasdiary230]

3 door is the best as 5 door lacks in 2nd row leg room it is a total waste unless someone decide to remove the 2nd row and use it as a cargo space or shift the 3rd row captain seats to the front and leave the rear for ample cargo space. 3 door is good for off road maneuverability, managing in tight traffic and parking spaces.

[@evoIndia]

The space is tight but not unusable.

[@sirishch]

That's why they are offering both the 3 and 5 door with all the engine upgrades. pick what you like

[@The.Supreme911]

1 year ago ,the share price of force motor was 1200 ,todays its 9500+ .
