These vehicles are not for everyone. They are niche segment wherein the buyer will know its benefits. People who wants to keep for a longer period will buy. Tempo traveller is not a cheap brand. Time tested vehicle launched and extremely knowledgeable review given. Tks. Eventhough I do not own I am a fan of Gurkha..

It's a good vehicle.. I nearly bought it in 2022 but then Jimny was announced. My only issue with the previous model was of ground clearance from the front and I wanted a solid front diff. I like small and light weight 4x4 but Gurkha is an exception ( far better than THAR). Planning to add this beast next year in my stable after reviews from genuine people 😉😉😉.

Wonderful Review 😄. Completely authentic and genuine because it is reviewed by a 2021 Gurkha Owner 😘. Recently I had a test drive of 3-Door Gurkha BS6. I can completely relate to what you have said about the steering and the clutch. Clutch is soft and steering is buttery smooth. I can say this because few weeks ago I also test drove Bolero Neo that comes with similar power-assisted hydraulic steering and I found its steering bit hard. But on the contrary @ <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1160">19:20</a> I found the gear shifting bit notchy, though in your video it seems smooth and I'm happy to see it. Also another flaw I noticed is that gear shifter is bit short, with armrest in use, I needed to put my ankle down to hold the gear knob for shifting. Rest all it was a fantastic experience. 🤗😘

Please consider our suggestions for the next face-lift, if any: 1. Middle and rear seats should have been tumble-down/foldable/adjustable (for sleeping and luggage). 2. ‘F’ logo of force on the front grill, and Gurkha badging elsewhere in a suitable place. 3. Day-time running lights could be a little classier. 4. A better infotainment screen with Apple Car Play/Android Auto/Built-in Map etc. 5. Steering mount phone and infotainment controls. 6. Although alloys have been upsized, the previous alloys (though smaller in size) were more appealing. Please bring the same design for the upsized wheels. 7. Petrol Engine. 8. One more gear for high-way cruising. There were many people like me who wanted to buy one but disappointed after seeing it brought in a hurry. I went to Ladakh last year, all the way from Kerala, in my Gypsy. I thought of buying the 5 door Gurkha for my second trip. Now I am waiting to see if any face-lift/upgradation comes in.

i don't understand what will harm FORCE Motors to put steering mounted controls and redesign Gurkha steering wheel to make it standout from their own products ? This isn't commercial Traveller right ? + I would say removing middle row seat and putting 2 Force captain seats and make it best 6 seater Off Roader
@IndianOverlander4 ай бұрын
I agree with you! I will be making a video about things i did not like. Plan to talk about the seating arrangement and steering size. In previous videos of mine also i had spoken about the steering being a bit too oversized. Was hoping FM would have changed in the 2024 Gurkha.
@SushilKPingua4 ай бұрын
Firstly the Gurkha as a breed is meant for traversing off-roads where prime concern of driver is comfortably enjoying the rough terrain to the best of machine's ability. "Gurkha is never meant to be a parallel of compass or scorpio-n or safari/harrier or thar or jimny". Gurkha owners never care for the bells and whistles, and half of the people buying the new Gurkha would be those who have previously owned a Gurkha or being in close acquaintance to a Gurkha owner. Seating arrangement of new Gurkha 5D is aimed at family segment where ladies can sit comfortably with the toddlers in middle row, flat bench seats help kids sleep well with their head on mothers lap and body straight on long seat. If captain seats are placed on middle row it would create more difficultly for passengers to enter the flat bench 3rd row seat, and every time the middle row passenger would have to alight, fold up seat and make way.
@hookgaming.4 ай бұрын
@@SushilKPingua bhai jaan here are my points as per your views : 1: You say Gurkha is meant for traversing off-roads where driver enjoys bla bla bla .... Its all about ease of controls while driving , i kept Gypsy for 9 years and travelled to whichever place you can imagine, so i know what Real Off roaders wish for some basic add on facilities (as per modern standards) this isn't 1980's time. Taking your calls without taking hands off your steering wheel , changing tracks , navigation commands.... everything helps with help of just 4 buttons.... if you are paying 20 lakhs for a vehicle... i won't digest that these basic things are kept off by company coz price isn't 8-9 lakhs right? 2) My other concern was look of steering wheel , this isn't distinguishing a personal vehicle owner from a Tempo Traveller driver . If i am willing to pay 20+ for my personal vehicle , at least give it uniqueness . Bolero Pickup (Commercial) and Bolero-Neo, Thar , Scorpio-N ( all personal segments) have different steering wheel. I hope you get my point here. 3) I agree at extent why middle seat is 3 seater mainly to utilize it but do families travelling with toddlers go to off roading with toddler inside sleeping ? Like it's not going well lol . When i am driving the vehicle i would require minimum effort and focus on 3 extra things ( calls , music , navigation ) and main attention and focus on driving with pleasure... Now no way i mean to say Gurkha is bad vehicle. I loved the 5 door version as it improved every area that 2021 version needed improvement. My points are on the overall 20 lakh segment vehicle because nowadays even if i am offroad lover and go with Gurkha 5 door , trust me i won't be going offroading every weekend but majority of time i am cruising in city or highways , all these bells and whistles make it more "complete" + steering mount controls would hardly cost 10k rupees not more for company . Things i loved in Gurkha , New instrument cluster , finally i a refreshing thing to see after Bare Bones 90's meters. Happy Motoring

@@IndianOverlander Absolutely loved your content with 3 door , the shops you showed for additional damping.... i referred it to my friend to get his Jimny done. I had Gypsy for 9 years and sold it recently , was hoping big from Gurkha 5 door and it's great vehicle to be honest . But as a buyer i would wait for Thar 5 door so i can have a proper comparison and decision to purchase. As family is of 4 members only , the 4 door Gurkha is always great considering space it offers , that's why i suggested Force can maybe launch 6 seat version (all captain seats) but that was just my thought to the sales person at Force Motors....i went to see it in person on Saturday and test drove it , every point about drivability is spot on. Loved the fact we can cruise on this as i am 2.5 hours away from mountains. But then i thought let's wait for Thar Armada first.

Since you had very beautiful designed and developed your own Gurkha I will like to suggest you few more accessories. 1 in Mercedes G Wagon there an rubber strip that runs from both the sides from start to the end those strips on Gurkha will make it more premium like G wagon. 2 on the ineos grenade bonnet there is a plate stating powered by BMW similar plate of similar size and location can be put on the Gurkha bonnet stating powered by Mercedes-Benz. 3 painting the brake calipers and rear brake drum in red colour. 4) writing force in red colour on the front grill corner in very small letter

Force should swap the bench seats and last row captain seats. One can go in last row through the middle row captain seats. The last bench seats then should be placed all the way behind for more knee room in second and third row. The last row bench should be foldable in case of less passengers and you want to keep luggage there. If all seats are occupied you can use roof rack for luggage. That way it will be more practical if Force wants to sell it as lifestyle plus family vehicle

You should do reviews of other well known SUVs (in Indian market) in similar fashion, I mean focussing on mechanicals. Most reviewers do analysis on overall exteriors, interiors, but not on mechanicals which is most important aspect of a vehicle, considering the fact that average Indian won't buy two vehicles - one for regular use n one for long rides... off-roading, for hills, snow, sand etc. Major reason why ppl take their popular SUVs on mountains... for off-roading n get stuck in the middle of nowhere. Here sound n sturdy mechanicals play a very crucial role apart from skills of the person behind steering wheel.

Absolutely right. 100% right. I tested the 3 door version today. - The engine is lazy. Specially when the power mode is off. - The whole car vibrates and turns super noisy when you accelerate. - I could feel a strange vibration on the brake pedal. Besides, bad uninspiring braking. - The gear stick with its long throws is placed so badly that it almost touches the charging socket (even with a tiny cable plugged in). Besides, I had to stretch to change gears. Silly design. - Door rubber was hanging off the frame. For a car that showed only 2000 kms on the odometer. Poor quality and something that has been seen so often on the Gurkha. - No one is talking about mileage. Even the dealer’s staff gave me false figures. Sorry, but I am not convinced by these reviews and I am not going for a Gurkha. I waited for 2 years to see if Force would make this a city car too, but they couldn’t. I don’t live in the hills and I currently have a booking for a Scorpio N Z4 4x4. I will proceed with that.

Insurance is a tricky issue. Depends on dealer to dealer. Where are you based? You can ask your dealer/ sales advisor about this point. To my knowledge all you need to do is ask which insurance companies cashless service the dealer accepts and then get a quote yourself from that company itself. You can even go through the dealer for getting the insurance for peace of mind.

Can the lower suspension arm of the 2024 Gurkha be fitted on the 2018 Gurkha? Just as in the 2018 Gurkha, the steering rack is located at the front, which is rather a vulnerable position. The steering rack should have been place behind the engine for optimum protection. Another important issue that has not been addressed is the absence of a water channel on top of the front windshield. During heavy rain, rain water would flow over the entire windshield causing visual obstruction especially going downhill. Even with wipers in fast wiping, its of no help. These are the small problems with my Gurkha. I'm saying this from experience because I live in high rainfall area.

yes, you would have the change the complete assembly for best result, you could sell yours in aftermarket and buy new assembly. Even in some high end cars steering rack is in such places so dont worry.You can drill a water hole, repaint the edges and fit a nipple, then run a pipe to fix it in your existing machine, for the water issue.

I have read that Force motors are not denying it and at the same time they are not accepting it, I am hoping i get some answers by october. if i hear a complete denial then i am defenitely getting this Manual Ghurka. If i get the manual transmission now, and suddenly Ghurka launches the automatic then it is going to be a lotta Q&A with in myself.

Great Great Video. I've paid for my Gurkha and awaiting to get the delivery (from Indore). Planning on changing to 17" steel wheels and using 275x75x17 tires on it. What do you think of this combination?
@IndianOverlander4 ай бұрын
Congratulations on the Gurkha! If you really value my honest review on the tyre change i would not suggest you do it. I will give you the reasons. 1. 2 inch increase in diameter is too big a jump. 2.The gearing and crawl ratio of your Gurkha will get affected. 3. Aftermarket Steel wheels center bore if does not match the hub center of the Gurkha by even half mm will cause a lot of vibrations in steering at high speeds. 4. After market steel wheels and larger tyres are quite heavy and will affect fuel economy negatively. 5. Added weight of both will affect suspension components including wheel bearings and lower ball joints. 6. Steering rack may also be affected. There are many many drawbacks and just a visual advantage alongwith extra side profile on the tyres. Aapne poocha toh maine bata diya. 🙂🙏
@faisalhus994 ай бұрын
The increase is actually 2cm. Not 2 inch. And this will be offset by reducing the wheel from 18 to 17inches so I was thinking it will be the same more or less. But you raise very good points. Much appreciated.

Wonderful review. Thanks a lot. Just a question though. As potrayed by many reviews earlier, is getting in and out of the driver's seat difficult for a tall person like does the steering wheel rubs against your thighs and stuff while driving ?
@IndianOverlander4 ай бұрын
Not while driving but the oversized steering wheel does cause issues while entering sometimes. I have mine set at its highest position and pulled up closest to driver. That frees up maximum space and does not interfere with my thighs.

There have been issues with the 2021-2023 Gurkhas. The same as I have spoken of in my earlier videos too. These issues were highlighted to the management especially things like wheel bearings issue, coolant leakage etc i am quite confident that these have been addressed in the 2024 model. About any issues that come in the 2024 models only time will tell. As regards the negtive information. Its usually gathered from sources on the internet. Its always a person who has an issue that highlights it. People who are happy and are maybe 95% of users do not come online to talk about their good experiences. This results in an innacurate depiction of any product..not just the Gurkha.
