Force Gurkha 5-door | Indian G-Wagen | evo India

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

2024 Force Gurkha is here complete with 5-doors. Arriving a few months before the 5-door Mahindra Thar, the updated Force Gurkha also gets more power, more torque, more ground clearance, a digital cluster and bigger infotainment screen, revised suspension tuning and better refinement. It also gets shift-on-the-fly 4x4 along with three locking differentials along with best-in-class 233mm ground clearance. But it still lacks an automatic gearbox. Is the worth your attention?

    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.

    Force Motors really did a good job and improved 70% than before in every aspect apart from Interior Dashboard and rear tail lamp. 91 to 140 bhp is impressive from the same 2.6l. It's a quite heavy vehicle (3.2 tons) 1000kg more than Fortuner (2.1 tons) so we can't feel that 140bhp power with this weight. Good Job Force 🎉

    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. 👍

But the purpose of this Vehicle is off roading. Used by UN, MILITARY Woldwide, so what matters for Gurkha is 4x4 driving skills discipline knowing well it's not the Vehicle for racing track.

    Excellent review. Honest enough, One thing caught my attention when you said it was crawling when you were going up the off road settings...... does this crawling (slowly) nature of the engine without foot on clutch or accelerator make life easy in bumper to bumper traffic and work like an automatic car does? is my assumption right? Pls let me know🙏

    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

    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. All that is left now are the showrooms and silly sluggish sales agents who are least interested in selling . Lena hai lo varna Aage badho…. Sawal mat poocho.

    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..❤

Although manual tranny is being retained, at least she can do engine braking during down hill. At last but not least, The rear drum brakes ain't bad at all anyway. Yes, she's old but she'll hold.
