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? Editor Sirish Chandran tests the Desi G-Wagen

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. 👍
Anyday Force Gurkha for me.....!!! People want everything sorted....but that's not the thing it should be....! These machines are beautiful when are unbalanced.......a little heavy and hard.... teaching the people in their own style...! This would be a Beauty on roads in my old Ooty town ❤😊

Land Cruiser Hard Top Vehicle and pickup is the highest sold vehicle in the world. It's narrow and tall. Body roll was the issue when it was introduced 1st time in late 80's. 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. I greatly appreciate the ground clearance from factory with power factor boost. Water wadding should be 700-800mm with advantage of snorkel. This should be best affordable Vehicle with performance.
I still find gurkha lagging in terms of interior, gearbox and brakes. Force motors should look into this. I was waiting for this to buy, but now seems to wait for 5 door thar. 😢

Interior you can upgrade with aftermarket parts which is even better for overlanding or off-roading adventures. Manual gearbox is always better than automatic. And brake are ok, drums are more durable. And you can buy brake pads which have pieces of ceramic for better performance, so overall is good, I am thinking to order this one, I would like to have more airbags

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..❤

Upgrades which are still missing 1) All around Disk 2) Proper updated Suspension setup at the rear ( still using leaf spring, common it's not a pick up truck any more...) 3) Good amount of space in middle row, With Captain Seats at least as an option. 4) Add more goodies to make it a more updated and comfortable. 5) EBS,EBD & all other options. 6) beg, borrow or Steal but hire good team of interior designer's. and don't worry if price go up above 30lac (janata hoon 140 hp ke liye ye bohot hai ) still people will Purchase it
Unfortunately that 4x4 lever has changed to a rotary dial. Don't get me wrong, The Force Gurkha's still proper offroader with those differential lockers. 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. Kudos to The Force Motor and much appreciate for Sirish Chandran & Evo India. Regards.

They should offer a more expensive variant with more features( useful ones like ventilated seats, 8 speakers, good infotainment, 360 cameras or 4 parking sensors, more comfortable leatherette seats, better quality plastics) for those customers who want a semi offroad vehicle while still using it for long trips as a family car
5 door Gurkha looks classy

YES, It's a G-BANGAN....!!! It looks like a enlarge TATA SUMO and it will also be a replacement for it in the hilly areas.
