The Force Gurkha Just Got Dearer By Rs 39,000

Force Motors started 2022 by giving the Gurkha its first price increment since its launch in September 2021. Fast forward to April 2022 and the off-roader has gotten dearer again, and is now priced at Rs 14.49 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). This time prices were increased by Rs 39,000 compared to Rs 51,000 the first time around, which had the off-roader priced at Rs 14.10 lakh.

The Gurkha is powered by a 91PS 2.6-litre diesel engine, paired to a 5-speed manual gearbox and a 4x4 drivetrain. Off-road cred includes a low-range gearbox, snorkel and manual-locking (front and rear) differentials.

Despite being an off-roader, the new Gurkha is more civilized inside than before. Offered in a sole fully-loaded three-door trim,  it features a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, keyless entry, front power windows, and a multi-info display. Passenger safety is taken care of by dual airbags, ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors, and a tyre pressure monitoring system.

Force Motors is also working on a five-door body style of the Gurkha, with test mules being spotted. It is expected to go on sale around Q2 2022. The current three-door Gurkha rivals the Mahindra Thar and will have the upcoming Maruti Suzuki Jimny for company soon.
