New Force Gurkha Review: Hardcore Off-Roader Rivals Thar — SEE PICS

Force Gurkha

There are very few SUVs that are very good offroaders and by that we mean, being equipped with proper off-road features like a low-range gearbox. The new Gurkha, on the other hand, is a proper offroader with everything one would want including lockable differentials, low-range gearbox, and a snorkel as standard. If you want to go anywhere and everywhere, the Gurkha will seem like one of the few options at this price. However, with the new Gurkha, Force Motors also says that it is much better for on-road use and living with it day-to-day. The earlier Gurkha could not be called that or even luxurious as it was a basic off-road tool but the new one is different. Hence, we lived the Gurkha for the better part of a week to see whether it can be your only car or not.

First of all, the new Gurkha is huge despite being a 3-door with an increase in its dimensions. That along with the new style makes heads turn when you drive it. The Gurkha stands tall and is every inch a proper offroader along with an old-school look. The design is changed with a new round LED headlamp, grille, or the boxy but muscular proportions. It's wide too and the snorkel gives it a look of 'not to be messed with'. Needless to say, others move away when they see it in the rearview mirrors plus I did not use the horn even once- the presence is enough!
