Force Motors has launched the much-anticipated 2024 versions of the Gurkha in both three-door and five-door configurations, marking a significant comeback for the five-door variant. This legendary off-roader receives a welcome power boost, enhanced features, and a refreshed interior, solidifying its position as a formidable contender in the Indian SUV market.
Powerhouse Performance
The 2.6-litre diesel engine under the hood has been revitalized, churning out an impressive 138bhp and 320Nm of torque. This improved power delivery translates to a more exhilarating driving experience, especially when tackling challenging off-road terrains. The five-speed manual gearbox remains, while the traditional low-range transfer case lever has been conveniently upgraded to an electronic unit.
Enhanced Features for Comfort and Convenience
The 2024 Gurkha boasts a range of new features designed to elevate comfort and convenience. The five-door version offers a significantly increased wheelbase of 2,825mm compared to the three-door model, providing ample legroom and a more spacious cabin. Both variants now feature a larger touchscreen infotainment system from Nippon, a fully digital seven-inch driver’s display for clear and concise information, and the added luxury of electrically adjustable ORVMs. Additionally, a reverse parking camera ensures effortless maneuvering in tight spots.
Competitive Pricing
The 2024 Force Gurkha caters to diverse needs with its two body styles. The three-door version starts at an ex-showroom price of Rs. 16.75 lakh, while the five-door variant comes in slightly higher at Rs. 18 lakh (ex-showroom). This positions the Gurkha competitively within the Indian off-road SUV segment, offering a compelling combination of power, features, and capability.
The 2024 Force Gurkha marks a significant evolution for this iconic off-roader. With its increased power output, improved features, and the return of the five-door option, the Gurkha is poised to attract a wider audience of adventure seekers and outdoor enthusiasts. Its competitive pricing further strengthens its appeal, making it a compelling choice for those who crave an uncompromising off-road companion.
