5-Door Force Gurkha Finally Teased in India
Force Motors has finally unveiled the first teaser image of its much-anticipated five-door Gurkha in India. This rugged off-road SUV has been spotted testing numerous times over the past few years and is set to rival the upcoming five-door Mahindra Thar. The official launch is scheduled to take place in the coming months, sparking excitement among off-road enthusiasts. Here’s a roundup of everything we should know about this eagerly awaited vehicle.
Bigger and Bolder: Styling Differences for the Five-Door Model
The larger five-door version of this car will share the tall pillars and boxy design of the three-door model. However, the five-door gets a different headlight design with squarer shapes instead of round ones. The front grille and bumper will also have slight changes to set the two models apart. To complete the more substantial look, this bigger version will roll on larger 18-inch alloy wheels with a shiny, diamond-cut finish.
5-Door Force Gurkha: Off-Road Ready with Exciting Updates
The Gurkha is a tough off-roader with 16-inch wheels for good ground clearance. A 5-Door Force Gurkha version is coming soon, offering more passenger space thanks to two extra doors and a longer wheelbase. The back might also look a bit different compared to the three-door model. Inside, both versions will have a convenient shift-on-the-fly four-wheel drive system, which means you can switch between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive without stopping.

Five-Door Force Gurkha: Expanding Appeal for Adventure and Family
The upcoming 5-Door Force Gurkha is expected to be available in three seating options: five, six, and even seven seats. This wider range should appeal to a larger group of buyers, from those who want a spacious family car to those who need more cargo room for outdoor adventures. The five-door Gurkha will also have a longer wheelbase than the three-door model, providing more legroom and a more comfortable ride. The interior design is expected to be a bit more stylish, and Force Motors might add new features to make it feel more premium. Overall, the 5-Door Force Gurkha seems like a more practical and comfortable version of the tough and capable off-roader that Force is known for.
5-Door Force Gurkha: Engine Specifications, Performance and Expected Price
Force Gurkha will still use the same 2.6-liter four-cylinder diesel engine that comes from Mercedes-Benz. This engine will only be paired with a five-speed manual transmission. The engine makes 91 horsepower at 3,200 rpm and 250 Nm of torque at 1,400 rpm. The starting price is expected to be around Rs. 16.5 lakh (ex-showroom).
On the outside, there’s a spare tyre mounted on the back door, boxy fenders, and a green paint job. It also has a snorkel for taking in air when driving through water and a roof rack for extra cargo. Inside, the car seems to have a mix of modern and classic features. The dashboard has both digital and analog gauges, while the steering wheel is thick and round. There’s a traditional gear shifter instead of buttons or dials, and the air conditioning vents have a fin-like design. There’s also a touchscreen infotainment system and likely more features to be revealed later.
