The newly introduced 5-door Gurkha promises to be more practical, with a lot of improvements, top-notch safety, and advanced features for those who are looking for an all-purpose SUV.
Compared to the 3-door, the new vehicle now flaunts a bigger size and improved road appearance and is available in multiple colour options, including Red, White, Green, and Black.
The Force Gurkha is powered by a 2.6-litre 4-cylinder diesel engine that produces 138 BHP and 320 Nm. The engine is mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox and a 4x4 system.
The company claims that the improved power and torque enable it to cruise on expressways at triple-digit speeds.
The new Gurkha offers a ground clearance of 233 mm, which is said to be the highest in the segment.
It can drive up a 35-degree incline and can wade through 700 mm deep water.
The Gurkha also gets new independent suspension at the front, fully locking mechanical differentials on both the axles and electronic shift-on-the-fly.
