The off-roading world in India just got a whole lot more exciting with the arrival of the much-anticipated 2024 Force Gurkha. This powerful and versatile SUV promises to take adventure seekers anywhere their hearts desire, and at a competitive price point.
Fresh Design Meets Classic Capability
The 2024 Force Gurkha represents the most significant update for the SUV since its introduction in 2021. While retaining its iconic ruggedness, the Gurkha boasts a host of cosmetic enhancements that modernize its look. Eye-catching new alloy wheels elevate the SUV’s stance, while redesigned headlamps and a bold new grille give it a more assertive presence.
But don’t be fooled by the fresh aesthetics – the Gurkha remains a true off-road champion at its core. The three-door variant retains its compact dimensions, making it perfect for navigating tight trails. For those who require more passenger space, the exciting addition of a five-door model offers increased practicality without sacrificing capability. This five-door Gurkha even finds itself competing in terms of size with popular SUVs like the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, and Honda Elevate, making it a compelling choice for those who prioritize both adventure and everyday usability.
Stepping Inside the Adventure Machine
The 2024 Force Gurkha’s cabin upgrades go beyond mere aesthetics. New upholstery adds a touch of comfort, while the inclusion of a full-digital instrument cluster elevates the overall driving experience. Modern conveniences haven’t been forgotten either. Features like a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS), dual front airbags, and an 8-inch infotainment display ensure a safe and connected journey, whether you’re conquering challenging terrain or cruising down the highway.

Uncompromising Performance
The heart of the 2024 Force Gurkha lies in its potent 2.6-liter diesel engine. This powerhouse generates 132 bhp and 320 Nm of torque, providing ample muscle to tackle any obstacle. The engine is paired with a robust six-speed manual transmission, offering drivers complete control over their off-road adventures.
But where the Gurkha truly shines is in its legendary four-wheel-drive (4WD) system. This isn’t your average all-wheel-drive setup. Featuring locking differentials and convenient shift-on-the-fly functionality, the Gurkha’s 4WD system is specifically designed to conquer the most demanding terrain. This advanced system comes standard on both the three-door and five-door models, ensuring exceptional capability regardless of your Gurkha choice.
A Worthy Off-Road Contender
The 2024 Force Gurkha positions itself as a formidable competitor in the Indian off-road market. It goes head-to-head with established players like the Maruti Jimny and the lower-spec versions of the Mahindra Thar. Notably, the Mahindra camp will be introducing a five-door Thar later this year, but the Gurkha’s presence in both three-door and five-door configurations offers buyers immediate choice and flexibility.

This competitive pricing makes it an enticing option for adventure enthusiasts seeking a capable off-roader without breaking the bank.
