It's hard to find this model in Tier 1 citie's but Force uses the name Gurkha across the country, only hardcore 4X4 enthusiast will know this model's existence.

No wonder. Thar's real competitor will be Gypsy if it's coming in diesel engine.

I saw only one at their showroom, the main flaw it had was the price point which came closer to 7~8 lakhs where Bolero was offered in a much better package.

I wonder what is stopping Suzuki from putting fiat multi-jet engine under the hood of Gypsy.With a diesel motor it will sell like hot cakes.

Anyways,back on topic; I commend the serious effort that force is doing to challenge the domination of MnM in 4x4 category.

Buddy, I've added some pics of the old Gurkha.

New changes found from the spy pics- new headlamps (most probably round), new bumper with fog lamps, alloy wheels and most probably new front grills.

Did anybody knows that our TATA also used the same name 'GURKHA' for 'Sierra' which sold in some European countries? [;)].

That's news to me but were Telco motor's which was what Tata motor's were called then, were they exporting their passenger vehicles to European market?

Man this is the same face of the current version of Cruiser, The previous version looked much better than this crap.let-down for sure.

I bet it won't touch 1k mark too and forget about this competing a 9k p.m selling vehicle, for that matter it can't touch the Sumo sales too!

It cant even spell the word Compete in front of Bolero, 2 door Vehicles are never considered as a practical vehicle in our market.only a handful of 4X4 enthusiasts will buy it, On the other hand this product can give Gypsy a run for it's money

I thought it is only the Tatas, who share same face for their different cars like Indica, Indigo, Manza, Vista, but, wow, Force Motors has gone one step ahead. All their cars look the same, and this Gurkha is no different. A big let down from Force.

Looks the same as Cruiser or TOwn & Country. [sleep]
That 2 door is another disadvantage.
