Not yet but cannot be way too adventurous with a TD vehicle, but suggestions welcome.

Yesterday I had seen total 24 of these vehicles in Dombivli, parked near Force dealer.
Since all have snorkel near A pillars, IMHO these are 4x4 vehicles. these are not looking any where near that in the other photographs.

That's a great find pal, they might have upgraded the age old version Trax Kargo i suppose. But why is a snorkel needed for a pick-up and are these real snorkels? And did you find out what name it carried at the back?

EDIT: These are Left Hand Drives, they are for export purposes.

 

[Iron Rock]

Surely export ones and there will be specific order for a purpose.

Btw Force Motors dealer in Pune has started accepting booking amount for Gurkha (25k) and arranging test drive appointments, the good news being the test drive will also be arranged at Force's special offroad track at Akurdi, Pune.

We are very keenly awaiting to get our hands on this beastie and hoping to get access to the Force offroad track as well!

These are 4wd.
I will check with the dealer on Saturday & post the results.
If these vehicles are available here then I would love to have one in this setup with RHS.



Is this the tire size for normal vehicle?

Nice catch, Umesh. Thanks for uploading the images for us. They're indeed export models. Please keep us updated after inquiring with the dealership.

Force Gurkha TVC. Truly focused on the car and not dramatic like Force One TVC.

Very soon. Good news is that Iron Rock will also be testing it on Force’s off-road track. All I can say is stay tuned. The wait will be well worth it.

Visran Apologies mate the reviews will have to wait till we get the car in hand, however we might get exclusive factory and factory test track access in the coming weeks, will keep posted!

 

[Iron Rock]

Not many might know but Gurkha has its own site now E.O.V 4x4x4
Not only that but they have facebook and twitter accounts too with a 24x7 customer service number.

Its nice to see Force Motors take such steps!

Not only that but they have facebook and twitter accounts too with a 24x7 customer service number.

Wow, how nice...but the question is that:
How many of those 24X7 helpline numbers will be working for 24X7 and even if working then also how many calls will go received?

Wow! Very nice video .


Does anyone know if this SUV is on sale now? Or know someone who bought one?

I just couldn't find any ownership report or an exhaustive review anywhere, making me wonder what is Force motors is up to.

It is on sale now but only in BS3 markets and not the metro cities.
