Kiphire, Nagaland. "Aspirational District" nominee, to visit Mt Saramati near the indo Burma border. The road to there has a reputation, even for locals.
Can you guys do a reliability review of this vehicle, i am hearing a lot of complaints regarding oil leaks, issues with 1 and 2nd gear and diff at not engaging and at times not disengaging. A honest review will help , I know its not a issue free vehicle and i dont expect it to be. But can i live with it?
Knocked it outta the park as usual Shirish and team. Hands down, Shirish Chandran is the best auto journo in the country today. Pure content , pure passion.
If force can pack these Gurkha twins with plush interiors and really good looking rear Aircon vents and a branded infotainment system whilst keeping the prices in check just like the current one's, it will surely create a stir. 2. Gurkha with the 13 seater and aforementioned point under 25 lakhs will kill the safari, XUV 700 and high end suv market. It will directly fall with the land rover defender 130 but at 1/4th the price. 3. The service centers and the showroom network, by the way it's a cycle that force can only come out of once they start selling record numbers. For that to happen the above mentioned 2 points are imperative. 3. Steering has to be smaller with mounted controls. 4. The seats and its plushness is way below what Mahindra is doing with the ROXX. P.S. I m saying this coz I really want the vehicle to succeed and become a cult!
The Gurkha twins are beasts and pure raw off road suvs, and the factory fitted air snorkel means no need to get it modified and altered from outside. I love real and actual body on frame 4x4 off road suvs
Sirish, I want to honestly know if I can put my hard earned money in a Gurkha. I can live with all that it offers. All I ask in return is that it should never break down somewhere in the wild. Apart from my 17 year old Land Cruiser Prado , I just cannot trust any other vehicle with my family's safety. Reliability is everything to me.
y'all know Traveller; it is made by the same company and it sells like hotcakes in the commercial market as small buses and it is also used as ambulance in many hospitals so this thing is reliable for sure
I just lost in you video please make a full fledged 30min gurkha video...........gurkha and your bgm just blown my mind evo India thumbs up and please make another one
Bhai maine sirf TH-cam par Gurkha ko dekha aur 2022 jun mai ja k kharid liya...42000 km chala chuka hu....aisa lagta hai ki duniya ka sab se bada kismat wala insaan hu mai isko le k jab nikalta hu....no words for this historical vehicle...sirf service centre walon ki problem hai
Force Motors needs to TWO things right about Gurkha: 1) Better Fit & Finish of the interiors & more features, that are upto date. The current setup looks like mis & mash of everything. Just get the basic right, no need of a 10 or 12 inch Touch screen, but a better integrated one, current one is horrendous & the overall the interior, in general. 2) Better & more powerful engines &Gearbox. Gurkha deserves a modern a more powerful engine. 160-180HP with 350-450Nm is what this SUV deserves, of course keep the current one, but it needs a modern Powertrain/Drivetrain as well.
I have a strong inclination to engage in off-road activities and spend weekends with my family; this is my primary interest. Should I consider the rather perplexing Roxx MS5 or the Gurkha 5-door? What is your opinion?
I have a doubt, it would be a great help if anybody can clear it. I heard force ghurkha have frequent mechanical and sensor compliants and parts availability issue. Is it true? This is my dream suv, but these statements from people makes me rethink whether to choose ghurkha or not
Major issues are getting fixed. Control arm issue, leakage due to poor quality seals, low power (90hp), rough gear shifting issue, minor sensor issues are all fixed. Only issue now left is DPF one. They are working on it. If you want to buy gurkha, I would suggest to wait for some months.
It is almost 2025. We are in a country where we face harsh summers almost 8 to 9 months a year. Yet are we still seeing AC as One of the additional features???
every Host say Mercedes BenZ Mercedes BenZ Mercedes BenZ , real users video is not giving such good review. Can i able to buy this beast without Much Headache and Service ?????
Young Gen just need these from Gurkha - 1). complete interior revamp. 2)Height be shortened, currently not proportionate at all. 3) new tail light design with led, headlights looks awesome. 4) new alloy wheels design. If these are rectified, it will give a tough flight with Mahindra Thar ROXX
Where would you take the Desi G-Wagen for a drive?

Well It can take me everywhere
Back to the service centre.
They need an automatic option and interior upto maruti standards
no they don't it will only attract unneccessary pricing and get targetted by chhapris.
Automatic is for Kids bro...😂
Men drive manual.
Maruti standard? Did u check new alto interiors? It's form 80s cars..😂
Check for the same segment or maruti car within the same price bracket you will know the difference
FWD Monocoque models should be recategorized as HOS. Hatchbacks on Steroids.😅
I see what you did there 😆🤣
I thought you were gonna type 'Horsesh**' 😂

Highly capable vehicle! Hope it gets well designed dashhoard, high-quality buttons, knobs, upholstery, front grill, etc.

Agree
Appreciate your kind words :)
There is black gurkha of some doctor in my city, man the attention it commands, like crazy.
that u-turn was not a 3 point turn for any car that is on sale in the country

No one will take a 4 crore G wagon for off roading. Ya but definitely in this 20 lakh Gurkha. What a beauty.
me watching this owning one
🤩
How is the vehicle in brief
Sirish, I want to honestly know if I can put my hard earned money in a Gurkha. I can live with all that it offers. All I ask in return is that it should never break down somewhere in the wild. Apart from my 17 year old Land Cruiser Prado , I just cannot trust any other vehicle with my family's safety. Reliability is everything to me.
If you get the answer to this question please reply to this comment, I'm curious too.
Same question here. Only time can tell..
Commenting for visibility
y'all know Traveller; it is made by the same company and it sells like hotcakes in the commercial market as small buses and it is also used as ambulance in many hospitals so this thing is reliable for sure
I just lost in you video please make a full fledged 30min gurkha video...........gurkha and your bgm just blown my mind evo India thumbs up and please make another one
Appreciate your kind words.
What a beast, saw it in person in Himachal.
💪
Almost everyone misses the fact that it has a ladder frame chasis with an independent suspension setup.
Can i remove last 2 seat to get big boot space
Best review by far..
Background music choice 10/10
Thank you so much
Sirish's wit is unmatched in the automotive journalist circle! 🎉❤
My dream car❤ Man I'm going to re-watch this video in intervals until i finally buy one😅

Maybe this is the best review of Gurkha! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!

Would there be any possibility of a 6th gear in the future for highway usage?
I have a strong inclination to engage in off-road activities and spend weekends with my family; this is my primary interest. Should I consider the rather perplexing Roxx MS5 or the Gurkha 5-door? What is your opinion?
I am happy there is a Gurkha out there in the midst of so call suv.
We love force' Gurkha ❤❤❤
9:03 I don't think I have seen anyone do that on a Gurkha. NGL, gave me a mini heart attack 😅
😅
Best showcase in your channel🎉❤
Soon will be in “Gone, but not forgotten” series! Why? Interiors interiors & interiors. Learn Force, it’s too late.
This is purpose built for select users. Chappris can get a thar.
It's made for real offroading travels, stain ain't easy to clean from white seats.
You are the kind of person who wears Air Jordans for rock climbing. 🙄
Need more Gurkha offroad videos
Sure, we will make more such videos :)
Superb video editing ❤❤
Thankyou
Thank you brother 🙏 💙
I think the design team forgot to update the rear.
Did I miss the differentials part or you missed it
Hi sir your commentry suggest the suv terminology next level 😊, since I am learning as the aspirer of the beast crusing on road
SuV means Road presence, Gurkhas Road Presence is OP. Like Defender 110.
💪
We should disconnect the sway bar before off roading .Gurkha has both front and rear sway bars
Nice video 😊
Thanks 😊
I have a doubt, it would be a great help if anybody can clear it. I heard force ghurkha have frequent mechanical and sensor compliants and parts availability issue. Is it true? This is my dream suv, but these statements from people makes me rethink whether to choose ghurkha or not

2 things to improve:
Service quality
Interiors
It is almost 2025. We are in a country where we face harsh summers almost 8 to 9 months a year. Yet are we still seeing AC as One of the additional features???
Its seems like short video need thoroughly and detailed review of this underatted suv
India is now filled with all the ‘desi’ versions of :-
The desi G Wagen

The desi Urus
🙄😵💫😅
Haven't even seen the Mahindra desi urus series?
Superb 🎉
Thanks 🤗
All seats should captain seats
I agree to your saying!! The after service is ???😢😢😢
The service at Mangalore Force is very good. Own a 5 door Gurkha
The way ot sails is like a ship on rough seas!!!😂
every Host say Mercedes BenZ Mercedes BenZ Mercedes BenZ , real users video is not giving such good review. Can i able to buy this beast without Much Headache and Service ?????
Need to fix the current engine issue and the braking
The Gurkha doesn't drive on wheels, It walks on those wheels.
Jai ❤ Gurkha

Great video of a greatest car ever made
I wish it was 200 hp
Young Gen just need these from Gurkha -
1). complete interior revamp.
2)Height be shortened, currently not proportionate at all.
3) new tail light design with led, headlights looks awesome.
4) new alloy wheels design.
If these are rectified, it will give a tough flight with Mahindra Thar ROXX
It’s called a desi G wagon so the company should put in some more features it’s a car of the 80s wth this features ya cmon it’s high time
