Force Gurkha (5-Door)

The Pure Off-Roader

This SUV is built like a tank. It is for people who want to climb mountains and go on real adventures.

What It Does Best

• If you want to go on rough mountains, pick this.
• If you need front and rear diff lockers, Gurkha has them.
• If you drive through water, it has factory snorkel for 700mm deep.
• If you want a strong, simple off-road machine, choose Gurkha.

The Catch

• If you want fancy screens, this is not for you.
• If you want quiet cabin, Gurkha feels commercial inside.
• It is for hardcore off-road lovers only.

Mahindra Thar ROXX

The Tech-Loaded Beast

• If you want comfortable ride on roads, it has special suspension.

The Catch

• Screen is small. No connected car features.

Maruti Invicto

The Luxury Cruiser

• If you want to save petrol, hybrid gives 23.24 km/l.
• If you sit in back seat, it has Ottoman seats like business class.
• If you drive in city traffic, it can run on silent electric mode.
