The 3-door Gurkha to get 4x2 variant soon No other design design will be made Will compete with Mahindra Thar RWD Likely to be more affordable
Force Motors is working on the rear-wheel drive variant of the 2024 Gurkha SUV. This 4x2 variant will be available in the 3-door version only, while the 5-door version will continue with the 4x4 capability. It is said that a 3-door Gurkha RWD could be launched in India in the near future.
Force Gurkha 4x2: What's More?
The Indian automaker offers 3-door and 5-door body styling for the Gurkha SUV. Both come with AWD capability as standard. However, the 5-door Force Gurkha is offered with RWD petrol and diesel variants. With the addition of RWD in 3-door Gurkha, it will become the rival of Mahindra Thar RWD.
Design-wise, the Gurkha 3-door will remain unchanged. As for the pricing, the current Gurkha in the 3-door body style is priced at Rs 16.75 lakh (ex-showroom) and Rs 18 lakh (ex-showroom) for the 5-door variant.
With the launch of the 3-door RWD, the company is expected to price it somewhere between Rs 14 lakh to Rs 15 lakh (ex-showroom). Such pricing could attract more customers to buy the Gurkha 3-door RWD over the Mahindra Thar RWD as it takes a long waiting period.
