What Makes the Force Gurkha Special?
Friends, the Force Gurkha has always been a hardcore and reliable rugged SUV — especially for those who love adventure and want to fulfill their adventure dreams at any cost, but due to limited options in the Indian market, they often had to give up on this dream. But the wait is over, because the new Force Gurkha comes with:
- High ground clearance
- Strong metal body
- And a snorkel — which helps in deep water crossings
But Now Things Are Changing…
Today, pollution rules are becoming stricter, and people are shifting toward electric vehicles. asumming the future, Force Motors has taken a big step and is developing an Electric Gurkha — with 5 doors, which makes it even more practical.

The 5-door design is a major change:
- More space inside the cabin
- Easy entry and exit for rear passengers
- A 7-seater option might also be introduced
- Becoming family-friendly too, not just for off-roaders
This isn’t a minor update — this is proof that Force Motors wants to bring the Gurkha to a wider audience.
Electric Shift: What Can You Expect?
The company hasn’t revealed full specs yet, but looking at EV trends, we can guess:
This won’t be a small city EV. It’ll be a real SUV — one that takes you on adventure-packed rides with tough roads, long drives, and zero emissions.
What Features Can You Expect? (No Fancy Gimmicks)
Force is not known for flashy tech — because this is a unique choice for real men. But still, you’ll get the basics and essentials, like:
- Touchscreen infotainment system
- Digital instrument cluster
- Hill hold, hill descent, off-road modes
- OTA (Over-the-air) software updates
- Rugged design and simple, tough interiors
Don’t expect voice commands or gesture controls. This EV is for those who prioritize driving experience over showing off.
What About Safety?
Absolutely safe!
The current diesel Gurkha is already tough and safe, and the EV version will be made even more secure:
- Multiple airbags
- ESP (Electronic Stability Program)
- Strong protection around the battery
- Water-resistant battery system — so there are no issues during river and deep water crossings
This could become one of the safest electric SUVs in India, built for Indian conditions.
When Will It Launch?
Force Motors is currently in the testing phase — both diesel and electric 5-door versions are being tested.
Launch dates not come yet but is expected around late 2025 or early 2026.
The diesel version might launch first, followed by the electric version.
What Could Be the Price?
Electric cars are still a bit expensive — especially with large batteries and motors.

The price might feel a bit high, but think about it:
- It’s a real off-roader
- You’ll save on fuel because it’s an EV
