- The five-door Gurkhacarries over the overall design from its three-door sibling

- The company could introduce the model in the coming months

Force Motors continues testing the five-door Gurkha ahead of its launch that could take place in the coming months. New spy images give us a fresh look at an uncamouflaged test mule of the model.

As seen in the spy images, the five-door Force Gurkha not only benefits from a longer body and two doors, but also gets a third row with two side-facing seats. Compared to its three-door sibling which runs on 16-inch wheels, the model seen in the images here rides on 18-inch dual-tone alloy wheels. The rest of the design is carried over from the three-door Gurkha.

The Force Gurkha is currently powered by a 2.6-litre, four-cylinder diesel engine that produces 90bhp and 250Nm of torque. Paired to a five-speed manual transmission, power is sent to all four wheels via the four-wheel-drive system. Upon its arrival, we expect a slightly higher power output from the same engine for the new five-seat model. Once launched, the five-door Force Gurkha will rival the upcoming five-door versions of the Thar and Jimny.
