- To rival the five-door Thar, which will be launched in 2023.
According to an RTO document, the Gurkha may also be available in an 8-seater version. Captain seats in the second row and 2-seater side-facing bench seats in the third row should be the configuration.
Steel wheels, a boot-mounted spare wheel, and a front-mounted snorkel were all seen on the spy test mule. It will be much longer than the three-door Gurkha, which is 4,116mm length with a 2400mm wheelbase.
The cabin and exterior design will most likely be the same as the three-door off-roader. The 7-inch touchscreen system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, manual air conditioning, four-speaker sound system, dual front airbags, rear parking sensors, and tyre pressure monitoring should all be kept.
The existing 2.6-litre diesel engine with 91PS and a 5-speed manual transmission should be used in the five-door Gurkha. It will come equipped with 4WD, a low-range transmission, and manual locking differentials (front and rear).
