The pricing is little steep compared to Thar which retails at 7.1L Ex showroom Bangalore.
Thar also has a better engine and has access to much larger service and support infrastructure than Force Gurkha.
Awaiting the official team-bhp test drive report.

Few pics from the Indianautoblog.
Looks good. With a little tweaking it can pass off as a Merc G wagen.
