Pros & Cons Comparison

Things We Like in Mahindra Thar ROXX

Iconic and rugged design with increased practicality from 5 doors.
Available with powerful petrol and diesel engine options.

Things We Like in Force Motors Gurkha

Excellent off-road capability with standard differential locks (on 4x4).
Robust and durable ladder-frame chassis construction.

Things We Don't Like in Mahindra Thar ROXX

Still based on a ladder-on-frame chassis, which might result in some compromises in on-road dynamics compared to monocoque SUVs.
Rear visibility might be somewhat limited due to the design.

Things We Don't Like in Force Motors Gurkha

Basic and utilitarian interior lacks modern features.
On-road ride comfort is poor.
