Force Gurkha 5 Door Vs Jeep Meridian FAQs

The Force Gurkha 5-Door starts at about ₹18 lakh ex-showroom. On-road in Delhi it can cost around ₹21.4 lakh depending on insurance, RTO, etc.

Because if you want a vehicle that laughs at bad roads, floods, mud, and steep inclines, this is the one. With standard 4x4, low-range transfer case, manually locking differentials, and a 2.6L diesel that gives good torque low in the revs, Gurkha 5-Door is built for people who don’t want excuses. It’s not about luxury, it's about capability and presence.

It packs a 2.596 cc FM 2.6 CR CD diesel engine, producing ~138 bhp at 3,200 rpm and 320 Nm torque between ~1,400-2,600 rpm. Transmission is a 5-speed manual, and it comes with 4WD as standard.

Length is ~4,390 mm, width ~1,865 mm, height ~2,095 mm; wheelbase is ~2,825 mm. Ground clearance (unladen) is ~233 mm.

Seating is for 7 people in three rows. The second row is a bench seat, third row with captain seats in some trims. Boot space isn’t officially huge, but it’s roomy enough to carry essential luggage for long road trips. With its big dimensions and high roof, tall passengers will not feel squeezed.

ARAI claimed / published numbers are around 9.5 kmpl in mixed-conditions. In city or offroad it could drop. If you mostly use highways, expect somewhat better.

Interiors aren’t luxury sedan level, but they deliver what they need: bench seats in second row, captain seats in third in certain trims; a 9-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay & Android Auto; power windows; roof-mounted rear AC vents; tilt & telescopic steering. Rugged, practical, usable.

Lockable front and rear differentials, standard 4x4 with low-range transfer case, snorkel, strong ground clearance (~233 mm), water wading capability, large all-terrain tyres (255/65 R18). It’s built to get dirty and come out smiling.

Force Motors offers 3 years / 1.5 lakh km warranty, along with 4 free services and roadside assistance (for at least 1 year). For an SUV this rugged, those freebies help ease ownership worries.

The Jeep Meridian is priced between ₹24.99 lakh and ₹38.79 lakh (ex-showroom, India). It covers both premium family buyers looking at entry trims and urban professionals or explorers considering the higher AWD versions.

Yes, the Jeep Meridian is a proper 7-seater SUV, designed to carry the entire family or a group of friends in comfort. The third row is practical for kids and occasional adults, while the second row is spacious enough for long highway drives.

The Jeep Meridian’s boot space changes based on the seating configuration: 1. 670 litres in the 5-seater variant, perfect for families who want luggage freedom. 2. 481 litres in the 7-seater version with all rows in use, which is still enough for a couple of suitcases and daily needs. This flexibility means whether you’re carrying airport luggage, weekend camping gear, or groceries, the Meridian can adapt without compromising comfort.

The Jeep Meridian is ideal for: 1. Families who want space and premium comfort without stretching to the size (and price) of a Fortuner. 2. Professionals in metro cities who prefer a stylish yet practical 7-seater for office commutes and weekend trips. 3. Adventure enthusiasts who want a monocoque SUV with AWD capability for road trips, hilly terrains, or light off-road trails.

The Jeep Meridian competes with the Tata Safari, MG Hector Plus, Hyundai Alcazar, and Toyota Innova Hycross on the lower trims. On the higher trims, it also attracts buyers eyeing the Toyota Fortuner or MG Gloster. While rivals focus on sheer size or value, the Meridian’s strength lies in its premium interiors, Jeep heritage, and balanced urban-rural usability.

At 4,769 mm long and 1,859 mm wide, the Meridian offers commanding presence yet doesn’t feel oversized like some ladder-frame SUVs. It fits better in urban parking, handles well in traffic, and still gives the big SUV aura that city buyers love.
