Force Gurkha 5 Door Vs Maruti Eeco 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 base 5-seater STD petrol version of Eeco starts at around ₹5.44 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), and the higher 5-seater AC CNG variant goes up to about ₹6.96 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).

Eeco uses a 1.2-litre DualJet petrol engine (≈ 1,196 cc) producing about 80 bhp and 104 Nm torque. With petrol, it delivers roughly 19.71 kmpl; the CNG version gives around 26.78 km/kg.

Eeco got a big update in 2025: 6 airbags as standard, improved safety fitments including ABS with EBD, seat-belt warnings, child lock, engine immobilizer, reverse parking sensors, etc. Before this update, many variants had only 2 airbags (driver & passenger) or less safety gear.

If you want a practical van/MPV that can carry people or goods affordably, the Eeco is perfect. It appeals to small business owners, families needing extra space, or people wanting van-utility without paying SUV premiums. If you don’t care about fancy upholstery or sporty ride, but want reliability, low running costs, and lots of space, Eeco is a no-brainer.

Compared to hatchbacks, Eeco gives way more cabin and loading space, higher seating, easier to load/unload goods or luggage. Compared to small MPVs, it’s simpler, more rugged, and cheaper to maintain. Where hatchbacks win in comfort or fuel efficiency, Eeco wins in practicality and space.

Eeco is about 3,675 mm long, 1,475 mm wide, and 1,825 mm tall, wheelbase ~ 2,350 mm. Ground clearance is ~ 160 mm. Those tall dimensions and high roof make it easier to stand inside, load luggage or goods, and the ground clearance helps with speed breakers and rough roads. But its width is modest, so in narrow streets it is manageable.

There are variants with 5 seats, or a new 6-seater variant introduced with forward-facing middle row (captain style). Earlier there were also 7-seater options, but many of those have been discontinued in favor of 5/6 seat‐layouts that are safer and more comfortable.

With petrol mileage ~ 19.71 kmpl and petrol price ~ ₹102/L, the fuel cost comes to about ₹5.17/km. If you drive 12,000 km/year, fuel costs ~ ₹62,000/year. With the CNG version (~26.78 km/kg and CNG price lower than petrol), cost is significantly less per km, maybe ~ ₹3.8-₹4/km depending on local CNG rates. Maintenance for Eeco is low because parts are simple, service widely available, no complex electronics, so yearly upkeep is modest.

Despite being basic, Eeco has useful comfort features: Manual AC in AC-variants, sliding side doors, spacious legroom, adjustable front seats, reverse parking sensors, semi-digital odometer, dual front airbags now standard, basic audio support via AUX/USB. The new 6-seater version gets captain-seats in middle row, which adds comfort for passengers.
