Force Motors is gearing up to introduce the new Gurkha SUV in the Indian market. The production-ready model was showcased at the Auto Expo 2020 and was also expected to arrive in the same year, however, the pandemic threw a wrench in its launch plans.

Now the company has resumed testing the SUV on the public roads ahead of its introduction later this year. New spy images have surfaced on the internet providing clear visuals on its exteriors, as well as interiors. The model caught on the latest spy images is an accessorised version of the Gurkha BS 6 SUV. It could be seen kitted with a roof-mounted luggage carrier as well as a tow hook at the rear which clearly isn't part of the stock unit.
