Force Gurkha
- No automatic on offer
- Cabin feels dated
- Rear seats get lap belts
- High-speed stability
Honda City
- Headroom in both the front and the rear seats is limited and tall people will struggle
- New features like the 10.1-inch touchscreen and the 360-degree camera feel like last minute thought and need better executions
- The petrol engine gets loud under load due to poor cabin insulation and acceleration also takes time with the CVT
