Force One to get 4x4 in mid-2012
Force Motors, which launched its first SUV, Force One, last August will launch a new 4x4 version and a variant equipped with ABS by mid-2012.The new 4X4 was displayed at the Auto Expo last month. At the launch, the company had indicated its intentions to offer more features in the SUV at a later stage. These features have made it to the SUV, but the company has been tight-lipped about launch date and price tag. The 4x4 variant will continue to be powered by the FM-Tech 2.2-litre common-rail turbo-diesel motor that develops 139bhp and 32.6kgm of torque.
It will be offered with a five-speed manual gearbox as is the case with the 4x2 version. There will be no visual changes to differentiate the 4x4 from its 4x2 sibling, except for the badge. We expect the ABS-equipped 4x4 version to cost at least Rs 1 lakh more than the 4x2 variant, which costs Rs 10.65 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).
