Mitsubishi did it first with with a rigid monocoque frame and independent front and rear suspension. Those Pajeros/Monteros are extremely underrated to this day.
My question , can it handle solid axles ? Can it bare the torture on it's underbody ? Monocoque has been used since 2000s by 3rd and 4th gen pajeros that had almost the same payload if not more than a body on frame SUV yet it suffered underbody dents which even ruined the wheel alignment ! They were the once who started making unibody 4x4s yet today they are still producing body on frame SUVs like the pajero sport ! Also toyota has won 3 seasons of dakar rally with it's ladder frame ! And finally , the defender was an utilaterian workhorse meant to be driven to the mines , not your everday soccermom SUV which you will park in the mall parking lot ! It needs those solid axles !
Funny that scence where guy in New Land rover is waving at guy in old landrover. The old ones with the straight 6 diesel engine are never going to be beaten.
Small correction at 11m30.. allows to go into water upto 2 feet.Fully extended the Def 110 can go into water upto 900mm (same as RR sport) which is short a hair under 3 feet, not 2. Discovery Sport is 60cm and Evoque 50cm.. good video though, a lot better than some i had to watch ..
Our Pajero has a monocoque frame and we also recently got a new prado and the performance difference is notable you feel like your on stilts kinda in the prado still a great car just the suspension is disappointing.
Also... The driver is either a horrible driver and has no idea about how not to un-settle a car's balance, or an ultta skilled professional inducing that on purpose, or someone on a keyboard lol.

@@JimiMoso uncle Scotty is losing his mind in Tennessee , he is not used to the difference in the air lol
This lady was a good narrator , almost as good as Scotty.
Nooo! scotty has too flat voice, perhaps too much neanderthal DNA.
I wonder why
Easier on the ears lol
a tip : watch series at flixzone. Been using them for watching a lot of movies lately.
@Emerson Saint yea, have been using flixzone for since november myself =)
Scott told me you got a Celica, so I came
Through Scotty, thought it was a passage to toyota headquarters..
still not convinced...😂
me too mate
Such a great made video! A ton of editing skills!!!
Glad you liked it!!

Yes.. Wait till those suspension parts wear out and the bill to replace them

How many bodies have you seen fall off a body on frame vehicle in an accident?🤷
Zero
Scotty always good recommendations
Hey now!!!... I was expecting... "Rev up your engines!!"...
Nice and informative video and also support of Scotty...👍👍
Thanks 👍
Don't forget to include a question mark on the title, it smooths out the first-second haters and the like ratio
"Is the Monocoque Better than Body on Frame? | Land Rover Defender 2020"
Thanks for BEAMING Me Here Scotty, 👍🏾👊🏾✌🏾🇳🇬🇺🇸

A few things incorrect, one being a Series or Defender chassis is weak, both of them have immensely strong rigid chassis frames.
Also the Series and original Defender have always had a very low centre of gravity!!

Try up to head height with the original Defender and Discovery with the raised air intake.
The Land rover might get you there ... but only and land cruiser will get you home too.
If only they were reliable
Great presentation as always!
Thanks again!
This lady is excellent just like Scott y Kilmer.
Hi Scott y 👋 🤠
Im here helping
Sorry but nothing beats a 20 year old Corolla, not even new Corollas.
no electronics , no problems
Sure looks nice!
I always wondered why no center wheel
WOW!!! 29KN/deg torsional stiffness, I am a chassis engineer, that number is very huge
Monocoque Body Frame!!!!
Its look like Grand Vitara Construction btw since 2006.
In a place where i live filled with potholes and offroads...i rather have a ladder on frame chassis which can take a real beating
Our Pajero has a monocoque frame and we also recently got a new prado and the performance difference is notable you feel like your on stilts kinda in the prado still a great car just the suspension is disappointing.
which generation pajero do yall have
A good old Ladder Frame will always beat a Unibody.
オフロードカーはラダーフレームと相場が決まっておるのじゃよ
0:48 STOP! Can a real car survive one pump like this one? Wouldn't it be totalled?
Also... The driver is either a horrible driver and has no idea about how not to un-settle a car's balance, or an ultta skilled professional inducing that on purpose, or someone on a keyboard lol.
Wait, did they say "most reliable"?
Also, Scotty sent me. Hi.
Unibody not Monocoque.
Why do you keep changing the name of the channel
me?)
@tech tricity This is the channel that helps Scotty. Scotty sent us the help support this channel. Very Interesting video about LR
Nope . Not a Defender
From front it looks ugly it should be like range rover sport
