Glad it did well. They do have a true transfer case and an active traction control system. Good combo for this test it looks like. E70's have a similar system I believe but a bit more other features and clearly better looks.
Yes, I was especially curious how the X5 would perform, and whether it was a 4.6is or a 4.8is (with xDrive).. I noticed the video states it is a 4.6is, but it does appear to be a 4.8is from the headlights.. If it is a 4.6is, I’m especially impressed. On 315 tires no less!
The wider tires are an advantage. Larger the contact patch the better. 315s are a few inches wider than the other competitors which are typically 245-275. Also not sure how they went about tire selection. Some vehicles didn’t have the same tire they came with from the factory on top of most of them being street tires. Tire selection and size has more of an effect on outcomes than anything.
I’m really surprised by bmw X5 2002! 1) being the best on-roader among all (as SAV not SUV) but still can manage the off-road like this. 2) The oldest tech among all (2002) but still has beaten the newer ones. 3) The sport tire profile of the car. Really amazing !
I seen some videos where a younger guy buys a beat up X5 and uses it for off-roading and it does pretty good. But most people wouldn't want to abuse their X5 like that.
That red Skoda looks like it's on dry summer street tires. Amazing that it got up at all. The BMW X5 did surprisingly well even with what looks like basic all season tires.
@@wizcorn9958 R & D for automobiles takes a very long time. For fun I can tell you all the best if you want. The vehicles I'd mention have traction control systems that are either equal to or a little bit Superior
On older cars without Traction control and electronics that can fail, a rear and front diff lock would make up for that… It would have been a fair comparison if diff locks were applied on all cars that can do so and that haven’t got traction controll… specially on the 2007 land cruiser Prado it would have made a massive difference, as you have to adjust the vehicle situation for different terrains… It’s no coincidence that most people going off-roading use old landcruisers, Hiluxes etc…

@@CptAngelKGaming I disagree. If you want to do that, a fair comparison, you shouldn’t compare vehicles from different years/decades… comparing all new , let’s say produced after 2015, cars, and similar things with cars from the mid 2000s and mid 90s. That would be a fair comparison. And no, there are indeed landcruisers from that era that had diff lockers installed already. I mean they also put in the low range on the models that had it, a feature that is a must have for off-roading too…
I am a bit surprised that the Outback performed so poorly, but the standout were clearly the Volkswagens, for a brand that isn´t considered to be off road inclined, their cars did great, and of course the toyotas did awesome with their traction control
Agree with other comments. It is well known that subarus with CVT have terrible low end torque to overcome obstacles. They are great on snow and mud, but when you need to puy lots of power on 1 or 2 wheels they fail.
OMG thank you so much. This review mix old and new cars, others not... Now everyone can see how traction control makes a difference in a simply/clearly way. Thank you so much for mixing old and new cars.
The pajero sport did great, I never thought the traction control would be so effective. It would have also been interesting to see a 2021 suzuki jimny in this obstacle course
The LC200 looked like it was equiped with the KDSS suspension, it’s wheel travel was more than enough to keep all wheels in contact with the ground. Some Prados also have this system.
I have a 2022 prado and yes it has kdss centre lock and front and rear lsd’s which almost works like a locker it spins all wheels at the same speed it works very good
There's no low range nor diff locks on x5s cz they are not meant to go off road. I'm so surprised that it did a lot better than don't off road worthy cars. Amazing bmw traction control!!
The traction control system of BMW is superb, despite having little suspension articulation , on road it managed to cross the obstacle very gracefully.
Really surprised that you all did not include anything from Suzuki, especially since they basically pioneered the crossover with their SX4 and to this day the Jimmny and Vitara are widely used worldwide and was one of the first compact SUVs besides Jeep to make an impression.
17:03 cruiser prado also deservs 1 st spot.. Also all offroading features should be enabled on each car when drive starts. What is point of enabling these features when car is stuck and lost its momentum
The X5 btw is an 02 model meaning it has no Xdrive but more of a 4x4 system. 04 facelift and up has Xdrive. The X5 in the video also appears to have a facelift conversion for the people confused.
X5 '02 model has planetary gear OPEN center differential (38/62 torque split) so this system must use brakes very hard for front/rear and left/right power split.
Some traction control systems have safeties for mechanical components. Smashing the throttle may disable the system so it doesn’t attempt to shock load the drivetrain if it stops one wheel. Sometimes light steady throttle and some patience makes a big difference.
"Yes, lets build an intricate off-road system and then neuter it because our customers are retarded children who will just break it." Whats even the point of these AWD cars anymore...
Not at all. A diff lock isn’t needed in anything but the most extreme situations. Also a front diff lock is more effective in most situations to Pull you out rather than push you out.
I've got a Tiguan and have considered the touareg too. Both are really good off road. All Terrain tyres help a lit as does turning off traction control. This video was painful to watch with traction control on. I feel sorry for the clutches in the manual cars 😭😂😂
Both the VW and Jag were impressive but considering being FWD based the Jag was more impressive to me because it seemed the VW needed higher revs and had more wheel spin.
The Touareg isn't FWD based at all. It's full time 4WD with a 50/50 distribution all the time. If it was equipped with the 4Xmotion it also has a locker or multiple lockers from factory.
I found myself stuck in an ascent with my 2014 Montero Sport - without traction control and no rear axle diff lock. Learnt a thing or two, and this vid confirms it.
Great video as always Diyas! I wish you were dubbing the whole video and not only the intro and outro. By far the most surprising vehicle was the X5. This thing is almost 20 years old and still has one of the best traction control! Really impressive.
I have both solid axle and independent suspension, I guess the modern ones are nice instead of solid axle, solid axle just provides that confidence and bitter economy for most of the situations out there.
Let me see, you folks are conducting an off road, Hill climbing test with supposed SUV's and/or crossovers with standard highway/radial tires? Now that was genius! Essentially, you've turned all those 4 wheel drive vehicles into overblown station wagons in offroad conditions. Thank God the ground had not been rain-soaked! Now that would have been a real comedy show guys! Highway radials in hilly off-road conditions...wow, who could possibly have predicted your results!!?? 🤣👍...Now I have not even mentioned proper engineered spatial clearance between tires, chassis and the ground. Most of the vehicles in your test are SUV's for advertising purposes only. But again, place highway radials on real SUV's and you will still end up with a good comedy show. Thanks for the laughs guys!
One of the best off-road Video. Germans has more advanced AWD and traction control system at earliest years than the rest considering that BMW 2002 to a 2014 Toyota Prado. But why is Audi not included?
This was enraging to watch. As a proud GX460 owner I'm glad the Prado and it's bigger brother LC 200 made up that little patch of dirt with ease no thanks to the drivers constantly stopping mid obstacle or right before it. I've taken much steeper obstacles with loose rocks no less in the GX and it would just eat it whole and ask for more, but you never stop or mash the throttle, the drivers were terrible. And no suprise all the street suvs barely made it.
Bro, but they made it anyway. Tiguan doesnt have even half of your GX's engine capacity, no fancy offroad stuff, cost like 1/3 of GX and the final result is the same xd So sorry mate, you can cheer yourself up but as we can see these small street suvs will be better all purpose vehicles than Land Cruisers or G classes for men with 'short problem'.
Many 4WDs can be drastically improved offroad by simply adding lockers and/or a winch. Many AWDs don't have the option of adding lockers, and no winchmounts may be available. Lunchbox lockers for something like a Jeep TJ are just a few hundred $$ per axle diff. 4Low also allows more of the engine's torque to get to the axles. The best option seems to be a Selectrac Wrangler Rubicon...AWD for snowy roads, and 4Low w/lockers and articulating solid axles for offroad. These TCS AWDs that are covered in plastic just seem like a bad idea for technical offroading. 'Seems you could easily destroy your brakes, tires, trans, bumpers, etc. I have skids, AT tires, and a winch for my 2016 AWD Crosstrek. I don't expect it to be a decent offroader until rockers and a rear locker are installed. Still, I don't know that my center diff will always clamp well enough to take full advantage of the rear locker, and steel bumpers are needed to avoid crunch damage.
For me biggest surprise was 1.8T with more then 300hp 😮 A racket 🚀 But best was BMW X5 2002 V8. Amazing car concept. I'm going to surf some used car for me now 😃
The 2019 Pajero Sport needed better tires, if it had that, it would have breezed through this challenge easier than it did. Also, you should have had a 2003-2006 Gen 3 Pajero/Montero with Super-Select 2. Its traction control system would have easily walked through this.
Great video. I have always been a fan of low range. Guess because I grew up in a rural area and learnt early how to always take the best lines . But truth be told, from this video it seems that traction control is more important than low range. If both are in place, its a cake walk. Thanks for this video. Subscribed.
Im czech so seeing the stock Yeti perform decently was definitely nice. But also sad, since i used to own a 4th gen Legacy, which was not an offroad vehicle, but it never felt out of its depths in mud or deep snow, these new Subarus feel super neutered.
That 2012 7 seater Land Cruiser with long wheel base just cruised like an absolute king 👑

The only thing that would absolutely dumpster it off road is a land rover, if you can get a similar age one out of the mechanics shop that is.

This is xdrive version after 2004
The Toureg and X5 really surprised me… a great result for both.
The XC90 really disappointed me considering it is so expensive.
Tuareg and X5 do have Torsen, so basically best AWD ever (Audi quattro)
First of all the xc90 its not meant for offroad, its a luxury road car
The award goes for LANDCRUSIER 200 , TOURAEG and X5
That 4.8is X5 is BADASS! On 20” wide street tires no less.
It was co developed with the Range Rover so i expected it to do quite well. The engines are the same ones offered when the L322 was on sale
Yes, I was especially curious how the X5 would perform, and whether it was a 4.6is or a 4.8is (with xDrive).. I noticed the video states it is a 4.6is, but it does appear to be a 4.8is from the headlights.. If it is a 4.6is, I’m especially impressed. On 315 tires no less!

Hopefully they'll go back to hydrokinematic transmissions and use Aisin automats if Toyota are serious about owning them.

You took your sweet time to post this video but we appreciate you for what you do.

In this test we can clearly see that something as simple as a real difflock is essential to off road driving
Not at all. A diff lock isn’t needed in anything but the most extreme situations. Also a front diff lock is more effective in most situations to Pull you out rather than push you out.

Bring the 10 cylinder 5.0 Touareg and see it make this look so easy.
Yes
Many 4WDs can be drastically improved offroad by simply adding lockers and/or a winch. Many AWDs don't have the option of adding lockers, and no winchmounts may be available.
Lunchbox lockers for something like a Jeep TJ are just a few hundred $$ per axle diff.
4Low also allows more of the engine's torque to get to the axles.
The best option seems to be a Selectrac Wrangler Rubicon...AWD for snowy roads, and 4Low w/lockers and articulating solid axles for offroad.
These TCS AWDs that are covered in plastic just seem like a bad idea for technical offroading. 'Seems you could easily destroy your brakes, tires, trans, bumpers, etc.
I have skids, AT tires, and a winch for my 2016 AWD Crosstrek. I don't expect it to be a decent offroader until rockers and a rear locker are installed. Still, I don't know that my center diff will always clamp well enough to take full advantage of the rear locker, and steel bumpers are needed to avoid crunch damage.
I was surprised by the poor work of subaru outback and the good work of skoda, great video .. thank you.
X5, tuareg and land cruiser 💪💪💪
For me biggest surprise was 1.8T with more then 300hp 😮 A racket 🚀
But best was BMW X5 2002 V8. Amazing car concept.
I'm going to surf some used car for me now 😃
X5 sounds dope
thanks for the video, keep it up
The 2019 Pajero Sport needed better tires, if it had that, it would have breezed through this challenge easier than it did. Also, you should have had a 2003-2006 Gen 3 Pajero/Montero with Super-Select 2. Its traction control system would have easily walked through this.
Not to mention the rear diff lock
Yeah, a proper 2nd gen Pajero could have nailed it. Properly equipped 3rd and facelift 3rd models could have made a very easy job of it.
i think new pajero sport really needs a bigger v6 engine and at least 260 hp.
@@subieonelove2802 💯 agree.
One of the best 4WD SYSTEM FOR SURE . UNDERATED AF ❤
Great video. I have always been a fan of low range. Guess because I grew up in a rural area and learnt early how to always take the best lines .
But truth be told, from this video it seems that traction control is more important than low range.
If both are in place, its a cake walk.
Thanks for this video.

I ama subaru outback fan and I am here to outrage.
OUTRAGE!
😂😂
Get yourself the Outbreak Weirdness 😁
Отличное знания языка Диас ! Вы мастер своего дела !!!
Good content, looks very easy and interesting. Loaded CVT - as always, nothing can.
Thanks for your feedback! What cars would you like to see on this obstacle?
@@SUVBattle Can you get your hands on a Subaru Forester XT 2014-2017?
Land Cruiser = King 🙌 of all time......
Im czech so seeing the stock Yeti perform decently was definitely nice.
But also sad, since i used to own a 4th gen Legacy, which was not an offroad vehicle, but it never felt out of its depths in mud or deep snow, these new Subarus feel super neutered.
subaru outback wilderrnes je jiná pohádka :)
Dude stock yeti dont have 340hp.
That Touareg TDI in low range laid down the law!!! I'm sooooo disappointed VW removed diesel cars from north America, they were the best!
