Add a small incline or wet snow and NOTHING will get you through really deep snow apart from those speciality Toyota trucks with those $1000 per tire balloon tires (top gear polar special) . I see massive SUVs stuck all the time here in CO. People you can't defy the laws of physics. Of course snow tires will help on ice and keep you on the road but really deep snow, forget about it!
@JacanaProductions That's probably more because most SUVs do not have locking differentials for the 4WD system, and as a result, the torque goes to the wheels with the least amount of traction (when you see say the left front wheel spinning and the right rear wheel or vice versa or only the left wheels or only right wheels spinning).
@WheelsRCool Think it's more physics, search for some monster lifted trucks here on youtube with lockable hubs etc, they still get stuck if the snow is really deep. Even with shAWD where you can put 100% if the torque to a single wheel give the Acura deep enough snow and you'll get stuck.
In deep snow it would be better to use mud and ruts (or even sand) setting since in gravel, grass and sand mode traction control is extremely restrictive (to prevent wheel slip) but in soft snow you need wheel slip.
Only one pair of chains? and yes it is necessary when OEM tires for this vehicle are All Season , not All Terrain M&S :) No worries, I have never seen a new one of these off -road ever in person and hardly on youtube either, that is why there is the Bowler! The all state police deal with rear wheel drive Crown Victoria's on snow and ice, yes sir! and they often pick people up from their ditched SUV's. Just a reminder winter is just around the corner!
Everything that you just said is wrong! The RR doesn't need the chains, and could blow through there if the instructor wasn't telling him what to do and go slow. And NO, an RR is much safer than a shitty Subaru produced at a high capacity plant, and no, just the othe year Jaguar tied with Buick for the #1 spot in reliability and Land Rover is Jaguars sister company. Land Rover uses Jaguar engines and electronics perfectly modified for off roading. Fuck You!
@hazemvirus lockers and tires make all the difference... as does the driver... as you saw there is a way to get through that.. and i got more clearance than that car.. don't get me wrong its a great car.. but i wanna see it do somthin more impressive
@xmodrock there is a reason they call Range Rover the God of off road driving, i've been in the cayenne turbo and this one, that one was great but this didnt even get close to get stuck, search some videos or look for dealer or even that have that kinda test drive, trust me you will be impressed
Excellent video. Pushing thru that snow, at a very reasonable speed, is not something that most vehicles can do...not for any real distance. It's one thing to push thru a short run with enough speed and momentum, but pushing thru long distances of deep snow is not something your average 4x4 or AWD "suv" can handle. Hummer H1's and Land Rovers...top of the heap!
@coolguy125 i went through 3 or more feet of snow in my old 79 scottsdale custom deluxe, and plowed through some 4 foot drifts . of course it sat just a wee bit higher than sock and had super swampers lol. gotta love those old gm trucks though. dont make them like they used to, real shame.
@alanack67 yeah i know the 4x4 versions of those trucks were like tanks. i want another one but either they are so rusty you could get tetanus just by looking at them or they are in good shape or restored and they want an arm and a leg for them.
snow chains....hahahahaha wtf. Ditch those all-season conticraps and get some snow chains. You don't need a 100 grand RR to get through that. My driveway sometimes gets deeper drifts than that.
"You're trying to pack it down, you're trying to knead the dough. You tested the waters. You don't want to be aggressive, but maybe a little assertive. Keep it steady. Try and build momentrum gradually. Gradually try and build up. Its a crescendo. It's a crescendo of momentum!"
I used to have a 06 grand cherokee & let me tell you.. I AM NOT ONE BIT IMPRESSED.. I used to literally climb mountains..no chains, no shovel.. just good pair of tires. you really don't get what your paying for in this car
@mellowdalyricist I too have 05' grand cherokee. 2.25" lift kit with BFG's. It has never come close to getting stuck in Colorado mountain snow. But you have to also respect the Range Rovers off-road capabilities. You absolutely get what you are paying for. Super luxurious interiors with lots of power. The diff's are nuclear-bomb proof. Like you said, its all about tire choice and these guys had winter tires. They were just being pussies and the instructor was a crazy old man.
@sspope If you think this is the BEST off road vehicle then you clearly have never seen a Jeep with 37" tires or a Hummer with Mattraks, I have crossed a river in a really old Land Cruiser & hauled big logs up extremely steep hills in a old Tundra.
You obviously saw this video & ate it all up! but this is NOT the best money could buy. personally the only videos I have is of my cherokee driving around rural roads but if you want proof just browse around youtube!
@ndyt It's not a comparison, it's an advertisement. The video is advertising the impressive ability of the 2011 Range Rover to traverse pretty damn deep snow... and that it does!
I found the video to prove the 2011 Range Rover as being quite impressive with it's capability to move through deep snow.
@ndyt I live in Norway,and i can tell you that an Accord with chains could NOT do that.But it\s not a superfantasticspectacular acchievement either..... Any good REAL 4x4 should be able to do the same.(not a Toyota urban cruiser with 4wd i mean)
@jwatwater Sure you can, My point wasn't about which venues the car fits in at. It was about the capabilites of the vehicles in snow. A subaru forester would plow through that with 4 season tires and you wouldn't need training from a Scary old man to do it without getting stuck. Range Rover $94,000 Subaru Forester $21,000 and its not a 2 day wait and a $800 price tag every time it needs service also the subaru is more reliable handles better it's better on fuel and is safer so make your choice
@silvershadow169 Haha, I never really noticed the first time around, but really, they're using spade-head dirt shovels... fucking stupid. But I guess you use what you got, even when you got a Range Rover...
Lmao the old guy was funny.
