  • i honestly dont get it, since when do offroad vehicels have rear wheel driving? dont they have 4x4 or x-drive?

  • THe Volvos pwned em all!

  • За рулем Ауди еблан какой-то неопытный...

  • every car but the audi got a rollling start wtf

  • questi sono gli effetti della cosiddetta "pigrizia del differenziale"... basterebbe un sistema elettronico che frena le ruote con maggiore velocità angolare, mi stupisco che il sofisticato sistema di trazione quattro ne sia sprovvisto

  • I think the Q5 driver may have taken the traction control off. Drivers who are used to sports cars will do that because they can predict the traction better, but for and AWD system you need traction control on if you're going to go over obstacles like that. The systems differentials tend to send power through the path of least resistance, which means as soon as you have a wheel with absolutely no traction it has no resistance. Wheel in air = no movement. Traction control would prevent that.

  • wow audi...

  • LOL even a peugeot made it through! =D

  • хаха в първия момент си помислих, че ми се е престорило, че съм чул български :D

  • i think the embarrasing moment was fos the man at the wheel

  • The difference is that the other cars have more speed up the ramp, you can see that on all the other cars also the rear wheel that's in the air is spinning, like on the audi. The wheel with the least grip get's the torque. and when 2 wheels are in the air, it's just spinning.

    What they could do is hit the brake and give some gas at the same time and it would probably climb up fine.

    But few of these cars hase locked diffs, meaning they all would do approxematly the same in this situation.

  • I dont understand these gay 4WD systems. What's the programing problem?? IF one wheel speed > other wheel speed.. THEN apply brake...

    What's so hard?? Is the brakes to weak?? No.. probably not.. they have power to stop the car from high speeds and squeeze the brake discs very hard. So really.. WHERE is the design problem..?!

  • well since all others had forward momentum i dont think its is very fair...still no excuse!!

  • A Honda Pilot is way better

  • the kuga is a nice little car

  • Seems like its not 4 wheel drive?

  • sending power to the wheel with least amount of grip LOL

  • Let those orange and white pathfinders in the background have a go. 

  • Volvo came up right after and crawled over it like it was nothing. Even the other brands were effortless lol

  • my favorite suv is the lexus rx 350

  • Comment removed

  • This has Quattro? Why is the back wheel spinning in the air and front wheel giving no power?

  • Момче, браво за видеото! Хареса ми, че показа и другите как го минават.

  • why the fuck the front right wheel isn't pulling??????

  • fakeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    

  • This Audi hasnt got 4 Wheel Drive.

  • @Pianestro it is a quattro, look closely in the grill there is a tiny silver stripe and on audis that means its a quattro badge. i believe that the driver did something wrong or it just broke down.

  • x drive rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • What can I say... Should've gone to Land Rover! :-D

  • diff locks needed much?

  • stupid! dealership that sells volvo,peugeot,ford. crap!

  • the differetial should transfer the power to the wheel with more traction,power on a loose wheel is useless

  • the man must have been fired :D

  • drivers fault he didn't have enough momentum

  • Acura MDX SH-AWD > No problem at all!!

  • volvo:>

    

  • fail.

  • audi ゴミ過ぎるwwwwwwww

    情弱の買うクルマだな。

  • Why central Torsen doesn't lock when needed here?

  • bad driver

  • audi halt mehr schein als sein

  • Da sieht man wie der fahrer extra bremst so ein fake

  • quattro is awd not meant for this, you want capability get a jeep with locking diffs or a prissy range rover, shit even a pickup will do fine

  • @CAgunNut or one of these other suv's that seemed to have no trouble.

  • @shalcall Lol even the Peugeot did well

  • @CAgunNut the locking diff is on the VW version like my Touareg

  • "Vorsprung durch technik"

  • is it me or the rear door of that q7 say top gear live?

  • where is the 4wd

  • Try again with ESP OFF !!!!

  • a fwd with locking differentials would do that without problems

  • What areoplane7 says its wrong. When you apply full power, traction control or other system like that, try to keep traction for a few seconds and then disconnect itself. If they don't disconnect itself, probably you will have over heat brakes and nothing else. If you watch the video you see that other vehicles brakes the wheel in the air emulating a differencial lock. Audi don't brake wheel, so it lost all power (it doesn't matter 100 hp o 300 hp) by the air wheel.

  • "im not buying that car" yea because you know you probably drive on roads like that everyday and it is crucial for you to be able to drive over that kind of terrain...i think not

  • embarressing is just the stupid acting of the dumb american idiots. this videos are totaly fake.

  • fuck off quattro

  • they were all going too fast, even a wagon with no engine could go over this if you push it fast enough.

  • Its not a 4x4. Just another awd car.

  • Bad car Audi !

  • Embarrasing moment NOT for the new Q5 but for it "driver" (just a dumbass)

  • maybe it has no offroad traction control like in landrovers.

  • I never really understood the point of crossover vehicles like the XC70 but cars like the Q5, Q3, Tiguan really really have no point.

  • St*pid overpriced cr*p, buy a toyota instead, they never fail.

  • @Lavalambtron except when the brakes fail then and the chairman of the company has to explain to the world that all their manufacturing was screwed up - would that be the same Toyota?

  • Haha, in the background is a Kuga, which has done a good job xD

  • most awd cars do NOT have "limited slip". in fact, only certain subaru's and SUV's come equipped with them. what none of these drivers realize is how to drive an awd system, holding the brakes to prevent excess wheelslip and send power to the other wheels.

  • where is the Touareg - the king off the road?

  • @lardauk HA! Range Rover is the king of off road.

  • это подстава!!!!! ауди рулит!!!! а конкуренты от зависти делают такие тесты, отключая при этом АБС

  • Obviously this Audi does not have quattro, or settings for this road course was wrong. Why? No matter anymore that Audi failed this obstacle, while others pass the same, but at the moment when quattro should kick in using other wheels that have traction, my eyes only see rear wheel spinning, while front axle is dead.

  • Thumbs up if you think this Audi looks just like VW Touareg..

  • @tnycman try Tiguan. The Touareg shares with the Q7 & cayenne. the T'reg has locking diff.

  • Comment removed

  • @l45key must be a time machine then as this vid was made 2 years before the Q3 was invented.

  • This is why I drive a defender !!!

  • Volvo times 2 for the win!

  • OOOO sux 

  • i agree it is driver error..im in the market for a new car n the Q5 is staying on my list...

  • The Audi didn't approach with as much momentum so the outcome was inevitable!

  • 173 people just bought a q5.

  • @joop226 it's not the car's fault for being driven by a retard.

  • Volvo kicks ass!!!

  • Where is that?

  • "Волво-то не ще да го качва повече!" :D

  • now thats what I call intelligent quattro awd system XD

  • It was driver's mistake, he was stop at the ramp, and when he want to move on, the car would not to go. All the others car was at the speed when they climb at te ramp, quattro is one of the best drive in the world, although I am not a big fan of audi :)

  • Clearly that's driver's fault.

  • well he was just slower then the others.

  • Fucking Audi haha

    

  • acutally, audi fails in a lot in this stuff

  • yhaha i bet my skoda yeti tsi 4x4 could have done it! :D

  • The Volvo station wagon pwned them all, besides the Peugeot which just, scooted on by unnoticed. SUVs are hugely pretentious chick/housewife vehicles ONLY driven on pavement to work, grocery store, school, and mall. And that's all they'll EVER be.

  • hahahahahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

  • driver's fault

  • @flavius22 yea everybody went into with speed the guy driving the audi didnt

  • Audis problem is the Torsen differential. It doesn`t work when 1 tyre is on air, 1 tyre stands on ice and when you want to drive backward. But if you want to climb a hill on snow or something no other 4x4 is better than Torsen differential, because its a Self-locking mechanism. X-drive not :))

    mfg

  • Audi Sux

    And Quattro, too ;)

    Get a BMW with XDrive and u will not have this problem ;)

  • @ulqin2008 X6 that doesn't go up slippery hills? Get a Rangie.

  • this thing does not have locking diffs.

    It just showas that Quattro does not work as most poeple does expect.......

  • well, it's not audi's fault, i think the guy in the q5 didn't lock the differential's! ;-D

  • @OttifantxD: I'm afraid the Q5 does not have any differential to lock - "Quattro" is just an AWD (all wheel drive) system and not a true 4x4 or 4WD system like a Range Rover or Toyota Land Cruiser or any other off-road vehicle.

  • @neverhearof ....well, you`re right (I did a little research)^^ but a Q5 isn't build for driving in extreme offroad, it's just a urban vehicle like most of the suv's....But when you're driving in snow and ice, there's nothing better than Quattro, believe me ;-)

  • @neverhearof Funny the bigger version does center and rear lock in my T'reg

  • аудито неще да го качва повече :D

  • audi sucks

  • Oh so that's what a Quattro is.

    One that cannot conquer a puny ramp.

    Btw, doesn't it have differentials?...

  • @dahgutone not in the sense of it's bigger brother the 7L series, as in Touareg

  • AHAHHAHAHAHA SHITTY QUATTRO AT ITS BEST

  • @UzzyFuzzyy aha a its good

  • XC70 better then Q5, that is embarasing for audi

  • It's like "HE FINALLY F**KIN' GOT OVER IT!!!!!"

  • 0:45 is this the famous "quattro"?... buy a defender poser!

  • How about putting the ESP in offroad mode? It doesn't even brake on the wheel in the air, no wonder it can't get any torque to the ground with an open rear differential, torsen center differential and zero grip at one wheel. Allow the electronics to break that wheel and you get torque at the other wheels again.

  • bulgari!

  • Just switch on the lock diff............

  • Get a Land Rover.

  • what do you expect? this car is built to get to the supermarket and back home ...

  • @MrRipthechecker don't forget the school run that can be pretty challenging!

  • @MrRipthechecker but still should have 4wd no? all the others can do it. 

  • @MrRipthechecker Well... If they know how the torsen center diff of this car worked and how to drive it, it would be no problem to drive over this ramp.

    Drivers error all the way!

  • not balanced car.. and even torque isnt helping the car to push.. bad audi.. only design.. only for city driving..

  • bad driver. must use some momentum and offroad mode on to avoid some of the ESP

  • In my own opinion best one was a blue suv and second one was a volvo xc70

  • lol u got to be stupied to belive that,the driver is retard trying to roll ower it :D get some speed like volvo did it. nthing embarrasing just shity driver!

  • wtf are you brits thinking, these cars aren't even designed to go off road.

  • this was drivers error. all cars were cheating, building up momentum before touching the ramp. they should have gotten to the ramp and stop while still climbing with one wheel in the air, and THEN AND ONLY THEN try to move forward. test of traction control and awd systems. audi tried to do it right, and it would have made it if driver applied full power so traction control could do it's job properly.other cars didnt even try. they just "glided" over the problem. this video is a pure lie.

  • @Areoplane7 right. is a conpiration. audi sucks balls and that is it.

  • @Areoplane7 i agree

    

  • my God! The Q5 is a sedan isn't it? hahaha!! Great performance Volvo XC60!

  • i bet who ever was driving that q5 was fired plus Audi is to blame as its their fault for using a non-limited slip non-locking rear differential, our suburban 4X4 has two auto locking non-limited slip diffs which is one of the better ways to go as you get good turning and really good traction when you need it

  • haha the other cars had a quattro !

  • It was an embarrasing moment for the Q5 DRIVER ,not for the car.

  • VOLVO the BEST!!!!!!! YyyAaaaahooooo

  • I think that AUDI forgot the QUATTRO!

  • Audi look bad

  • ПРИДУРОК БЛОКИРОВКУ ДИФФЕРЕНЦИАЛА ВКЛЮЧИ

  • maybe isn`t the best car but the driver is the one with problems....

  • the Q5 is too heavy in the ass. Cant get it up.

  • has nothing to do with the ability of the car. its the ability of the idiotic driver. what you failed to show is the Audi's Q5 initial approach into the ramp. All we get to see at the start is the beached Q5. complete crock of shit. all the other cars hit the ramp at speed and due to approach speeds were able to get sufficient speed to just drive over the ramp. hardly equal

  • @robbyjai has nothing to do with the ability of the car?

    lol, you can clearly see that the differential system isnt helping at all.

    real offroad cars would have driven over that ramp, with equal speed on all wheels.

  • @RobinMr292 really ??? ever been off roading ??? im guessing not. What you dont see in this video is the approach speed of the Q5. For all we know the clown could have gone up way to slow.. beached the car and left the wheels dangling in the air.. what you do see is the other cars hit the ramp with speed and make it over the ramp with very little for the awd system to do. any one could make any video to favour any point of view if they so wish. 

  • @robbyjai

    even a opel corsa can get over there with enough speed (and ground clearence). i guess the point of this "test" is to show off suspension and drivetrain abilities. apparently the Q5 failed this test. a real offroad car, or any car with a center differential locking system doesent need speed to get over there, piece of cake, guess they can idle over that ramp.

  • @RobinMr292 when WILL PEOPLE learn to read?????????? Watch the video again for fucks sake. the video starts and ALL we see is the Q5 stuck on the ramp. IT doesnt fucking prove anything. For all we know the idiot driver could have gone up that ramp slowly and got stuck. How do we know if the Q5 approached the ramp at the same speed as the other two 4wd??? WE DONT know. so dont make fucking assumptions the car is shit or not. We dont see how it goes up the ramp. its that simple.

  • @RobinMr292 and oh yeh... even an opel corsa can get over there with enough speed???? Yeh so i guess the other 2 4wd that made it over this ramp isnt very good either because they got over the ramp with enough speed. Use your fucking brain for once. Fuck people are dumb on the internet

  • @RobinMr292 one more thing. WATCH THE START Of the video. It car is obviously approaching the ramp to slow. Now watch the other two cars and see HOW quickly they approach the ramp. So NOW back to my original point. ITS NOT the fucking car thats shit. Its the fucking idiot driver.

  • @robbyjai i did read, you just didnt get my point.

    I was pointing out that a good 4x4 would have a better differetial, so it doesent spinn only on the wheel that is in the air.

    and yes,i know the other ones maybe had more speed, and that some might have failed too with less speed, but some of them with better differentials will do this easily, even while driving 1 km/h

    this ramp is supposed to test the differential locking device, Q5 fails. it has something to do with the car.

  • @RobinMr292 i dont disagree with you.. i think the 4wd differential in the Q5 could be better... but back to my original comment..the issue we are seeing here is more due to idiotic driver rather than the car

  • Lol, my Pinzgauer 4x4 laughs all these cars out!

  • thats why you should just get a Land Rover.

  • Не может быть у Ауди хуже всех!!! Какой то подъеб есть однозначно!

  • 2011 Ford explorer!!

  • I had a suzuki samurai, a daihatsu Rocky, and a Patrol (the old version) but they would all have done this better...

  • VOLVO IS THE BEST

  • Just a stupid driver. Nothing more.

  • Just a stupid driver. Nothing more.

  • if you use the brakes a bit yuo send power to the wheel with no traction as well

  • Land Rovers

  • BMW Xdrive <3

  • top gear?

  • @kelvin262681

    Top Gear live in dublin

  • @julianbalabanski

    must be James May driving :D

  • @julianbalabanski Dublin? I don't remember seeing this.

  • XC70 is brilliant

  • if you want a REAL cross-country car, which works fine on track too, there is one choice, Land, or Range rovers!! There Audis, BMWs or Mercedes cars called "jeeps", are jokes!!!

  • @TheArchie8888 You must be joking? You honestly are going to sit there and tell me a Range Rover, Land Rover Discovery or Defender are good on a track!? Range Rover sport is the only acceptable one for both, but yet, Merc/BMW/Audi SUVs are crap for both. Jeep SRT-8 or Porsche Cayenne are the best at both.

  • все представленные машины с точки зрения прохождения этого теста -ПОЛНОЕ дерьмо!!!!!!!!!!! и не в кваттре дело..... по правильному если проходить этот тест, его не пройдет ни одна из этих машин по причине отсутствия блокировки дифференциала.....машина становится как вкопанная когда по одному колесу на оси оказываются в подвешенном состоянии

  • Is that a 'Top Gear' sticker on the Audi?Why is it there

  • @Drifter9020 because it's ambitious, but rubbish?

  • All the other cars accept the audi came up with a ittle speed mongols

  • Volvo for life. 

  • Comment removed

  • my land rover could do that with all 4 wheels on the ground
