I'm in love with my 2021 110 Defender, but man that Range Rover sure looks nice!! Too nice to be on the trails, but impressive to see it handle like that
Really cool off road head-to-head. Really want the Hummer EV and Rivian to go head-to-head on this course and see how much range is left after doing some off-roading. Thank you carwow.
It hurts to see the Range Rover lose on any of the obstacles. And more so when it’s damaged in any way! But, seeing Matt lose, 😊 my day is made. Good day everyone.
Both of these vehicles are absolutely stunning. In my opinion, for that classic, timeless look and feel, the Range Rover. For a more rugged feel, the Defender.
I can't say which one of those cars performed better, because you both made mistakes, so it's really not possible to say which was better. My advice is to set up both cars in the same way, then we could know something more, perhaps. I know Mat that you always want to win, but it doesn't work always like that 😄 Thanks for the video.
For off road a normal Defender would be better. The V8 seems to be set up for on road stability at the small expense of off road prowess. Day to day you'd want a Range Rover though since it will be far more quiet and refined. Not that a Defender isn't.
The tests that were done incorrectly with the Defender should've been done again, we need to see the full capabilities of both cars when used properly, and not when drivers select the wrong modes
Wow! Another awesome challenge to watch. I totally think the Defender should have won since it's mainly built for off-road hustle than a Range Rover that sways between luxury and off-road! All in all, it was so lovely to watch and thanks a lot guys for sharing an amazing challenge!!
@@TheFlyingClutchman such a strange thing to do. Why do they put 2 identical products in the market. Wouldn't people choose the range rover over the defender. It has a timeless design, looks modern, is more powerful, has the luxury, relatively same price and similar off road capabilities.

A suggestion for a way to set up the scoring system, how about each cars start at the maximum amout of points for all the challenges and the aim is to work their way down so that by the end of it all we can easily tell which car did everything flawlessly(assuming a car had no points at the end of it all) and that way we can compare it to other cars that weren't in the same video as lower points are easier to remember than higher ones cause we dont know what the upper limit is. Cheers!
@@1NG_ If a car wins they get 3 points. If its a draw they both get 2 points and if one loses they only get 1 point. Obviously if they fail to even complete the challenge they get 0 points.
@@TheIceMurder2 that's even better, though I'd have preferred 3 for a win, 1 for a draw, 0 for loss, and - 1 for failure to even complete the test. This way, the gap for the winner should be substantially bigger than one scraping through the end through endless draws giving them 2 points
I did an off-road course with Discovery, Discovery Sports and Land Rovers. The Sports couldn't handle the really rough stuff but The Range Rovers did everything that the Defender's could. Impressive!
Even thought I’m not a Jaguar-Land Rover person, I’d still go with the Defender overall when it comes to off-roading. It just has that off-road look and capability to it. The Range Rover is just too luxurious to off-road imo ~
I think that's the whole point of range rover loads of luxury brands make 4x4s but the range rover can go anywhere if I had that sort of cash and wanted 4x4 SUV what's the point of getting a Merc, bmw, Audi 4x4 when they can't off-road
Great pair of off-roaders, based on the look alone, I would get the Defender. It would be so interesting if you can make a video explaining how the different driving modes do to the car in more detail. The input you got from your expert are priceless, good for a dedicated episode.
I know it is a off road test. But would have liked to see more road driving tests on and off road. More realistic for me. Gravel road corner speed handling . High speed etc
I agree with the comments that both cars should've been using the same settings for the tests for an accurate comparison. That said if the tests were harder perhaps the defenders more aggressive departure angle would've given it the edge. I definitely enjoyed seeing it blasting up the hill on the last challenge. Qn is does the defender have a fridge in the arm rest.
Love your videos, pretty much all about it. Today, however, I found something off for the very first time ever: Normally, if you do drag races in a straight line, if a driver did an obvious mistake during launch, or some system wasn't hooked up properly, you always repeat the race and do a 2 out of 3. Would have LOVED to see an even comparison up- and downhill with really ALL systems activated properly in both cars. Too bad, missed chance for an epic comparison... Maybe you apply the same standards to all your different competitions and comparisons ;) Anyway, thanks for all the great content!!
Your are correct about Superchargers delivering nearly instant torque and power. A Turbo has to spool up a bit & it S#its where it eats... Turbo'd engines are better at getting spooled up better now than in the 90's and 2000's but a Supercharger is nearly instant. My 14.5 V8Supercharged "Tuned" is sick in acceleration. Both Rovers looked about dead even "Off-Road"... I'd be proud to own either of them.
Having had Range Rovers for 11 years, I decided to order a Defender P400 90 in 2021. After waiting 9 months and running it for six months, the conclusion: it ain’t a Range Rover! Sold it; bought a Range Rover…….best car in the world!

To compare these properly you need to have the settings set up the same way for each challenge and, ideally, use a single driver. If you want to use two drivers, they should each do every challenge in both vehicles. That said, fun video! :)
Would love to see how the Evoque compares the full size Range Rover on this course I think the results could be surprising with the Evoque short wheelbase and lighter weight
You need some massive dunes, a whole lot of muddy paddocks and deep river crossings. I think then the differences will become more apparent. Defender for the win.
Interestingly I work on these cars for a living and the suspension on the defender is very different, the defenders suspension is fairly similar to that on a Range Rover sport although it doesn’t have the same clever anti roll bars which help with articulation as they can be disconnected electronically, whereas the defender has old fashioned fixed anti roll bars therefore reducing articulation, they also don’t drive anything like a Range Rover although they’re pretty good still
Im curious how theyll hold up for reliability in 10 years, and what the cost to keep on the road will be at that point. My £3k 15 year old disco 3 is still rolling and minimal repair costs so far.
You should do a classic version of this. An old Range Rover classic and a early 110 or 109 landrover. These modem limos are too posh to push in a race.
was recently up at Lake Tahoe, CA going snowboarding. Used the heck out of my Discovery's flip-down platform for sitting on getting ready and changing afterword. Made me realize I'd never buy a Defender with its stupid swing door and no place to sit. I only mention this here because the LR Disco is always ignored.
Hi Matt, You always go last and it generally works out for you. Next time why don't you start or randomly select the first to go on each challenge (except hill descent control and climb)?
for the team to be able to have any days off , they must be shooting a bunch of these on a single day. Imagine being Mat , a tough day at work doing this ..
Mat you cheat with the hill decent(as you always do like earlier). you should have allowed him again with a similar setting as yours. over all both are awesome cars & you are one hell of a good entertainer
I know that lads love this channel because of Mat and his pals, the banter and the jokes, but I love cars just a teeeeny bit more. So I'm starting to get an uncomfortable late-series Top Gear vibe about Carwow. Remember how the early, pre-Clarkson Top Gear was all about cars and motoring? And then, when Clarkson arrived and took over like a naughty schoolboy, the programme became a series all about lads mucking about? I preferred the original stuff. Carwow is increasingly about people and personalities; the cars are props for their antics. Hugely entertaining, of course. Very popular. Lots of love, lots of likes. Good for business, and massively cool for 'teenaged' lads (aged from 10 to 80!) who live out their car fantasies through Mat and his millionaire mates... But it's becoming a bit too much like Top Gear for me. This episode was a good example: the focus was on the battle between drivers, not the cars. Heck, pretty soon we'll have jokes about Mat (whoops, I mean Richard Hammond) getting his teeth done because fake looks are more important than real cars. Sigh. If this were a pre-Clarkson show there'd have been no points, no scores, no need for 'Jeremy' [Mat!] to beat 'James' [Nick?] by using different styles and settings and techniques. We'd have had one driver testing both cars and getting the best out of them to provide what this channel's restless 'bro' and 'bruv' drifting demographic would call "A really boring result." They want drama and human interest. I want cars. Just cars. Mat could have driven both of them himself - against the clock if necessary. Nick's a nice chap, but I'm not bothered WHO wins in these challenges; I just want to see cars doing car stuff. Naturally, nobody reading this will agree with that. That's not how Carwow works. I'm a lone voice, and this channel's millions of fans and Subscribers want to see drag-races and burnouts, doughnuts and stunts by people they know and love. They want Top Gear Reborn. They've already crowned Mat as the new Clarkson. And let us never mention the Hamster's expensive white teeth ever again. 🐁👀 More cars, please. More wow. Less Clarkson.😉

No comment on “driver error” Matt, at least Nick didn’t damage his car when he made a settings error.
Hi Matt, You always go last and it generally works out for you. Next time why don't you start or randomly select the first to go on each challenge (except hill descent control and climb)?
Enjoyed these races.
Congratulations you have been selected among my luckiest🎉 shortlisted winner.

Those two cars are just awesome in the offroad even with the low profile tyres..
It would have been nice to see the defender do the hill descent with the proper settings again.
for the team to be able to have any days off , they must be shooting a bunch of these on a single day.
Imagine being Mat , a tough day at work doing this ..
Range rover is the best combination of luxury +power+off-roading+killer looks
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Mat you cheat with the hill decent(as you always do like earlier). you should have allowed him again with a similar setting as yours. over all both are awesome cars & you are one hell of a good entertainer
Off-roading = Defender
Luxury = land rover range rover autobiography
I know that lads love this channel because of Mat and his pals, the banter and the jokes, but I love cars just a teeeeny bit more. So I'm starting to get an uncomfortable late-series Top Gear vibe about Carwow.
Remember how the early, pre-Clarkson Top Gear was all about cars and motoring? And then, when Clarkson arrived and took over like a naughty schoolboy, the programme became a series all about lads mucking about? I preferred the original stuff.
Carwow is increasingly about people and personalities; the cars are props for their antics. Hugely entertaining, of course. Very popular. Lots of love, lots of likes. Good for business, and massively cool for 'teenaged' lads (aged from 10 to 80!) who live out their car fantasies through Mat and his millionaire mates...
But it's becoming a bit too much like Top Gear for me. This episode was a good example: the focus was on the battle between drivers, not the cars. Heck, pretty soon we'll have jokes about Mat (whoops, I mean Richard Hammond) getting his teeth done because fake looks are more important than real cars. Sigh.
If this were a pre-Clarkson show there'd have been no points, no scores, no need for 'Jeremy' [Mat!] to beat 'James' [Nick?] by using different styles and settings and techniques. We'd have had one driver testing both cars and getting the best out of them to provide what this channel's restless 'bro' and 'bruv' drifting demographic would call "A really boring result."
They want drama and human interest. I want cars. Just cars.
Mat could have driven both of them himself - against the clock if necessary. Nick's a nice chap, but I'm not bothered WHO wins in these challenges; I just want to see cars doing car stuff.
Naturally, nobody reading this will agree with that. That's not how Carwow works. I'm a lone voice, and this channel's millions of fans and Subscribers want to see drag-races and burnouts, doughnuts and stunts by people they know and love. They want Top Gear Reborn. They've already crowned Mat as the new Clarkson. And let us never mention the Hamster's expensive white teeth ever again. 🐁👀
More cars, please. More wow. Less Clarkson.😉
Would love to know what the repair bill for the range rover is.
Next time you guys have a tie, you should do a Road Drag race as the decider ;)
Can’t wait to see Car Wow review Toyota Prius 2023 🎉
The tech on these cars is epic 😁👍
