@Panthers1521 complete wrong for the hillclimb test at the beginning . Under that condition you can manage it even with slick-tires because the other side is dry asphalt.
+Asae2 no it was not compleatly dry + that is to show how the dif splits the power that hill is a big climb to do and you could not do this whit slicks and its not about the tires its about the dif on the car
@TheLaimer exactly what i was talking about u need only a locked differential so that the left tires if they spin the right ones go with them... thnx for the further explanation
@FantastyckplastycK very simple, the two left tires are on snow and the two right are on a bit wet asphalt so u could climb there with any 4x4 car u would choose , like a audi or lamborghini or whatever so the right tires would grip easily on the road
@FantastyckplastycK - Because of the summer tires that have no traction off road. It's very, very simple if you have any idea about cars. Put Geolander tires on the X6 and it performs the same way (or better) as any dedicated 4x4...
I have a long, steep driveway that's almost at the scale of San Fran's streets and I never shovel the snow or ice off of it. The xDrive in my 335i manages to get me up with no problem as long as I get a running start, lol
Yes, I heard that too, magic fairy and thousand miniature invisible dwarfs were pulling BMW down hill. The same setup is used in every other non-BMW made test!
@GCr4ckeR What you need are lockers, you can maybe climb that hill with a 2WD if it has a lock differential, but not with an AWD car without lockers, because the left wheels would just spin...
Just a question, An x6 comes factory installed with thin sports tires, and large rims, correct? the tires shown in this video are thick, meaning they are snow tires. Because they are thick rimed, does this also mean you need smaller rims so the tire fits in the wheel well? Seems odd that you need to keep four tires and rims in reserve just for winter.......
@Eliasmalak Hmmm...I was talking about Patrol Vs Pajero... Not Pajero Vs X5. Too bad i dont currently have engine on my patrol (Crack on Block so i took the engine out and im not really interested repairing it because it has 703tkm on the engine allready so currently trying to find another engine) Otherwise i could have done vid and show what Patrols all about. And the 1 and pretty much only reason i picked Patrol before Pajero is because the engine is way more realible
@AndrewParkerTV Hey no problem man, I did know too that He compared a Discovery with a X6 or at least show them both. Anyway, Range Rover and Bmw X6 are both amazing cars. I'd be happy to own one myself.
these are the .50i or the M versions (i think M because of the pipes) , so more than 400hp...try it with 30d, 35d or 35i and you will see the real result
@eskon12345 i know that patrol is a great suv too... but listen to be able to really be good on snow u need some good tyres before comparing any suv engine to the other and u need to raise your car a few centimeters too... that would make a huge difference on handling and ability to drive through snow and ice and i mean by snow not a few centimeters of it but like 50 or 60.cm... :D
that would only prove that the tires dont have any traction, it has nothing to do with the vehicle itself, so its pointless. this test was made to prove that the traction system is able to route the torque to the wheel with better grip. a regular open dif setup, even a limited slip setup would fail under this conditions.
+Gega Chiqovani that is how all cars are tested, on how the differential is divided between the wheels in such conditions. "The point of this test is to demonstrate power being transferred away from the slipping wheels and to the side that has traction. A car with an open differential and no type of traction control would just sit there and spin the tire(s) that were on the icy side." -Doctor Zaius, in one of the below comments. Please don't come back to me with stupid arguments, I don't work for BMW or any car manufacturing company for the matter of fact.
Good job BMW, but I'll stick to SH-AWD, less price, easy and cheap to maintain on the long run, better life out of engine, Naturally aspirated, reliable.
You know older subarus can do this. A lot of companies, even audi's quattro couldn't match the subaru's awd system, but now they're all catching up. I still think subaru will still do a little better, cause their's is symmetrical.
Why cant you people understand, they are not playing around this is their job. They test what happens when you comes to a situation when the traction is lost, i would not buy a car that didn't run trough thease tests. Imagine how a car not tested in thease ways would drive on snow and ice. (exuse my english, i come from sweden where they filmed this video)
@Dirtlooter the x6 looks more luxurious and welcoming.. then the x5 the x5 looks like a really nice car for a soccer mom.. haah.. the x6 has more curves.. and it looks coupish...
@Eliasmalak And based to you'r list i think you just took the oppinions of how other people think...Even the Old Range Rover's are better than Pajeros....And my oppinions are based to my own experience's. The patrol i currently have, ive had it for 11 years and it never have left me in the side of the road nor never to the forest either ;)
@eskon12345 one of the best... not :THE: best i just saw 2 x5 with snow tyres stuck while a pajero came and was able to pull em out of their situation... ;)
Best Snow Cars : Mitsubishi Pajero/Montero (and the sport one) Toyota Tacoma Chevrolet Avalanche Jeep Wrangler Toyota FJ Cruiser Jeep Grand Chrokee Range Rover (Old One) or just buy an M1 Abrams :P
This is an impressive test for traction control, and differential locks (Electronic center coupling in the BMW's case) but, its not that impressive anymore. pretty sure A kia could do this now. Leave a bmw on the tar.
oh so an x6 can make it up a hill even if two of its tires are on ice? what if i told you that a subaru can make it up a hill with all four of its tires on ice...
+Bill KIM explain bro??? or let me explain for u...x6 is much havyer so that will always make a problem for the structure of the body or under the car or the gear/ engine problems specialty the type of engine 3.0/ 3.5/ 4.0d.... the car needs a steong engine like 5.0 for example... and 5.0 engine also needs more service and more petrol than the others☺
my dad got a X6 30d and in 6 years he never changed anything fancy,just the oil and the brake pads(i dont't know if i spelled them right) so yeah... no more service than a X5
have you ever hear that you cant climb a complete icy hill (real ice not snow) without spiked tyres? - sure not. Here you should see (ok ..everybody except you) that you need an intelligent 4 wheel drive able to notice which wheel got grip and which not.
BMW X6 BEST OF ALL.. IN CITY OR OF ROADS MAKES NO DIFFERENT FOR IT..
Nice love x6

This really comes down to good tires

@AndrewParkerTV He was tested a Range rover classic not a Discoverys.
Going up and down with one side of the wheel on ice is not a big deal, my 18,000 Honda do it all the time.
Lol
These are the M versions of X5 and X6, probably equipped with performance tyres which makes this even more impressive!
Just a question, An x6 comes factory installed with thin sports tires, and large rims, correct? the tires shown in this video are thick, meaning they are snow tires. Because they are thick rimed, does this also mean you need smaller rims so the tire fits in the wheel well? Seems odd that you need to keep four tires and rims in reserve just for winter.......

This true testing proves JC's Top gear is
@geati6783 it's right
Bimmer for life
@AndrewParkerTV Hey no problem man, I did know too that He compared a Discovery with a X6 or at least show them both.
Anyway, Range Rover and Bmw X6 are both amazing cars. I'd be happy to own one myself.
X-Drive: Safely Fun drive
You guys have to show this to Top Gear
@FantastyckplastycK it was just a show. That X6 had summer tires.
Gelsin Bizim Mesken Bayırlarını Çıksın Karda Da Görek Amg :D
these are the .50i or the M versions (i think M because of the pipes) , so more than 400hp...try it with 30d, 35d or 35i and you will see the real result
they are having good time :D
@eskon12345 i know that patrol is a great suv too... but listen to be able to really be good on snow u need some good tyres before comparing any suv engine to the other and u need to raise your car a few centimeters too... that would make a huge difference on handling and ability to drive through snow and ice and i mean by snow not a few centimeters of it but like 50 or 60.cm... :D
because the wheels on the right side was still on pavement, not ice/snow. if all wheels were on snow/ice/grass, itd be a different story
that would only prove that the tires dont have any traction, it has nothing to do with the vehicle itself, so its pointless. this test was made to prove that the traction system is able to route the torque to the wheel with better grip. a regular open dif setup, even a limited slip setup would fail under this conditions.
Guys guys we all know bmw= Brings me woman. So what? ITS THE BEST BMW FOR EVER.
nice tyres.
@Eliasmalak Pajero the best??? How about go try Old Nissan Patrol those are just beast's ;)
one side of the car is on ice but another is on dry road. I think it does not count...
+Gega Chiqovani that is how all cars are tested, on how the differential is divided between the wheels in such conditions.

Thats the point.
Good job BMW, but I'll stick to SH-AWD, less price, easy and cheap to maintain on the long run, better life out of engine, Naturally aspirated, reliable.
nice grip!
is is bad for the transmission to shift into reverse like that during the skidding turn?
Does the black one X6 ? Because they deleted the brand at the back of the car. !
You know older subarus can do this. A lot of companies, even audi's quattro couldn't match the subaru's awd system, but now they're all catching up. I still think subaru will still do a little better, cause their's is symmetrical.
that probably is possible in a 1 series with x drive as well, or?
If you guys are jealous, rather leave no comment at all! You guys funny..
@mudpluga I agree. I bet it will not make it up with all 4 on ice.
good video!
4:40 Was Sweeeet!
4:40
someone remind me of the time i have ever came across a road tht is half frozen... thats right NEVER!
what wheels and tires is the X5 using?
Why cant you people understand, they are not playing around this is their job. They test what happens when you comes to a situation when the traction is lost, i would not buy a car that didn't run trough thease tests. Imagine how a car not tested in thease ways would drive on snow and ice.
(exuse my english, i come from sweden where they filmed this video)
you are right :)
Don’t need a bmw for this test…lol
@Dirtlooter the x6 looks more luxurious and welcoming.. then the x5 the x5 looks like a really nice car for a soccer mom.. haah.. the x6 has more curves.. and it looks coupish...
Oh yeah? which car would make it then?
x6
@plxplox94 very true, that show has zero credibility, its just fun to watch.
where can i buy those roof- lights?
I like X5 more :)
awesome!
@Eliasmalak And based to you'r list i think you just took the oppinions of how other people think...Even the Old Range Rover's are better than Pajeros....And my oppinions are based to my own experience's. The patrol i currently have, ive had it for 11 years and it never have left me in the side of the road nor never to the forest either ;)
Because the X6 he was driving had summer performance tires.
X5 M BMW ///M Power
I'd love to work there
just wondering when are they going to test the bmw with the tires you get when you drive it off the lot.. clearly these are not the same tires
look at q7 on this test or lexus or acura... the best is x6 ...as we say about top gear?:| kenijkfr has right...
at 0:33 he was trying to go up but he couldnt !
somebody gets to have a lot of fun lol
требую льда под три колеса и повтора!
require ice under three wheels and repeat!
@FantastyckplastycK He was faking it. He used the E brake, clearly.
not yet..
hmmm let me see I was talking about x5 :D I wouldn't ever get x6. x5 or m6 thats it. X5 was always the best in bmw.
@eskon12345 one of the best... not :THE: best i just saw 2 x5 with snow tyres stuck while a pajero came and was able to pull em out of their situation... ;)
Quattro and xdrive
@theblackcrowe2003. LOL, my 1989 Saab 900i hatch and 89' Volvo 240 Gl Wagon will do that too... !
X5 !!!!!
fair test?
Best Snow Cars :
Mitsubishi Pajero/Montero (and the sport one)
Toyota Tacoma
Chevrolet Avalanche
Jeep Wrangler
Toyota FJ Cruiser
Jeep Grand Chrokee
Range Rover (Old One)
or just buy an
M1 Abrams :P
I don't want their cars, but I want to have their job.
X5 or X6 ?
@mudpluga happens what it will happen to any other car
me shoked :)
This is an impressive test for traction control, and differential locks (Electronic center coupling in the BMW's case) but, its not that impressive anymore. pretty sure A kia could do this now. Leave a bmw on the tar.
BMW - X6
fail test because you dont have snow/ice on both sides of the car so it'll grip and compensate in the side thats clear of snow/ice...
hahaha bmw x6 :)
rear seat conversion kit 5 passenger!
It's cool
bmwx6.eu
"ice climbing" why only left part was cover by ice cos they both crap off road
Well, I disagree with you gentleman, I would rather have them go even further to see what comes out of it. Although its just matter of tastes...
I wouldn't drive it anywhere off a dry smooth pavement...
You have ZAZ, you-CHMO.
oh so an x6 can make it up a hill even if two of its tires are on ice? what if i told you that a subaru can make it up a hill with all four of its tires on ice...
what if i told you proper tires are just as important as the car they are on
FilmSupplies well i dont know about this one but the subie i saw had factory tires
FilmSupplies but the subaru and the x6 have big difference in their weight
... and santa claus comes every year !
a subaru can climb that with all 4 tires on ice only with special studded tires
Haters gonna hate...
People stupid this is not the original tire.. The original one is wide this is for Nissan ffs
x6 vedro,x5 53 body forever
@maximusfuscus wrong! because clarckson hates that car and wanted to portray it as a piece of shit, its very very simple..
bmw x5 is much better car than x6 ..... also x5 needs less services than x6...
+Aso Koy The reality is that the x5 require much more repairs than x6
+Bill KIM explain bro??? or let me explain for u...x6 is much havyer so that will always make a problem for the structure of the body or under the car or the gear/ engine problems specialty the type of engine 3.0/ 3.5/ 4.0d.... the car needs a steong engine like 5.0 for example... and 5.0 engine also needs more service and more petrol than the others☺
+Aso Koy do you have X6..?
my dad got a X6 30d and in 6 years he never changed anything fancy,just
the oil and the brake pads(i dont't know if i spelled them right) so
yeah... no more service than a X5
Same thing to me..! my dad have X6 3.5i with 100000 on the clock without a single problem..
My question exactly . . . I am a big fan of TOP GEAR but that show and what he did was pointless .
kkk thanks bro but
it's nothing like acura no matter what ^_^
this just shows to tires what about 4 tires? on ice
have you ever hear that you cant climb a complete icy hill (real ice not snow) without spiked tyres? - sure not.
Here you should see (ok ..everybody except you) that you need an intelligent 4 wheel drive able to notice which wheel got grip and which not.
Asae2 My intelligent 4 wheel drive is called locking diff... lol
my rollerblades cud do this
my dad has 2018 bmw x6 sı
Congratulations.
ma che test è ?????
una ruota è sull asfalto senza ghiaccio x forza si muove .....
x6
This all 4 wheel drive car can do..
@theblackcrowe2003 - you wanna a medal or a chest to put it on? Why mock? What is your point? That you want one but cant afford one?
i wish i was a tester
@muki420 euh.... these bmw's will be much, MUCH faster then your VW...
why the fuck couldn't jeremy clarkson drive up the grassy hill in x6?!
