The Defender went up a much steeper hill than the G-Wagen, so that should have been accounted for and given the victory in the first test. Or just have them all on the same hill!

@@andrewr5992 yea that guy was so unfair... but I prefer the defender as it's the best on road and rlly good offroad too but I reckon jeep is better offroad
@@danbruh33 I totally agree with you. As an all rounder the new Defender looks surprisingly comfortable around town and from all the serious reviews I've seen it's mighty impressive off road too, comfortably going head to head with the 200 series 'cruiser. That's why it's annoying that someone had to make things up (you have to be smoking something to think the Defender has anywhere near the articulation of the rubicon especially with swaybars disconnected), the Defender is plenty good enough to stand on its own merits and out of the three tested was arguably the best all rounder and best value for money.
@@user-rl6px5ob3d who asked you boring NBA. Damn American sports are so boring. Baseball, your so called “football”, and NBA. In NBA tall baboons jumping around lol
For the price the Jeep punches well above it's weight. All that's missing on it is a nice aftermarket lift kit and it will still cost less than the others and likely be way more reliable over time. The jeep really is bargain
Three incredible 4x4s... But are they the best in the business? VOTE with a LIKE in the comments below with which one's your favourite, or leave a COMMENT with what you'd choose instead!
Don't know about the west, but in Russia people use them for fishing, hunting and offroading trips all the time. Ofcourse there are also poor people who want to look rich, lease them and then are afraid to take them off the tarmac but happens to all the SUV's
Both the G and the Defender lifted tires in the video on the articulation portion. Also, on the hill climb both the G and the Defender took running starts where they just pulled the Jeep up to the hill and climbed slowly. You guys need more discipline in your tests.
@Pillsbury Dough Boy yeah sure. Spend ludicrous amounts on a glorified grocery getter that's unreliable as hell and a fat box that's so expensive they didn't even wanna take it down the final obstacle
throw 15k into that jeep, upgrade the driver, and the jeep would demolish those other cars while still being cheaper. End of the day you're comparing $38k jeep to a $54k land rover and a $131k g350.

We need someone from the US driving the Jeep, don’t worry about scrapping the bottom, that’s what the skid plates are for, Jeep wins on the last obstacle hands down!!
L.A. RC tipping problems? I’ve seen my friends Rover do some crazy looking shit and it has yet to tip. He hasn’t talked to me about Reliability yet😂 my pentastar is 100% more reliable then his Rover
Jeep provides skid plates and rock rails to protect the undercarriage. So what you scrape, you’re scraping steel. I’ve never seen a rover newer than 2005 on a trail, and definitely haven’t seen a g wagon.
They decided the g wagen couldn’t handle it, thought the defender was going to flip over, but the jeep lost. Yep, that all checks out, off-road test complete
they didn't show or shot when the Jeep going up on the second to last obstacle when the Merc had its wheels up in the air, I bet the Jeep did not lift at all. This was shamefully biased. on the hill climb Jeep went up with almost no momentum vs the order two who sped up the hill.
Yip very biased towards the Jeep. No run up for climb. On rutted side for drag and clearly won the articulation test only a blind man would see different
As someone who's had a big portion of my life going off roading, i can say this wasn't a very accurate test. The Jeep wrangler is without a doubt the best Off roader out of the bunch, due to its suspension and ladder frame design. The other two have both become more focused at being city cars. The Jeep shouldn't have lost the articulation test, and judging by how dangerously high the Defender's wheels were in the air during the last test, the jeep should have won that too, and the race around the tree all depended on who was willing to drive the quickest over the rough terrain. In a real world, proper off road course in the mountains or any other inconsistent and uneven terrain, the Jeep will be by far ahead of the rest, because there articulation is very important and actually essential to not tipping or rolling your vehicle
Why would ladder frame be better? From what I have learnt in engineering, your suspension is what really matters in accessibility. If the suspension is mounted to something rigid it doesn’t matter.
@@arvidjohansson3120 Well it's less of a factor than the suspension, you're right. But it's more rugged, easier to repair and modify for extra height and clearance later along the lines. But the most important factor about the ladder frame suspension is it's ability to stay rigid and not flex under heavy articulation. I guess that just further falls in with the ruggedness factor but it's important for someone who's actually going off roading allot.
Rifky sry mate i don't know y u like jimny.a favor forget tht dream it won't happen.jimny is best in is own way i appreciate tht but we don't need for compare with legends......sry mate jus my opinion.
My '96 Discovery would have put the Defender to shame with regards to articulation. What a pleasure to watch the Jeep and G flex. I love Land Rover and would take the Defender for my primary without even a thought. It is simply the best driver. The Defender simply has better manners and is a more modern vehicle to live with. It even has decent fuel economy. It would be nice to see the Full Size Range Rover in some tests though.
Totally agree, they establishes early in the video that the Wrangler had the least ground clearance yet the final challenge they didnt want to take the G Wagon down. Graham is an idiot, no place judging Off Roading when he knows nothing about it. And dont get me started on the first 3 challenges of "Racing" which really is not a test of off roading at all.
@Ashlee Burell no it’s not. Same driver needed for every test. Timed drag race with the same driver, same driver for the slope test, same start location, etc. The merc was the only one that launched on the maneuverability test too, so it got a quicker time. The Merc also had more momentum from the start on the rocky slope test, Jeep looked like it started with the lowest speed. All the vehicles could probably use less tire pressure too, looks to be on street air pressure. All 3 vehicles need the same driver, start points/speed for certain tests, same launches.. either off idle or boosted launch, same tires and tire pressure.
Hey Mat!! That was unfair a bit.. a disqualification should give a negative 2... That makes all 3 of them at 11 points .. and since land-rover is the best among them on road, thats the clear winner!! ;) Anyways great effort and interesting video!!
G wagon is the best, the only reason it didn't do the last test was that they were afraid it would scratch the car, not because it wasn't capable of doing that
@@silimarina. LOL you don't see any variant of G wagon in Dakar Rallys or Off-road competitions do you? The Fact that you're suggesting that it's the best is hilarious man.
@@The-Celestial so just because g class is not in Dakar, that means it's not good? You are hilarious. Search why G class is the most capable off-roader in this comparison and one of the best in the world
@@silimarina. one of the best in the world? Yes, for city roads. Not for extreme off roading, but if you bring G wagon 6x6 there then it's a whole different story! then maybe I'll change my opinion for it.
It’s Funny how the vehicle that couldn’t make it to the end wins! After watching this video if I want to go off roading I’ll take the Jeep Wrangler or the defender and if I want to go grocery shopping I’ll take the G!
@@NarancicDragi Jeep has been in service since 1941 that's more than 50 years. Check your facts. By the way the G may or may not be able to handle the last test however do you really want to sit with the repair bill especially after paying close to 100k for it anyway since the G doesn't have under armor like the Wrangler
The difference being that you can throw a few thousand dollars into any Jeep and it will then crush those opponents. Have you ever seen a Merc or Range Rover do something like the Rubicon trail? Neither have I.
@@mohammadchaudhry6390 I completely agree, it’s disgracefully cheap interior as well, like the plastics. It’s supposed to be at least an £80k car, and these off road tests weren’t properly performed and pointed so I would go and say the defender would win in a proper test
That can be done, however, the tyres weren't the issue, lack of Ground clearance was, I don't think anyone would want to life a brand new 100K G Class, I could be wrong though.
It didn't do the last task but still won by 2 points. Plus no one who buys these cars will take it on any terrain like the last task. G won it fair and square because it does the minimum requirement best.
When there is a huge price gap between contenders then it is your wallet that decides the winner. Unfortunately this comparison ended up tie between those two which were near in pricing and thus you should watch it as entertainment.
Pity the 70 series LC doesn’t qualify. It’s also a bit hard to see how the only one that did not complete a test won overall, but was good to see these SUV’s doing more than most owners will ask of them.
I'd take the G350d. It's too bad they don't sell that engine in the G Wagon in the US. Straight 6 diesels are awesome and it would get significantly better fuel economy than the V8!
If you put off the middle differental, you can drive better around tight corners like in minute 12:46 till 13:00 . If you had the middle-differential in position on, you have got an circle of 18 meters or something. The Defender must have an automatic function to put it off that you can drive better around tight corners, maybe at special degrees of the steering wheel or the wheels itself. Very good videos and not so many facts. Your feeling to drive is more interesting than how many torque it have at some rpm in Position X of the gas pedal. very good job. SO Thanks
@@gc2234 it's a solid axle vehicle, for $100 you can put an inch lift and go crazy from there and it would destroy anything made for on road use in these tests
@@gc2234 nothing an inexpensive skid plate can't protect. Now, if you Defender decides to roll over... it loses points for safety and you might have a totalled car on your hands. Also the Jeep aftermarket is extensive, and a lot of products are quite reasonably priced too, so if you wanted a lift kit, its not going to cost much compared to the other two.
Until it has an accident... in which case it is known for flipping over onto its roof and killing all of the occupants. Which is why it scored a 1* NCAP safety rating. 😂
After seeing Matt cry while scraping the Jeep body armor on a very minor obstacle and then comparing it to the outrageous torture tests the American and Aussie reviewers put them through I just died laughing 😂😂😂
Yeah that was ridiculous I'm like man just follow the other tire tracks and go you don't need a spotter you're in a Rubicon with front and rear lockers and sway bar disconnects just ride the brake then go Jesus LOL They didn't really do that Rubicon Justice I drive a Land Rover Discovery 2 but I know for a fact down here in Arizona with the Rocky hill climbs we do all the rubicon's with just a size larger tires are down crawl up things with those front-rear lockers and do sway bar disconnects in those solid axles. It does things the defender can't do or at least a Defender can't do as easily. The defender doesn't have the articulation it weighs more and it is higher center of gravity. They're just choosing the Land Rover because they were both speaking with a British accent LOL what would you rather have in the forest yeah but would you rather have rock climbing and doing real manly stuff that Rubicon no question about it. That's why when they show a video of a Defender following some Jeep rubicon's around there all impressed and praising the defender while there's like 20 other Jeeps all doing the same thing easier and no one mentioned how good they're doing because it's expected but let's praise the defender for merely keeping up LOL they need to see some of those videos. Then you see the Jeeps go do other stuff when the cameras are put away and the defender says goodnight and goes back to the hotel for the evening video over
@RONALD R ROOT III lol mate not gonna lie ever the Disco 2's are good vehicles when it comes to offroading nice axle setup and not overly expensive. You can get lockers for them as well and I say this all as I die hard jeep boy 🤣
Mat: I was really worried about damaging it because it is so expensive.. literally one nanosecond later he is punching the steering like mike tyson out of enthusiasm xD
How did the G win when it literally didnt even try a real life scenario?😂 The defender did the other challenges just fine, its definitely better for offroad
Defender is such a shitbox they always were and always will be have you seen those people testing one ? They got 300 miles out of it before it broke and had to have an entire new engine
tbh, nobody would be able to enjoy offroading in a 100k Gwagon. and it won all of its most troublesome tasks coz matt was driving it and we all know he's much better than the other 2 drivers.
It could have done it, those G-Wagens are practically bomb proof underneath they have a lot of heavy duty plating. They were concerned about the idiotic side steps - loaner vehicle. If they dumped the side steps and had rock sliders, it would have easily gone through the last obstacle.
Speaking as a machinist myself and knowing metal scrapings intimately, when you're bottoming out in the center like that and stopping all you're doing is letting the weight sit and continue to build and then going just an inch or two and stopping again, also makes you let the weight sit down on it again once you start moving and the small scrape starts happening simply let it slide all the way through and you will have minimal damage to the metal. AKA it's better to have a little ding then it is to have multiple large scrapes.Just a little advice to help you with your show and budget
@@reubenrobinson2304 Due to lock down I’ve not seen it, but interestingly he had the D240 Defender before and got an offer he could refuse to upgrade! He said the D300 is significantly smother and the power is more than enough. :)
@@stownrow if you are getting a defender the only choice that you shoukd make is a 3.0 engine either diesel or oetrol, they suite the car better. The 2.0 engines are pure crap. The defender in the video didnt have the rear diff which even more disappointed cause the jeep was in its moat off road trim. They should have the defender x there.
That last obstacle was bs the jeeps tires never left the ground the land rover was ab I ut to tip over so in terms of safe the jeep did a way better job
Agreed - a skid plate to the underside could easily counter any concerns for the Jeep. But a Land Rover tipping, well there isn't much you can do. Safety compromised and a badly damaged car...

As an all rounder the new Defender looks surprisingly comfortable around town and from all the serious reviews I've seen it's mighty impressive off road too, comfortably going head to head with the 200 series 'cruiser. That's why it's annoying that someone had to make things up (you have to be smoking something to think the Defender has anywhere near the articulation of the rubicon especially with swaybars disconnected), the Defender is plenty good enough to stand on its own merits and out of the three tested was arguably the best all rounder and best value for money.

We need someone from the US driving the Jeep, don’t worry about scrapping the bottom, that’s what the skid plates are for, Jeep wins on the last obstacle hands down!!
That’s my only complaint about the wrangler it has clearance problems that Rovers don’t have

@@ethanstorm1735 based on the video, it had a tipping problem, that’s why he went soooo sloooooow.
Jeep provides skid plates and rock rails to protect the undercarriage. So what you scrape, you’re scraping steel. I’ve never seen a rover newer than 2005 on a trail, and definitely haven’t seen a g wagon.
Justice for defender at 13:50, it deserves a 3 there
Jeep does well and you still have money left in the bank. I think that is a victory.
Defender : I have technology, and it makes me better
Mat : I think that's cheating
That jeep was stolen a win it clearly beat the
G wagon and defender in articulation
They decided the g wagen couldn’t handle it, thought the defender was going to flip over, but the jeep lost. Yep, that all checks out, off-road test complete
Well i disagree merc deserved the win and in the last test merc would have walked through it
they didn't show or shot when the Jeep going up on the second to last obstacle when the Merc had its wheels up in the air, I bet the Jeep did not lift at all. This was shamefully biased. on the hill climb Jeep went up with almost no momentum vs the order two who sped up the hill.
Yip very biased towards the Jeep. No run up for climb. On rutted side for drag and clearly won the articulation test only a blind man would see different
Let's offroad with the g63 than it's an different story👍
As someone who's had a big portion of my life going off roading, i can say this wasn't a very accurate test. The Jeep wrangler is without a doubt the best Off roader out of the bunch, due to its suspension and ladder frame design. The other two have both become more focused at being city cars. The Jeep shouldn't have lost the articulation test, and judging by how dangerously high the Defender's wheels were in the air during the last test, the jeep should have won that too, and the race around the tree all depended on who was willing to drive the quickest over the rough terrain. In a real world, proper off road course in the mountains or any other inconsistent and uneven terrain, the Jeep will be by far ahead of the rest, because there articulation is very important and actually essential to not tipping or rolling your vehicle
Why would ladder frame be better? From what I have learnt in engineering, your suspension is what really matters in accessibility. If the suspension is mounted to something rigid it doesn’t matter.
@@twowheelsonly1 Or you guys are taking this test to seriously.
@@arvidjohansson3120 Well it's less of a factor than the suspension, you're right. But it's more rugged, easier to repair and modify for extra height and clearance later along the lines. But the most important factor about the ladder frame suspension is it's ability to stay rigid and not flex under heavy articulation. I guess that just further falls in with the ruggedness factor but it's important for someone who's actually going off roading allot.

My '96 Discovery would have put the Defender to shame with regards to articulation. What a pleasure to watch the Jeep and G flex.

It even has decent fuel economy. It would be nice to see the Full Size Range Rover in some tests though.
Please put real off-road drivers in those cars for real results
Graham needs to find a new job, how he scored the g wagon to win is beyond me😂
I’m happy they don’t use him anymore as a scorer
He is well off the mark on this one
He was wrong
Mat have g wagen so he have soft spot for g wagen
Totally agree, they establishes early in the video that the Wrangler had the least ground clearance yet the final challenge they didnt want to take the G Wagon down. Graham is an idiot, no place judging Off Roading when he knows nothing about it. And dont get me started on the first 3 challenges of "Racing" which really is not a test of off roading at all.
These tests also depend on how a person is driving the car not just on a car.
@Ashlee Burell no it’s not. Same driver needed for every test. Timed drag race with the same driver, same driver for the slope test, same start location, etc. The merc was the only one that launched on the maneuverability test too, so it got a quicker time. The Merc also had more momentum from the start on the rocky slope test, Jeep looked like it started with the lowest speed. All the vehicles could probably use less tire pressure too, looks to be on street air pressure. All 3 vehicles need the same driver, start points/speed for certain tests, same launches.. either off idle or boosted launch, same tires and tire pressure.
Hey Mat!! That was unfair a bit.. a disqualification should give a negative 2... That makes all 3 of them at 11 points .. and since land-rover is the best among them on road, thats the clear winner!! ;)
Anyways great effort and interesting video!!
I’d say that was mildly biased in the G wagons favor
Probably because its the best?
G wagon is the best, the only reason it didn't do the last test was that they were afraid it would scratch the car, not because it wasn't capable of doing that

G wagon only beats them on a highway never in off roading
@@mushemezakeneth7103 only noobs say that

The defender was supposed to win the first challenge. Mat just hesitated at the end🙃🙃🙃 you should have done that again
In the last challenge, Graham clearly wanted the G wagon to win…because right off the line one of the G wagon & Land Rovers tires came off the ground…
the defender got round the conner in turn, yet the other 2 had to reverse to get round. how on earth did the defender loose that one!
Bit of a stupid test tbh, as it's more about the individual drivers than the car.

Not really a "win" for the G, simply because it couldn't to the really tough off road stuff :/
Why not just change tires
That can be done, however, the tyres weren't the issue, lack of Ground clearance was, I don't think anyone would want to life a brand new 100K G Class, I could be wrong though.
It didn't do the last task but still won by 2 points. Plus no one who buys these cars will take it on any terrain like the last task. G won it fair and square because it does the minimum requirement best.
When there is a huge price gap between contenders then it is your wallet that decides the winner. Unfortunately this comparison ended up tie between those two which were near in pricing and thus you should watch it as entertainment.
sure, it couldn´t ? it´s more like they were scared to try.
Pity the 70 series LC doesn’t qualify. It’s also a bit hard to see how the only one that did not complete a test won overall, but was good to see these SUV’s doing more than most owners will ask of them.
I'd take the G350d. It's too bad they don't sell that engine in the G Wagon in the US. Straight 6 diesels are awesome and it would get significantly better fuel economy than the V8!
They don’t sell it in the U.K. either.
Are you serious? G350d has been on sale in the UK for years & years.
C’mon Matt you know we want the Jimny in this one :(
If you put off the middle differental, you can drive better around tight corners like in minute 12:46 till 13:00 . If you had the middle-differential in position on, you have got an circle of 18 meters or something. The Defender must have an automatic function to put it off that you can drive better around tight corners, maybe at special degrees of the steering wheel or the wheels itself.
Very good videos and not so many facts. Your feeling to drive is more interesting than how many torque it have at some rpm in Position X of the gas pedal.
very good job. SO Thanks
In my opinion Landover should win, because it performs best among all of them 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
You guys cheated. Jeep’s tires never left the ground on any of the courses, but you gave the defender the point for articulation. That’s BS.
The Jeep's oil sump and exhaust never left the ground either. Zero ground clearance.... That's exactly what you want when you're off roading. 😂

@@gc2234 that is what beefy skid plates that come standard on the Jeep are for.

Yeah that was ridiculous I'm like man just follow the other tire tracks and go you don't need a spotter you're in a Rubicon with front and rear lockers and sway bar disconnects just ride the brake then go Jesus LOL
They didn't really do that Rubicon Justice I drive a Land Rover Discovery 2 but I know for a fact down here in Arizona with the Rocky hill climbs we do all the rubicon's with just a size larger tires are down crawl up things with those front-rear lockers and do sway bar disconnects in those solid axles. It does things the defender can't do or at least a Defender can't do as easily. The defender doesn't have the articulation it weighs more and it is higher center of gravity. They're just choosing the Land Rover because they were both speaking with a British accent LOL what would you rather have in the forest yeah but would you rather have rock climbing and doing real manly stuff that Rubicon no question about it. That's why when they show a video of a Defender following some Jeep rubicon's around there all impressed and praising the defender while there's like 20 other Jeeps all doing the same thing easier and no one mentioned how good they're doing because it's expected but let's praise the defender for merely keeping up LOL they need to see some of those videos. Then you see the Jeeps go do other stuff when the cameras are put away and the defender says goodnight and goes back to the hotel for the evening video over

Speaking as a machinist myself and knowing metal scrapings intimately, when you're bottoming out in the center like that and stopping all you're doing is letting the weight sit and continue to build and then going just an inch or two and stopping again, also makes you let the weight sit down on it again once you start moving and the small scrape starts happening simply let it slide all the way through and you will have minimal damage to the metal. AKA it's better to have a little ding then it is to have multiple large scrapes.Just a little advice to help you with your show and budget
