Land Rover Defender, Mercedes G-Class and Jeep Wrangler in an off-road Battle

 Carwow's companions make some of the most outstanding acceleration races in the world, bringing together on the asphalt some of the greatest beasts in the automotive world today. However, when they have a trio of Land Rover Defender, Mercedes G-Class and Jeep Wrangler at their disposal, it's just as well to go off the road.

And boy, have they done it, because they have faced the trio in an off-road battle and with various tests, in which they have been earning points to show which is the best.

The first, how could it be otherwise, is a drag race, although not the usual quarter mile. This is a drag race up a hill, over mud and over a short distance. Still remember the Land Rover Defender Led Headlights for old version? It is very cheap and worth to upgrade your vehicle.

The second seeks to check how slow they can go down a slope, something for which Land Rover and Jeep use their descent assistants, but which in the Mercedes must be done manually. The control achieved by the first two is striking.

The third is a fast lap of a small bumpy track, the fourth is a climb up a slope with slippery terrain, the fifth is a route with lateral slopes... the video is not wasted and it is interesting to see the performance of the three participants in all the situations.
