.............................................................
It’s time for an almighty off-roader showdown!
We’ve got three of the best 4x4s in the business going head-to-head over a series of challenges to find the best off-roader available to buy today!
First up we’ve got Mat in the Land Rover Defender, with a 2-litre diesel engine which produces 240hp. Alongside him, we’ve got the Mercedes G350, which is powered by a 2.9-litre 6 cylinder diesel to produce 286hp. Then finally we have the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, which has a 2-litre turbocharged petrol with 272hp.
So the Defender may be down on power - but power isn’t everything when you go off-road! So will the tech that’s packed into the new Defender give it the advantage? You’ll have to keep watching to find out!

Hi Mat here. Please let me know if you'd like to see more of these battles rather than just normal reviews. Thanks!
Errr no thanks - they take ages to film 😉
sure
urus vs x6 vs cayenne
More battles mat🙏🙏🙏🙏
Hi, Mat Watson
The fact that the countdown was the sound of the girl and there was a man there disturbed me
Hahaha well spotted
i feel offended now!
Stop assuming people genders.
Hahaha just noticed
They did it some times now
4:59 i love how they still use the drag race lady’s voice
Yh well noticed 🤣
Isn't the real voice?? sounds so synchronized 🤣
@@AMV12S obviously theres a man standing there lol
Yea
@@Soulkollextor 6:22 have you sure? 🤣
from inside the car still sounding like a woman
LR defender played so smooth all the time ..
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!
It's a good thing it ain't impressive on the vehicles part to floor it up a hill lol
"I was really worried about damaging it cause it's just so expensive"
*Proceeds to smash the steering wheel while laughing*
😂😂😂
Hitting the steering wheel will cause little to no damage to it. Hardly the same
@@iBlogGadget To test your theory, I went and hit my steering wheel with a sledgehammer. It did do extensive damage. Looks like your wrong, budro.
Agreed.....
Matt aint gonna do any damage with that baby arms lol
When I heard in reverse, I thought you were gonna reverse up the hill, would have been epic
Ikr😂😂
Same 😂
I tought to😂

I honestly thought the same, I was also quite disappointed when I saw the “going down the hill.”
Absolutely I’ll go all the way with the defender the overall driving experience is something else😍
Very much

Yah me too.
Honestly the new Land Rover defender is in my opinion one of the best suvs in the world and easily my favourite car

I’m not gonna lie the only bad features of them is the really pricey parts and the amount of times they break down
That’s why people call them shit

Brilliant

The defender is basically a supercomputer on wheels.
It's like I'd a 4runner got rid of any mechanical features it had to help it off-road, and replaced it with grange technology that only works on low difficulty terrain, and won't help you in actually offroading
@@argon7479so basically defender is king of off-road
@@jyotirmayulemale9870 it's not. Mechanical systems will always be better than electronic. A solid axile will always beat any kind of torque management system.
@@argon7479 then why all youtubers say land rover is king when it comes to off roading
@@jyotirmayulemale9870 because most RUclipsrs aren't actually doing offroading. Most "offroading" reviews is taking vehicles on dirt roads with some dips and turns. Solid axiles are by far the most important thing on an offroading vehicle. There's a reason why people are still rock crawling Jeeps from the 70's. The land rover is a very comfortable car that functions well in moderate off road conditions.
Defender is completely a beast on off roading ........
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.
@@nemesisgaming9479 and that 54k Land Rover is not even the top spec offroad one while the Wrangler is the top line

These tests courtesy of Mat are great fun to watch for people like me living in a nowadays depressing and very expensive Lebanon now short of nearly all utilities and basic services. My being a mighty happy previous owner of a Land Rover V8 Defender 110, obviously my heart leaned over in favour of the new Defender, but all said and done, all three 4WD cars are great, each having its own affinities and strengths as well. For me all three cars are winners in their own respective rights.
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

I wouldn't say that the review was very analytical as it wasn't testing off roading ability it was testing what they thought was appropriate 🤣 if they had the same tires on all of them and they actually went 4wdn. It may be a competition
@@baseplate8428 g wagon had the most power so obviously it will win in timed tests. these tests are terrible measures of actual offroading capabilities
@@baseplate8428 well first race was won by defender but g wagon 6 cylinder but defender 4 cylinder engine compare price and engine

G wagon is just an a hype created by benz paying all journalist defender came 2 because matt is from British if he gave to defender comments are going to be caius so he played it on safe side.90% RUclips vedios are pre planned
It's a clear win for Defender for me...cause it is the proper go anywhere vehicle of the three.At least the last hurdle the way it crossed no confusion at all.
Jeep can
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.

Was gonna say the same thing
Land Rover won many of those challenges
I couldn't take anything seriously after we were supposed to believe the Jeep didn't comfortably win the wheel articulation part around 13:00. Last challenge Defender is all over the place, Jeep wheels never leave the ground yet Defender wins becoz reasons. Oh and Merc wins everything even though it couldn't complete all the challenges and the other two could (strange way to win for an off road battle). New Defender looks surprisingly good but I'd rather see an honest comparison.
@@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.
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…
You really helped me on choosing the right off road car
These 4x4 “Tests “ are very amusing 😁
Disclaimer: Graham was fired from Land Rover just last month.
No it’s a joke because he gave the g wagon a better score than the defender despite the fact it is unquestionably the better off-roader.

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
Definitely more of these please Mat
3 vehicles, 3 different drivers and different tires? This test was entertaining but flawed 🤷♂️
Agreed
And three different road-paths actually.
Why is Graham’s voice a females when doing the countdown 😂
yaaa, 😂
Female voice is used in all matt's carwow car races. I wonder why it sounds unique now🤔
In a Middle of a Sex Change Perhaps 🤔 😆.
Lol
There is about 72 genders, so don't be bothered in such detail.
I would have liked to see a rock crawling competition between the three cars. Jeep and the G-Wagon with their solid axles would probably have an advantage over the Land Rover with its 4-wheel independent suspension.
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!!

Quite clearly the Merc was disqualified how was it the best when it couldn’t even go down the slope the DEFENDER was and is the best hands down even on paper beats all its competitors. I have one myself a Defender X P400 Retail Price 102K maybe next time you should keep specs similar regarding power like a Defender D300 or P400 up against a Merc G350d
The best car challenge cuz it really combined 2 of my favourite cars that i've been confused between it's the Jeep and the Mercedes. It's even than top Gear and with your british accent sir i had to admit that i had a blast watching 22:15 of charisma and power
Thank u sooo much
It's nice to have something that can go anywhere with ease, but there's no thrill in that! Part of the enjoyment of off-roading is the adrenaline of "am I gonna make it through this obstacle", and the stories that come from failure or success. There's also the 'skill' vs 'computer' part of the enjoyment too.
The most unscientific test ever.
That's just a description of the main goal of CarWow...
I'd say....this was a joke. I have no preference out of any of them but the tests are not equal...drag race each line is different, through the forest turning is just down to whoever gung-ho's in the most, the hill climb was just momentum and not a test, and everything picked by Graham is just bias.
@@djsomeguy I can't help but find it hilarious when people come to a RUclips channel like CarWow (or Autotrader, Fifth Gear, Top Gear, etc) and find it somehow surprising and/or disappointing when the videos are nonsense...of course they are, it's kind of the point.
@@ApothecaryTerry I find it more disappointing when they clearly screw with the tests to please a manufacturer.
I'm ok with entertainment type car content, but then don't score the vehicles and declare a winner. If you want to score something, score the presenters (like top gear did as to who won the challenges).
@@djsomeguy I don't think they are consciously trying to bias the tests, perhaps a little fear of upsetting someone who gave them a car but you can see for example that Matt generally pushes a little harder than the others no matter what car he's in so I think the bias is in the relative competitiveness of the drivers rather than towards the cars.
I totally agree that the way they score it does suggest it's an accurate representation of the cars which obviously isn't true so something like you said would be a better approach.
Feels like Graham just got a job in Mercedes Benz
i'm telling you he is earning a dime with Mercedes Benz. he is more in favor of MB.
lol...congratulations buddy
He says jeep tire was off the ground thr most 😄😄
Defender : I have technology, and it makes me better
Mat : I think that's cheating
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.
This is such a brutal competition 😅 so poorly judged

@@Zadster I've only ever heard that for there are old bikers and bold bikers but there are no old bold bikers
I believe that a test of the vehicles going up road in a rocky terrain would be necessary to test the shoes resistance.
After having only driven a jeep for a few days I have so many questions. Do they not sell the diesel wrangler in the uk? Why were the tires not aired down(my have missed that part but thought it was common for offroading)? Why didnt they use hill ascent or hill descent control while in 4 low? And for the circuit race the jeep should have been in 4auto (if they had 4auto back then).
Please put real off-road drivers in those cars for real results
"Oh I judge the the Jeep last on this off-road obstacle because its tires are too big, aggressive and off road able" lol
They should all be using the same tyres. That is a significant factor.
Except all Jeep drivers think big fat tires are somehow superior for off- road use and not just for mall lot pimping. Remember back when Wranglers and Willies had skinny tires?
The wrangler looks great flying over the giant hump!
A win for a G, just would not do the only serious off-roading challenge 😅
They pussied out, I’ve seen the G class exhibit it could have prolly done it
Stupid show
It's not their car so they just didn't wanted to risk damaging the shiny stuff..
@@ImGaTor Exactly
G is the best off-reader out there. There are other videos demonstrating that.
I feel like the defender is the king when it comes to technology
Yep I think the samee
Too bad the electronics are crap
That's why I love wheeling with my old Jeep. Manual transmission, 4 leaf springs, quick disconnect, and zero worries that a system will fail.
My friend have a defender
I have a range and my another friend has a Land cruiser
The defender is the best offroader and land cruiser is the worst
Also my range and defender is pretty rellibile

It does go off road actually.
you might want to check what a few well established armies in the world are using.. lol
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
Old g vagon iz god offroader
ruclips.net/video/mGgCeT_C9pc/видео.html Well, we off road a lot in TAIWAN.
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👍
G wagon couldnt do the extreme offroading, but it won the battle 🤣🤣
It should be disqualified for not being capable as stock & standard.
Absolutely incredible
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.

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.
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.
yes that is why land rover popular for!
Agreed. This was worse that footy officiating. Landrover won this contest by a hair and deservedly so.
These tests felt like it didn't do justice for the jeep.
Really appreciate it 😊😊😊
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
@@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.
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.
The deffender is like the best do it all offroad car, performs superb on the road as well unlike the jeep
If you wanted a perfect score for each of the cars the best thing to do is have the same person drive each car for each challenge it’s just the best way in my opinion
So, the best one off road is the one that couldn't do everything? Not exactly a winning recommendation.
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 can actually do everything. See SUV battle channel on RUclips
What a joke of a car. 😂 You can't even call it an off roader when it couldn't do the only proper difficult part of the course.
It's like calling someone a pilot when they can't land the aircraft, just because they can fly it for most of the flight. 😂
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.
My favorite car out of all three of them has to be the g wagen. It's such an iconic car!
And so is the defender?? The defender is a better vehicle overall including off roading
Used to like it but the g350 just looks like a shabby job at the g63. I think mercedes could have worked on it a but more for that price
@@jackwilliam446 I agree with you there. The defender is a better car overall especially in offroading.
Me too...its beauty beast❤️
@@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
When you do a comparison of test a group of vehicles , especially off road , having the same make/type of tires evens out the playing field
seriously enjoyable video .,.,.,,.,.wish you do it again with a jeep grand chrokee and some other fancy once ....
Mat: "I don't want to damage this expensive G-class"
Also Mat: **proceeds to beat the steering wheel**
😂😂😂
Jeep does well and you still have money left in the bank. I think that is a victory.
The Jeep could've done this entire "off-road" challenge in two wheel drive with the rear diff lock.
😆😆😆😆😆
proper performance testing
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 --and the Rover has tipping problems that the Jeep doesn’t.
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
@@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.
4:58 loved that Graham counted with the classic female voice 😂😂😂
I love your drag race videos Matt. For Carwow. From Hridhaan.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Personally I'd go with the Jeep, it's main purpose is offroading. The G-Wagon is also very good but it's a car that i would not take offroading like that, if one thing goes wrong I don't even want to know how much the repair bill is going to cost. The defender is also an AMAZING offroading vehicle but it's not my type even though it is a badass vehicle. This is my opinion
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!
True.
G wagon only beats them on a highway never in off roading
@@mushemezakeneth7103 only noobs say that
Yeah same here
Did you notice G was the only one with on road tires? Do you really think G can't handle last test? G is the only one that have made 50 years ago.
@@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 defender was supposed to win the first challenge. Mat just hesitated at the end🙃🙃🙃 you should have done that again
I think you need to change drivers and positions on the hill to see who truly wins. It would take longer, but be more accurate.
Correction
Defender : 12
AMG : 12
Jeep : 11
( Mat said it was "his" mistake, not defender's incapability )
