Why the comparison was made with the Disco 3 and not with the new model ?? All point to the fact that stability is better ..... and Disco 4 where you put it ?? Membro del Club DIEGO

in the first few mins, found this is not a true comparism for one major reason: Have you seen how wide a LC Amazon is compared to the others!
This would have an impact on the driveabilty/wheels on the ground/position on the ground. They need to compare like for like and use a FFRR rather than its baby brother!

Staged to look better. I think the D3 may be coiler. Also if you look where the front wheels are pointing (stop the vid) at the top of the rise you will see the Prado is pointing ahead and the D3 is pointing left taking a different line.

At the end of the day all they are trying to show is that their product is better than the competition. There is no way a D3 would of got stuck in either of the hill climbs with a decent driver behid the wheel. But in the same vein a good driver would know where to point the wheels, when to use the gas, when not to use the gas etc to get a car stuck.
Not worth the bandwidth. I know we are passionate about the Green Oval but to even think that any vid between manufacturers produced any car company is going to be VERY biased to their own product. Plus any magasine that does an article the reporter will have a bias towards a marque. The only true test is to get some geeks from Toyota, Mitsi etc and get them out laning with you and do real world tests 1 after the other HONI SOIT QUI MAL Y PENSE
