FIND THE RIGHT CAR

The Adventure Edition is the G-Class’ more rugged-looking version. But it will not feel out of place in the urban jungle too

Hoarding a good chunk of space next to a bunch of 4x4s with various degrees of off-road potential, the Defender pompously maintained its potent mix of new-world luxury and old-school charm.

I'm smitten by pickup trucks and their versatility. So, there's no second guessing what I chose when the Toyota Hilux made it to the line-up of the fourth edition of CarWale's annual off-road day. In fact, it was the only massive pickup amongst SUVs here. To cope with the bulk, it has a 2.8-litre turbo diesel engine producing 200bhp and 500Nm of torque. All this power is routed through a six-speed torque converter automatic to the four-wheel-drive system. The latter gets High (H4) and Low (L4) range paired with electronic 2WD/4WD control. Despite the length, it has good approach (29.22degree) and departure (26.36degree) angles and runs on stock Bridgestone tyres (265/60 R18). Let's see how it performed.

MG Gloster is not just about luxury; it is an SUV ready to conquer any terrain with confidence and style. Here, at the 2023 Carwale Off-Road Day, let us see how this SUV fared against the five others.

The off-road legend is back at the latest iteration of the CarWale Off-Road Day! This time round this Mahindra SUV will go up against 5 very capable 4x4s!
