Mahindra Roxor on flat iron Mesa trail in Moab Utah. Wet cold rocks made the ledge at the end particularly difficult but the little diesel powered it’s way right up.
I have seen people doing mild off-roading in India with the Thar (Roxor's Indian cousin) , but have never seen this kind of extreme off-roading, shows how capable this thing is in the hands of an expert.
@@anandgosai3294 yes I wouldn't look back I love riding around in it it was worth the money harder to get now they got cut off by the law suit for looking like a jeep but I think it's becouse they were beating out jeeps in off road comps jeep got a little scared if your looking to get one you won't be dissapointef
@@rupammedhi9943 I have seen 105 hp in the Thar. In the US one owner tuned his to 68 hp and 150ftlbs of torque. Another to 117hp and 250ftlbs.Still another to 200hp and 400 ftlbs of torque. To get there he changed the turbo and waste gate . Now running 27 lbs of boost pressure. Added intercooler to bring aircharge temperature down below 100 degrees. Installed higher volume fuel pump and reset fuel regulator for more pressure. He said he will leave it like that to see if the engine could live at that output.
Hey Max... You and your wife made it look way too easy..... Great video. Could you please make a video on the modifications you made on the Roxor? Many thanks. Looking forward for more amazing content. Stay safe.
Actually you can get close. Stick to the entry level wrangler sport or sport Willis models and stay with the manual transmission. That will run you $35,000 to $40,000. Don’t add any options. You don’t need a fully kitted out Rubicon at $50,000 to $65,000 to go do this stuff.
There is nothing like a Diesel for low down power, I like how it just keeps walking along, My Mitsubishi does the same. Great Video. I'd love to have one of these.
No, Roxor blatantly was trying to pass for a Jeep in the north american market. That Roxor is heavily and expensively modified, it has nothing to do with competing against modern jeeps.
@@teop7887 The India company holds the patent for the cj5, not just one company made the old WWII jeeps they were made in many places. Jeep is just an overpriced POS really.
The steep was nicely sculpted by nature, back two wheels had a step rock and so were the front wheels wrangling a stepped up rock ...at same distance as that of jeeps front and back wheel...and it was tackled by the expert adventurer who knew his machine and the terrain ...given the torque he nailed it gently with exceptional skill.
Many copies of early Jeeps were sold off to other companies around the world. In France a copy of the WW2 Jeep was made by Hotchkiss and used up until the 80's....US Service men who served in Germany will tell you so.....also those who served in Japan etc will tell you about the Mitsubishi copy made under licence in Japan, this one was a copy of the CJ3 with gasoline and later Diesel engines and modifications to suit the Japanese Defence Force. There was a also a South Korean copy which was sold in the UK and Europe with a diesel engine as a civilian model in the 80's called the Asia Rocsta.....in addition to the Korean Copy of the Jeep that their forces used.....Kia also produced a copy of the Vietnam ERA military Jeep gladiator M715 with a diesel engine and you know what?? it was 100% more reliable than the Jeep built version, it didn't break axles or gearboxes and could be overloaded.....If only Americans travelled more and learned about 4x4s all over the world you would be happier Jeepers. I drive a Wrangler CRD Sport and my wife Drives a Rubicon CRD unlimited, we also have a U1300L and a Pinzgauer 710K (with an OM602 diesel engine).
I run factory unmodified Toyota e locker diffs and non sticky tires. Unfortunately maxxis does not make a sticky compound 35 but the roxor weighing 4600 lbs does make it stick to the ground pretty good.
Amazing..one third of the price of a Jeep...diesel engine....however, can't imagine pushing my engine that hard to get over a rock....quite the little vehicles though....well equipped for 18 grand...not 40 is it, and that is going to take market share.....competition is good.
With all due respect, you're delusional. First of all, the Roxor in the video is HEAVILY modified, therefore not reflective of a stock Roxor's capabilities. Secondly, the Roxor is a side by side, not a street vehicle, and requires additional options to make it minimally street legal... A clean, used CJ costs less than a Roxor, it's a real Jeep, and it's already street legal. People who claim these are better than modern jeeps may just as well claim that flat-earth theory is more plausible than the Earth being round. ed.: ask the driver in the video the total price of wheels, tires, lift, axels, gearing and transmission mods, custom bumpers, accessories, and all the additional equipment shown... PLUS labor costs. ...still a fraction of a modern Jeep? lol
