At Piesangkloof, Magaliesberg, South Africa. Go pro and cell phone footage of the same obstacle. As usual the video doesn't show how steep it really is. Even the Rubicon had to have a couple of goes at it.
The system is not perfect, The main problem is that you lose momentum and that is crucial... But suzuki did a great job With this little one, can't wait to see accessories and suspension to make it fully a good contender
Only tires and mudflaps on this car? (If so, yeap it is pretty convincing for a stock setup!) May I also ask how the auto gearbox drives on the highway with these tires, much hunting 3rd/4th gear or not?
Hi, thanks for keeping up the videos on the new Jimny. I also have one and was wondering if your drive train is a bit noise and even more so when in 4 low. Also when you are using the hill descent function do you get noise from the front area of the car? Thanks for your time and please keep the videos coming.
@@vicrundle4661 sorry about your name, didn't noticed the autocorrect had done it's magic. Hope you are not offended. Anyway thanks for replying and your video is awesome. Keep them coming.
Great video, I think that it shows that the Jimny traction system is not that good at that type of terrain. Please, show how other cars do at the same climb, have you taped the ones behind or ahead?
A lot of tyre slipping and hardly any grip. I thought there was some kind of diff lock on this to give equal power to all wheels and to prevent wheelspin ? Im no expert on these systems, sorry.
Proper differential locks would give equal torque to wheels on the same axle. This system brakes a spinning wheel allowing torque to be transferred to the other wheel on the same axle. The system is far from perfect, but is still a lot better than open diffs.
