Best pickup off-road: Top 12 dual-cab utes compared - some fail to make it!

Thanks for the great feedback everybody! I mentioned in another comment that once the Amarok launches, we'll re-run these tests with the 70 Series (wasn't available for this test), the LDV T60 Max, Mahindra Pik-Up, Amarok, regular Navara and Ranger bi-turbo.

On the award places - the Jeep was outright winner for obvious reasons. Raptor got best value on the basis that it has all of the off-road equipment you need to go off-road without modifying the vehicle - to get anywhere near this level of equipment you'd need to buy the Jeep, which already took out the main prize, or modify one of the other utes, which would void warranty.

And in the four-cylinder category, it was a very close placement between Navara and Triton. Ultimately it went to the Navara because it comes out of the factory with the added off-road gear that won't void the warranty.

On tyres - as we said in the test, we wanted to test these straight out of the factory. By fitting all terrain tyres to each vehicle, we no longer have a vehicle that is as you can buy off the dealer floor. These are very light off-road tests that any dual-cab ute and any driver should be able to do without needing all-terrain tyres.

Totally not fair comparison road tyres vs 4wd tyres for 1 longer version of Musso

Poor testing as always put the same tyres on all them and then it's a fair test but youwon't do that because there loaners from
the manufactuers and you are not allowed to modify them even changing the tyres. An advertisement disguised as a “test”. Imagine if they put an old landcruiser against all these would smoke them easily but hey they'll come out shouting thats not a UTE and that I've missed the point when it's actually them that have missed my point entirely!!!!

U guys forgot the land cruiser

Amazing video! Thanks!

I'd like to see how the old 2019 3.2 Ford Ranger Wildtrak would perform against these new utes on these tests. For some reason I still believe in it..😊

Its not a good test when you use cars with different tires

Thanks for the great work.
What else would I like - to compare the old ones with the new ones, does modern electronics really significantly help to do the same thing as with the old ones without it... I think it would be interesting for everyone.

Clearly biased towards Raptor.

Yo why don't you try all the Toyota landcruisers

Do u think Isuzu would have got up the hill if it had Navara tires ?

kinda disappointed pf the isuzu, its basically a last gen mitsubishi triton and they tend to do well othervise

EDIT: its not based on mitsubishi but on mazda, which is even weirder as the mazda did well

Way to many ads

I would like to have seen how the Mahindra stacked up.
It generally gets surprisingly good reviews.

how can you compare these cars with different tires, it is known that those cars with heavy-duty tires cope better, while others cope worse with normal tires. This whole test is not true

i thought you were Seth MacFarlane at first! hahahahha

I like the raptor

I think you should also try the 2019 model 1.5 Pestij plus AdBlue 4x4 Daçia Duster.

Nothing can frighten a triton 💪💪

mmm triton did well , I thought it did far much better than the Navara in the 4 cl category. of cause the Navara is custom off road built. I guess even with that the triton was better.

The D Max is good but the driver is not goo no good driver

Where Is Mercedes? Do test between mercedes And Mitsubishi pleas ❤

the worst pick up test , intentionally perjudicating some brands.

Thanks

TRITON KILLED IT !!! 😂
NO DOUBT THEIR FAMOUS SUPER SELECT SYSTEM IS ONE OF THE BEST EVER !! ❤

my favourite type of stuff even though i don’t know anything about cars😅

Mitsubishi Triton is best in value and best in off roading.

Clearly the Triton was as good if not better than any other vehicle there...

I didn't expect triton will manage to pass that test,I'm surprised that truck did it so easily..

Well my new BT50 hasn't had any issues with the standard tyres getting up steep hills. Maybe a little more throttle would have helped.. There is too much crappy technology in cars these days.

nice, thanks

How come no Amarok?

Really? Testing the Raptor with offroad tires and the mazda as second with road tires? Why not testing with the same tires? Otherwise this test makes no sence.

The Ssangyong Musso had HT street tires, LT you can't compare it with the MT tires on the Jeep Rubicon

Why did you test the Silverado against the Ranger Raptor? It should be against a standard F-150.

I'm buying a navara

Leave the expansive bakkie and just buy yourself a TOYOTA😂

Very stupid test

The front tires of the DMax are not working, only the rear so it naturally wont make it just like the raptor when climbing on 2-wheel drive. Isuzu are the best diesel engines and i have no doubt it can climb that test but obviously in the video the front tires during the climb were not even turning as if it was locked on a 2-wheel drive

Has the JAC ute come to Oz yet? Has CarExpert done a preview or feature on one of those? Please post a link if so.

FORD GMC RAM

Why does CarExpert hate Triton so much????

Mitsubishi smashed that...

You see the I don't understand how the gladiator is the overall winner I think it should have been the Ram now I know you are the expects however other than the 2H on the rollers it performed excellent without having the features that the other utes have e.g locking differentials 😂😊🎉❤

Best value Raptor?!?... Should have been Triton hands down

Mitsubishi and Nissan Will be making some serious off roaders in the near future.

Ranger raptor the best

American trucks did better because of longer wheenbase. Shorter trucks leave diagonal tire spin marks, and other short trucks going after get cought in them. Longer wheelbase makes sure at least one axle stays on more or less even patch of the hill surface.

Test looks rigged. You're denying some cars
sufficient acceleration. Whenever they gain momentum, you just get your foot off the pedal.
Not fair
