Automakers today do a better job supporting their off-road enthusiasts than ever before. The popularity of crossovers and SUVs has put more people into high-riding vehicles who are curious about driving on some dirt, but you don’t need a shiny new SUV to get the job done.
A new video pits a newer Land Rover Discovery against an older Volkswagen Touareg to see which is the better off-road performer. However, both are tuned, with the owners adding an assortment of performance and engine upgrades, so this isn’t your typical fight of new metal. The Volkswagen looks poised to survive the apocalypse with its snorkel and black bed-liner paint, while the Land Rover is ready for some relaxation with its rooftop tent and interior kitchen.
