Truck 4x4 Battle: UNIMOG vs IVECO vs HINO vs ISUZU

If you like massive trucks check out this decked out MOG in Perth we saw last year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e45oG1TuelE

A mog is a completely different class of vehicle. There was never a contest

The mog has had about 70 years of development in armies around the world,not to be underestimated.

Hands down the mog. Used it for many years during my Army days and couldnt wish for a more capable truck to go anywhere, crossed a flooded river once and the water was getting close to the bonnet lid. Amazing piece of kit

The unimog has been designed for this purpose. The other three are modified by both the manufacturer and the owners, to make them more capable. The tyre choice is one of the most telling features. Diameter and width. The mog tall and narrow ( comparatively to the others).

The Mog is in its own league. Always wanted one, but I am quite impressed with the other 3. They are all very capable - one just needs to know their limitations vs strengths.

Great Video! I remember a comercial Video of the German Mercedes Truck Company ( Part of Mercedes Benz) They showed all the Big Trucks Like Zetros 4x4, 6x6 and an 8x8 Truck kliming hills and going off road. Some of the cameras where Recording from far up the hills. Later someone askes for the Mog, that was missing in the setup and the narrator sayed : well, who do you thought brought all the cameraequipment up those hills?! 😂

I was a mechanic in the Australian Army when the Unimog came into service. The "powers that be" decreed that the low pressure wide tyres (aka super singles, as shown in the video) that was an integral part of the torque tube suspension had to be ditched, and replaced with skinny "Dunlop Militaires". The same basic tyre fitted to the Internationals it replaced. Basically destroyed 80% of the off road capability in one foul swoop. They also mandated that the alternator be replaced with an in house version, 3 times the size, 4 times the weight. This meant you couldn't tilt the cab without first removing this boat anchor of an alternator.... which you couldn't get to without first tilting the cab partially. Typical of decisions made in the '80's by bureaucrats with no idea.

😅 the way they put the "Final Boss" music on when the Unimog enters the stage. The Mog is like a fantasy character that put all his points in strength 😊

Iveco daily 4x4 is my dream, incredible truck! ❤

One thing to consider with the mog 8s that even if it had the same size tyres as the other trucks it has portal axles so its not as likely to get hung up on the diffs

Iveco is fantastic for its price. A modern, safe, versatile and easy to drive 4x4 monster.

Damn! Unimog any day of the week! That thing is a beast and simply unstoppable! If the Uni-Mog could talk it would say: “Oh, you think off-road is your ally. You merely adopted the trails; I was born on it, moulded by it. I didn’t see roads until I was a fully fledged beast, by then it was nothing to me but a walk in the park! The off-road trails betray you because they belong to me!”

Mogs are absolute beast mode engaged. They've been building the best all terrain trucks and ag equipment for decades. The other trucks are great for trail use. Mogs are built for going where there are no trails.

Awesome comparison and content. It was also good to see the Unimog from my old unit absolutely killing it. Bloody good trucks in the bush.

Nice to see these 4wd trucks together being tested we need more of this

LETS GOOOOOOO THE MOOOOOG! DOMINATED the tracks, in a tug of war it'd break all the others combined

Put a 2t load on the back of that mog it would bea much more comfortable ride. Spent many years teaching people to drive them. One of my most favourite vehicles.

And that shows the Differences between Trucks who look like real Offroader and a "Truck" who is a real Offroader. ;) Nice to see how a Unimog can impress around the World. Greetings from Germany. ✌

Unimogs started as a tractor with a cab on road use was secondary, after that they got better.
