Which SUV is the best?
While car tug-of-war contests are fun, they don’t always prove anything. So look at this test with an open mind and a focus on the fun, not data. Car tug of war is a demonstration of their grip. The vehicle with the most grip and the most weight to drive those tires into the ground wins. Although horsepower is great in all kinds of situations, it is useless when a vehicle loses traction in a tug-of-war.
