Off-Roaders Explained
Functional, practical and capable of adventure and exploration, off-roaders are typically the kind of cars you go to when you aren’t in the mood to limit your imagination. Unlike in the West, off-roaders in India aren’t merely recreational vehicles - they get you places which, inevitably, throw in at least a degree of inaccessibility thanks to poor or non-existent roads. Now you tell us - isn’t this a breed of cars that deserves celebration? That’s exactly what the CarWale Off-Road Day 2023 powered by Gulf Formula SUV Engine Oil aims to do!
In this edition of our Off-Road Day, we’ve got a line-up of some of India’s most respectable off-roaders, most of whom are global icons. The Maruti Suzuki Jimny, Mahindra Thar, Toyota Hilux, MG Gloster Black Storm, Land Rover Defender 110 and Mercedes-Benz G400d are the machines we’ve gathered around this year, and each boasts a pedigree and an enviable set of capabilities, to say the least.
The Tests
Each of these incredible machines gets put through five important tests at the Off-Road Day. These tests aren’t particularly devised to examine their prowess in acrobatics but rather to experience how effortlessly they translate to driver-friendliness in all kinds of trying situations. The tests, namely Acceleration, Hill Descent, Slalom, Beaker Test and the all-out fun Timed Lap aren’t just greatly demonstrative of each of these vehicles’ aptitude but are also, needless to say, quite the treat to the eyes - minus the overt dramatics, that is.
How We Made It Happen
A trying off-road event such as the CarWale Off-Road Day translates to a lot of duress on the machines that put on a show. Even outside of an off-road situation, every kind of driving scenario ultimately leads to heavy stresses on an engine and here’s where it becomes crucial to feed your SUV’s engine with the right kind of engine oil.
With Gulf Formula SUV Engine Oil powering this year’s CarWale Off-Road Day, this was no longer an area of concern. Designed to unlock the absolute best in power and overall performance from your SUV, Gulf Formula SUV Engine Oil makes your SUV unstoppable and just gives you that added peace of mind you expect from your dream go-anywhere machine.
