So the Toyota ditches the V8 for a turbo six and then proceeds to get way worse gas mileage than a V8. 🤯

Didn’t expect the Toyota to win anything but I was surprised. The Toyota shows the benefit of the hybrid system, while the Defender has to drop gears and spool the turbo, the Toyota can use its electric power to cover up those gaps giving it constant power from very low RPM’s

I would take the Yukon on looks alone! The Denali Ultimate trim looks awesome.

So yeah as I quoted earlier great power and great responsibilities. By increasing the power the reliability of brand such as toyota has declined since 2 years.
