Well the unimog does beat the H1 in every technical aspect. You can't beat the mog's torque tube suspension + coilovers. The hummer loose all its axle articulation because of its portal axles, but the torque tubes on the mog allow it to keep its axle articulation, despite also having portal axles. Also, the mog's chassis was designed to flex, further increasing axle articulation. The mog is really one hell of a vehicle.

Unimogs are just tractors with equal sized wheels. And depending on the transmission you can have a dozen or more gears. Pop it in the low granny gear and it will happily walk itself up the mountain. I don't think the H1 was primarily designed for this type of terrain. If the Army needed a vehicle that primarily needed to walk up the side of a mountain, they would have designed it that way. H1 & Unimogs are both extremely fun vehicles to own, and are both very capable. I just don't think these type of comparisons really show the strength of both vehicles. If it was a race across the desert, the H1 would win hands down.

I have been all over the Western US and have always been able to go wherever I wanted, on or off road. They are reasonable comfortable on the highway and just awesome off road. I have done trails all over the Rockies and the Rubicon in California. Nothing can touch a Hummer on a side hill because of its low CG or on soft sand due to the CTIS. I have travelled with Unimog friends and they are great for off road, but dangerous on sidehills. They really can't be driven on the highway for any length time - too slow and noisy.

With gears and portal boxes at each wheel that give it the unique abilities it has while off-roading. You know...things like being able to climb vertical ledges. And no I'm not suggesting the Unimog can't do these things. We know it can. And does them quite well. I'm just noting that they are completely different vehicles.

The other is an awesome compromise between a car, a truck and a gun platform made from parts that are easily obtainable if anything should break. Yes, they are both awesome off road vehicles. Yes, they both have 4 wheels and an engine. But that is pretty much where the similarities end.

Germany and Switzerland haven't got those, they've got mountains instead and then you really want either a Mog or a Pinzgauer. The Pinzgauer is about as fast as a Humvee with 100 (6X6) or 110 (4x4) vs 113km/h) but has a 2.5 ton payload to the Humvees 1.1t. The Moggy is slower at 93km/h but it can carry 7.5ton!

If you want to see a real Offroad challenge between a unimog vs. hummer I would be glad to put up my unimog against anyone hummer in any Ca/Nevada Offroad trail. Now that would be fun, who’s up for the challenge? I’ll even bring the film crew. 👍🏼

First off a lot of these "video offroaders" have never driven either. I am quite familiar with the HMMWV (22 yrs Army mechanic retired). Second, the HMMWV was designed as a MILITARY VEHICLE to operate in a TACTICALl environment. It wasn't designed to be the ultimate off-roader. It makes no sense to have a vehicle that can scale cliffs if non of your follow on vehicles (support) can get there. It was built to contract specs which include width, height, load capacity, ground clearance, gradient traverse, etc. That said it does quite well off road. I have had the privilege of driving a few Unimogs (including the Army's SEE and FLU version). The 'Mog is one step a way from a tractor, and very well versed off road. By the way, the Army SEE sucks as a excavator. The FLU sucks as a forklift too. I love both of these vehicles, but I'd take a Unimog for off-road play. But If I'm back in a warzone the HMMWV (or a new JLTV) would be a healthier choice.

Is this really a fair comparison? I like both..but the Hum vee is a large Suv type vehicle, while the Mog is a proper truck. For me, it would take an awful lot to persuade me to have the H1 - Unimog every time - if only for its world wide reputation.
@scottwilkins7 жыл бұрын
Um, where did you learn about vehicles? The Hummer is built on a full truck like frame and even comes in a truck format. Just because this one had a full shell doesn't make it an "SUV" by American modern consumer ideals. Both vehicles are highly capable. And, I doubt you'd even know how to operate either one...
@Pilot5457 жыл бұрын
From the looks of many of the comments, people are confusing the latest Hummers (which are just Tahoe/Suburban copies) with the original H1 (which the military still uses). The H1 is an PHENOMENAL off-roader. THAT'S what it was designed to do for the US military. I have personally driven one at full throttle across the desert southwest in a Baja California race kind of way and it handled EVERY jump and every dive without any fuss. Although, I did lose the 2 water cans on the back...which I quickly replaced with someone else's before anyone noticed :)
@NewRoad7 жыл бұрын
Agree - lots of confusion..... US military did not use Hummer H1 - they use Humvee. Hummer H1 was the first in line of Hummers and based on Humvee built by AM General. Hummer H2 is the Hummer based on GM truck rather than AM General Humvee . It was built in next door plant where Humvee and Hummer H1 were built by AM General but owned by GM. Hummer H3 is Hummer based on Canyon/Colorado platform. It is Hummer evolution (version 3) and was tailored for wider consumer base. In my opinion - it is more important to look at specific capabilities rather than what it is based on, on what make/model it is.

This shit is absolutely LAUGHABLE. Hummers at best, are the tabloid stories of boy-town. Unimogs are a true legacy of manly accomplishment. A 1950 Mog laughs at today's Hollywierd vehicle designs. Mogs are a fine primary insight as to how as a species, should be, and have been, striving for the best.

Unimog is underpowered, that is the simple cause. Although they are very capable for offroad, their primary intention for use is not this, hence the power train is not made for it. Get an unimog and give it correct power output for such use for it's size and then see results. Hummer on the other hand has a large enough engine, more in fact, hence it manages to get some obstacles . The ratio is completely different between power and size for these 2
