SLIP TEST - Skoda Kodiaq 2.0 TDI 4x4 vs Ford Edge 3.5 V6 AWD -

[@3domas]

Again, very impressive. Skoda seems to have its software tuned perfectly. Ford could have done better though. I can't see why they consider EDL and ESP (or whatever they call it) as a single system so they just kill them both. I hardly imagine the conditions where EDL would not be needed.

[@meeder78]

VAG has the software dialed in very good so it seems with this Skoda. Very little drama. With the Ford it looks like when the traction control is off they also disable the virtual differential locking (braking the spinning wheel).

[@haroldbeauchamp3770]

Skoda definitely has the traction control software dialed in very effectively. However, too much system intervention when the traction control is off. Ford is very impressive too, I love that when the traction control is turned off, it is completely off. Very helpful for sand and mud. Ford's traction control is very impressive too with quick response to slipping wheel.

Kodiaq, power of the biggest Bear.

Skoda super auto

[@howardp6682]

Skoda = no fuss.

[@rado78231]

Which engine is in the Kodiaq? 150/190 bhp? Or the vRS? And is this the manual or the 7dsg?

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

190 DSG.

[@rado78231]

@@4x4.tests.on.rollers Do you think there would be a difference between the 150, 190, and the vRS?

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

@@rado78231 For this test - probably not. For handling - it is possible that vRS may have some more aggressive haldex tuning.

[@nikolayrayanov2895]

@@rado78231 the new petrol VRS has more torque, might have a little bit different tuning, but the results should be similar.

w kodiqu (2017 ) po włączeniu trybu offroad automatycznie wyłącza się kontrola trakcji

Czy wersja 2017 ma także tryb Snow?

[@ganakil]

Does the 4WD perform better on 2.0 Diesel 210hp Edge models? Is the only roller test on Edge I've found on youtube but is based on 3.5 V6. The Restyle perform better and pass all the tests.

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

I have no idea if diesels perform better. What version passes all tests, where did you see that?

[@ianhadfield65]

No it shits itself at the first sign of a slippery road and shuts the full system down leaving you in 2wd

[@CL4SSiCS]

​@@ianhadfield65my dad has a ford edge (240 hp diesel) and its good in the snow here in the uk,even with summer tyres its good and gets up a steep hill leading up to our street where lots of other cars gets stuck, we were surprised the car made it up the hill as it just slid down the hill

[@badluckdaniel]

whats the point of snow mode in the skoda…

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

Probably different dynamic behaviour. And more torque going to the rear at start.

[@theblitz1687]

Very good but why does it take so long for it to pass 1 back wheel traction test? I know almost all awd are like this but why cant it use the power distribution/braking it uses to pass the obstacle 2 seconds after failing to move instead of 10 seconds? Is it a limitation in software or hardware?

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

If rear axle is powered by the clutch-pack then it is more difficult for the software - it must power the wheels and brake them at the same time.

[@funkypotamus]

Also the front wheels can get 100% of the available torque but the rear wheel can only get 50% max I think.

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

@@funkypotamus Max static torque split is 50/50 but max dynamic torque split is from ~100/0 to 0/100.

[@sagittarius-tk4hj]

if someone thinks about buying an SUV from Audi like Q5 or VW like Touareg or BMW X5, must have to drive this Skoda once. The car is big inside, has great engines and a great drive that works well on asphalt, road and snow.

[@steelbuddy4595]

Is the haldex system in the Kodiaq the same like in a Superb just with without the multiple modes? I am asking because i have a Skoda Superb with the 272 hp gasoline engine and 4x4. Would be really interesting for me to know Can you also tell me if the Haldex System knows if i got a trailer hooked on my car?

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

I have no information if tuning is the same. When it comes to trailer - systems knows it for sure on the basis of engine torque, rpm and its relation to speed.

[@nikolayrayanov2895]

Same Haldex, tuning might be different between Superb and Kodiaq, because of the different size and weight, but the results should be very similar.

[@manous80]

It depends.......In the Kodiaq it's the last haldex generation......

How many times did you have to replace the PTU on the Ford Edge while filming? 😄 (For anyone that doesn't know, Ford Edge has really poorly designed PTU - prone to overheating and failure.)

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

What is the problem, why is PTU overheating? That's just simple gearing.

[@nicholassousa2932]

Because it holds literally 8 ounces of gear oil and is sandwiched (on the v6) between engine transmission and catalytic converter.. ou and on top of the y pipe from the front cat… 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@Ce0ammer]

For all we know the Ford is still stuck, much like Henry Fords antisemitism.
