Driving Experience Gifts - What is 4x4 Off-Roading?
A four-wheel drive, 4WD, 4x4 or AWD (All Wheel Drive) is a four-wheeled vehicle with a transmission systems that allows all four wheels to receive torque from the engine simultaneously and independently. Sometimes referred to as off-road vehicles or SUVs (Sport Utility Vehicles), the idea behind 4 x 4s is that powering all four wheels independently provides better control, especially on difficult off-road terrain.
4x4’s can trace their history back to 1893, when English engineer Bramah Joseph Diplock patented a four wheel drive system for a traction engine.
The term 4x4 came into use during World War 2 by the US military to describe their transport vehicles with 4 wheels and 4 power transmission – hence four x four. Off-road vehicles of course refers to the development of these vehicles for use in off-road driving experiences.
Two Jeeps recently set a world record for driving at altitude as they scaled Ojos del Salado in Chile, South America. The climb was officially the highest in history by an internal combustion vehicle with the 4x4s reaching a height of 6,646 metres (21,804 feet) above sea level.
Back in Ireland, the driving experience gifts of 4 x 4 days out on challenging off-road terrain make great gifts for any driving enthusiast or thrill seeker.
