Off-Roading Obstacle Courses

Land Rover Urban Jungle Stages a Test Drive to Celebrate Anniversary

— April 8, 2012 — Autos
The Land Rover Urban Jungle is an intense suburban obstacle course set amongst dirt hills in what would appear to be an abandoned construction site.

To commemorate the company's 25th North American anniversary, the course is open to media and special invitees that want to see the SUV in action, or try it out for themselves.

Focusing on handling and performance on difficult terrain, both present day and past models of the SUV are put to the test in a impromptu drive site in New York. The whole site also seems to be a bit post-apocalyptic, thanks to the addition of a half-buried taxi cab and other protruding objects found on site.

The Land Rover Urban Jungle gives the adventurous type looking to see if the SUV really lives up to its promises: the ability to push the vehicle to the limits and beyond.
