Based on the grade of the trip, ground clearance and track steepness, All Wheel Drives are minimum type of vehicle recommended for the trip. However it does not provide for the skill level of the driver, if you are at all unsure, and then please discuss your adventure with us before heading off.As a guide, this is how we classify the difference between the two types of vehicles:
All Wheel Drive
All Wheel Drive vehicles are not suitable for most 4WD tracks. However a vehicle with reasonable ground clearance (more than that of a standard two-wheel drive sedan) and the ability for engine torque/power to be shared by the front and back axles can travel only on the easy graded tracks in this guide.
Four-Wheel Drive
A vehicle with very good ground clearance, ability to manually/automatically lock the front and rear axles together.
