10 Of The 6-Wheeled Cars Which Tried To Break Through

IIRC what stopped F1 multi wheel experimentation was a rule change stipulating four wheels only.
Typical unimaginative office type morons at play here. You only need to look at F1 today to see what nearly 40 years meddling has done to the sport. It is utterly boring.
I have a rule change for them, a 1litre V16 with supercharger - NO TURBOS. Boost limited to 75psi multi stage allowed, multi everything. Remove the 4 wheel only rule too.
I want to bring back the sound of the 1.5l 2 stage supercharged BRM of the early 1950s but in a modern format. Watch the crowds come back to this sound:

I forgot about those crazy six wheel f1 cars

if it looks wrong it is wrong, this looks wrong

The renault 5 looks like a speedy wheelchair taxi.

The panther six Is a sleeper

Why they are not make rear wheel can turn like front wheel?

I travelled in many a six-wheeled Landrover and Mercedes Mogs in the Royal Australian Army in the early Nineties. Not good for your back. Thanks for the memories. You seem to mention Australia often in your videos. Have you moved here? Thank you for sharing.

FYI, the 6x6 Land Rover "perentie" was not actually shown, and are all but completely decommissioned by the Australian defence force. They are now mostly owned by civilians and you also technically need a light truck licence to drive them as their gross weight is 5.6T. They will do
100km/h but that's forcing the boundaries and prefer 80-90km/h. Mine gets around 22L of diesel to 100km too...... @visioracer, let me know if you want some footage to post up.

Didn't Hitler have a 6 wheeled staff car??

If I were to choose a 6wd truck... it will be the Hennessey Velociraptor.

None of the landrovers in your video were actually perenties. The perentie has dual linked leaf springs in the rear. All the trucks in the video were costum builds with another normal landrover axle added.

Very interesting, good research

should have named it 4-2-0 pls

learn to talk better english, like listening to a monkey

Austrian Army or Australian Army?

one thing :
get a better mic

I thought the thumbnail was fake

That green truck isn't the T-REX. This is www.reddit.com/r/Trucks/comments/1x77d7/was_the_dodge_trex_concept_ever_put_into/

Why do you talk like you have braindamage?

when you look at it from the extra friction point of view, that's not necessarily a bad thing. with 4 wheels turning you get double the steering power.

4 wheels in the front sure is badass..

mike wasawski's car from monster inc

8 wheels > 6 wheels

I've always had a liking for 6 wheeled cars

Talks about tire pressureing on the go; shows a video of a g wagon with fully inflated standart tires in soft sand ...

this guy sonds like russian

citroen cx

It's not Tyrrell as in typing but Tyrrell as in tipping

Citroen Cx 6x6

you missed the range rover 6x6. seen a couple used as fire trucks.

Funnily enough I see 6 wheeled utes (pickup trucks) here in Brisbane Australia all the time, they're rated to carry a lot more weight and need the contact patch and better suspension provided by 4 rear wheels.

Best 6 wheeled car ever...The Wolfrace Sonic.

Arab shut heritage force past glance species gesture guitar invisible light enemy.

Isn't the panther the car that Lady Penelope use in thunderbird?

A ram with a v10, 6 wheels and high compression pistons with a billet crankshaft? Thats fucking insane

How come no sound clips for the Raptor 6x6?

Where is Arctic Trucks Toyota Hilux 6x6 ?

No you do not need a truck licence you need a truck licence for anything over 7.5 tonnes who is giving wrong information about europe, non of those vehicle are classed as trucks in the the UK last time i look the UK is in europe spain has a limit 3.5 tonne for pickup vehicle to become commercial so that would mean the mercedes is still a car in Spain which is also europe. This is just two example in europe where you made a mistake about classifications of vehicles in fact within the EU there is no maximum weight for a car nor is there a limitation on axles so where you got your info from for say the Mercedes is a truck and you need a truck licence is beyond me as there are no such rules within the EU .

8 wheel cars?

Great video, I love the idea of six wheeled cars. I always learn a lot from your videos.

You are still fighting with the word "due", so funny to hear it :D

The 4 driven wheels on F1 cars were not ridiculous.
The 4 rear wheels on the Williams were much smaller and had less drag. They were also slimmer and allowed room on the underside for more ground effect down force.
The idea was not killed due to lack of funds and extra weight. The 6 wheel F1 cars like the Williams were stopped by regulations because they were too fast.
Didn't know about either the Ford or Dodge. Good video.

Wait, you need a special license to drive a passenger vehicle weighing over 7,500 lbs in Europe? In Canada it's 25,000 lbs... You could daily a Pete 389 on a G license so long as you're not hauling

Forgot the Devel Sixty

Fix your fucking diction and learning proper pronunciation.

thank god for subtitles,i hear only : blabla blablabla

the trucks can pull off the look. every single one of those cars is ugly as sin

Its like a girl with 4 boobs. Its weird but everyone wish to bang one some day

In Asia you need the MERC itself for you to be able to drive...Good luck to get one at a dealer.

Amazing!I I was pretty sure the thumb was a clickbait

i can imagine that having 4 wheels in the back makes it under steer a lot

And where is Citroen CX Tissiere?

Let's make a Formula 1 car with 6 tires in front and 4 in back. Yeah, that'd be super cool. And huge spoilers for downforce. Yeah. And put a really loud stereo in it with gigantic subs. Perfect.

If that Panther ever got any where near 200mph I'd eat my hat.

3 or more axles makes sense for offroaing but many prefer trucks for that since vehicle's width is less of a problem

For the Renault it's not exactly true there are more than one and some even drive in france.

God French cars are ugly.

The Covini C6W looks like a Saleen S7 with autism.

There was a 6 wheeled Opel Manta used in the german Movia „Manta - Der Film“ which actually drove. Look it up om google, it looks awesome!

monsters inc. ispired

That g wagon 6x6 should have a Cummins shoved under that hood

Mercedes did have a few 6x6's made in the 1940's, but you can't really find footage of these...

No 6x6 Range Rover....

I like your videos but man! It was better when you didn't talk 😅

you left out Lady Penelope's Rolls Royce

Please make a video on Toyota's M series engine. It would make me sing!! eg. 2m; 5m-ge; 7mgte etc...

Like the subject but the voice over is horrible

The covini does have peugeot 206 front lights or is it just me?

You can't even pronounce words properly pathetic, go learn proper English or don't speak it at all . I'm English I'm extremely fluent in Greece and the accent, French, German etc Theres no excuse for English, nob

What about the FAB1 Ford Thunderbird concept? Granted, not exactly a production car or anything but still... 6 wheels

Awesome video!

i've never seen them on video, just pictures. great stuff visio :)
now, i KNOW there must be some eastern bloc equivalent of these things. right? RIGHT?

LMAO one Renault in this list and it caught fire. How surprising :-D

You forgot the Opel Manta 6x6

A 6x6 means a wheel-alignment that costs 6x as much!

Where's the Pinzgauer 6x6?

Where is the 5th diff on the AMG 6×6?

The information on the side is always being cut off for me ever since the youtube update. Anyone else?

if you want more than four wheels, get an LAV.

That Dodge was very impressive!!

The amg 6x6 came about from the Australian military 6x6 gwagon

I thought the G36 was created by grafting a G body on a Unimog chassis which already comes with portal axles, wheel inflation system, a 6 wheel version and a surprising number of diff locks.
The Tyrell ultimately failed because the tyre manufacturer did not develop the small size any further for the next season.

1968-70 oldsmobile totonado Jetway 707? 6 wheels and fwd

Tissier did a lot of 6 wheeler old Citroens. Althought they are not official Citroen models, there were lots of units built.

on Czech and Slovaks road this is a perfect cars

Damn that Merc sounded ugly. :P Also, I believe the Williams FW08B held the F1 average lap speed record (259.005 km/h, old Silverstone) before the record got smashed in Monza (not sure if it was the lap by Montoya that got in turn beaten last weekend).

Australian army hads a few 6x6 land rovers

Mercedes G 6x6 "five locking diff", I don't understand wher the fifth is : 1 front, 1 central, 2 rear. Can someone explain ?

Toyota also built 6x6 FJ40 Landcruisers for use as fire trucks in Japan.

It might be potentially advantageous to, rather than individually spring the corner wheel pairs, to instead put a heave spring between them to create a sort of virtual bogey. This set up would allow for bump compliance while also resisting both body roll and aerodynamic loads. An actual bogey wouldn’t be a good option because there’d be no camber gain under load... unless the difference between the net front corner ride heights could be used to tilt it, hmmmm.

I like the Panther.

The merc 6x6 looks like some one pulled the ass of a g class

If you want to see an insane 6X4 burnout look up the australian team army Landrover its called Armageddon

6:22 - threw up in my mouth!

That Merc G63 has 0 problems in that loose sand though. Impressive.And 6 difflocks + adjustable tirepressure is just cool. 😎

1:16 That ping noise

The G63 was/is one of my dream cars for a long time, especially the upgraded Brabus version

you missed saab 900 6 wheeler
