According to the video, there is not much of an issue with climbing up the ice.<\/p>\n<p>Is a Jeep Gladiator Rubicon &#8211; with winter tires and all-wheel drive &#8211; also able to drive up as easily?<\/p>\n<p>Considering the purpose of the vehicle, we would expect that it should do at least as well as the Tesla. However, the video reveals that it&#8217;s not the case.<\/p>\n<p>The Jeep was able to go up with some initial momentum, but once stopped, it slides down and can not really go up from a standstill. That&#8217;s an interesting outcome.<\/p>\n<p>Tesla&#8217;s advantage might be a combination of multiple factors. Some of them are very smooth, precise control of the electric drive units (front and wheel), weight distribution and maybe specific tires.<\/p>\n<p>We are eager to see also some other EVs in this test to see whether they perform well too.<\/p>\n<section class=\"relatedContent-new\" contenteditable=\"false\" draggable=\"true\" data-widget=\"related-content\" data-widget-size=\"content\" data-params=\"%7B%22type_id%22%3A0%2C%22title_id%22%3A%22%22%2C%22items%22%3A%5B%7B%22article_edition_id%22%3A%22563125%22%2C%22title%22%3A%22New%20Tesla%20Model%203%20RWD%20(LFP%2060%20kWh)%20Gets%20Remarkable%20Winter%20Range%22%2C%22alias%22%3A%22tesla-model3-60kwh-winter-range%22%2C%22section%22%3A%221%22%2C%22is_video%22%3A%221%22%2C%22images%22%3A%7B%22s5%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.motor1.com%2Fimages%2Fmgl%2F6ZpVLZ%2Fs5%2Fpvbi9yjm92k.jpg%22%7D%7D%2C%7B%22article_edition_id%22%3A%22558130%22%2C%22title%22%3A%22Watch%20Tesla%20Model%20Y%20Slide%20Right%20Down%20A%20Snowy%20Hill%3A%20'It's%20Bad'%22%2C%22alias%22%3A%22tesla-modely-slide-snow-downhill%22%2C%22section%22%3A%221%22%2C%22is_video%22%3A%221%22%2C%22images%22%3A%7B%22s5%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.motor1.com%2Fimages%2Fmgl%2FXBoJR2%2Fs5%2Fi7p1eor1npq.jpg%22%7D%7D%5D%7D\">   <\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The humorous winter test of cars trying to go up on an icy incline is back.
