Jeremy Clarkson Completely Wrong About All-Wheel Drive Performance

Jeremy Clarkson had been deemed by one car enthusiast to be erroneous at his findings of all-wheel drive performance vehicles. Back when he was featured in "Top Gear," Clarkson claimed that the Mitsubishi Evo or Subaru STI were able to drift at any speed because of its grip. The said statement was deemed to be false.

According to Jalopnik, owners of the Mitsubishi Evo and Subaru STI had been wondering if what Clarkson claimed had been true as one of them tried to test a Ford Focus RS all-wheel-drive performance car to the test. Unfortunately, the car failed to meet the claims of Clarkson, which led the car enthusiast to think that Clarkson's statements were simply wrong.

Although the claimant attested that all-wheel drive performance cars were capable of giving drivers more traction when they tried to drift by corners, the same statement made by Jeremy Clarkson were said to be greatly overstated.

Furthermore, the said car enthusiast also claimed that since there are serious suspension attributes and drivetrain in these all-wheel drive performance cars, the car can only do too much and not turn as swiftly as Clarkson labeled the capacity to "at any speed."

In other news, Business Insider reported that Jeremy Clarkson, along with Richard Hammond and James May would be featuring "DriveTribe" in their show "The Grand Tour" come October. The said feature was to broadcast the hosts, along with 40 other engineers and experts in the automobile industry, building a high-performance project as they go along. Will the Jeremy Clarkson build the unit with overstated stats once again?

Catch an all new season of "The Grand Tour" featuring Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May this autumn only on Amazon. Will Clarkson modify his claims on all-wheel drive performance cars then?
