This video demonstrates how different vehicle designs (wheels, tank treads, sliding plates, and legged walkers) perform on challenging surfaces like ice and slime, showing that surface contact area, wheel design, and stability mechanisms directly affect a vehicle's ability to maintain traction and move forward effectively.

Testing 18 LEGO Cars Run on ICE Water Tank: Who is Win? | LEGO SmartAdded:
What's up, guys? Today, we're answering a crazy question. Can a Lego car actually drive across a track made of slippery ice cubes? Let's find out.
First things first, we're setting up an ultra cold ice bath, packing it completely full with ice cubes.
Now, let's assemble our first contender, the power hub.
It comes equipped with dual motors. The chassis has a special tall design to minimize contact with the icy surface.
Connecting up the control unit and finishing it off with four wheels.
Here we go.
Oh no, it sank immediately.
Okay, let's swap the rubber wheels for four sliding plates.
Meet the paddle walker.
It flipped over in the icy water, too.
Next up, what's this? The steel tracks.
Attaching Technic beams and support frames to the motors.
Switching to four smaller, more compact wheels.
Then the control unit and the key feature, tank treads.
Halfway there.
No way. Belly flop in the water.
Update time. Let's add studs to the treads. Lightning fast. Cross the finish line. Up next, introducing the slide pad.
This version features two sliding plates mounted centrally, locked in place with sturdy Technic beams.
Motor and control unit installed.
Ready to roll.
The two plates are working, but not how we imagine. It's just stirring up ice without moving forward.
Now, say hello to the Star Leg.
Almost there.
These extended sliding plates make a huge difference.
And perfect run. The Star Leg dominates.
Hit that like button and subscribe for more awesome challenges. Hey Lego fans, I'm back. Today we're tackling an epic and seriously messy challenge. Racing Lego cars through a slime pit. Which one will conquer the goo? Let's find out.
First up, the crusher.
Attach the dual motors.
Then slap on four massive wheels.
Pop the control unit and let's roll.
Crusher plows through the slime like a champ. Watch the epic slow-mo replay of Total Domination.
Next, the glider.
This one's got two sliding plates, some connector axles and a chain link for power transmission.
Don't forget the motor.
Install the protective plates for the chain.
Finish with the control unit and go.
Uh-oh, it's crawling. And flip. Total fail.
Here's another angle of the disaster.
Now the twister.
Double motors check.
Four Lego gear wheels check.
Control unit done.
Hit the slime.
The twister. Lightning. Fast and unstoppable. Another easy win.
Introducing the blocker.
Two motors.
A loadbearing frame.
and eight small wheels plus a chain link and the control unit.
Release it.
Whoa, it's swerving.
Wait, it's correcting itself.
Crosses the line. Success.
Final contender, the stalker.
Attach the motor first.
Then the body.
Connect the body to the sliding plates.
Toss in the control unit.
Time to race.
The slider flipped over.
It can still move, but way off track now.
This isn't promising.
And no surprise here. Stalker goes down in defeat.
All right, folks. Welcome back. Today, we're testing a Lego vehicle's limits.
Can it haul heavy cargo across a flimsy nylon bridge? Will it survive? Let's find out. First up, a nylon bridge over a 10 cm gap. Starting with the two wheels.
Easy pass, no sweat.
The tank rolls right over like it's nothing. Next, the two-legged walker.
Smooth as butter.
Now, the four wheels.
Takes its time, but nails it.
The black wheel doesn't even hesitate.
Next challenge. 20 cm gap.
Can the two wheels handle it?
Yes. Nailed it.
[bell] How about the two-legged walker?
Zips across like a champ.
The tank, no problem. Four-wheel turn.
Still going strong.
Black wheel cleared it.
But we're not done yet. Let's triple the gap.
Two wheels up first.
Bridge sags, but it claws its way over.
[bell] Now hook up the cargo trailer.
Uh-oh. Chain snap.
Next, the two-legged walker.
Tilting bad. Almost flipping.
No, it's swerving off.
It's gone. Straight off the bridge.
What if we had the cargo trailer?
Bridge is way too slippery.
It's struggling hard, but nope.
Total fail.
Next contender, the tank.
Glides over and towels the trailer like a boss.
Now, let's lord 60 g of wooden planks.
Does it? Yes.
120 g.
Tank lops it off. [bell] 160 g.
Tank crosses, but the trailer's stuck.
Black wheel plays across. Zero effort.
>> [bell] >> Towing a trailer, no big deal.
60 g.
No problem.
120 g.
Oops. Same issue as the tank.
Last try. The four wheels.
It could win, right?
And success.
Now attach the cargo trailer.
Slow but steady. Right.
Four wheels pulls it off.
[bell] Load 60 g of wood.
Come on. You got this.
Just as I expected.
120 g.
The car rolls slowly forward.
Trailers inching up.
made it. Nice.
160 g.
Can it handle this too?
Almost there.
Scores another win.
Final test 200 g.
Halfway.
Nope. Too heavy. Four wheels gives up.
Up next, I'll show you how to build all five cars.
First, the two wheels. Simple design, a compact frame, and two big rubber wheels.
Car number two, way bigger frame.
and tank treads.
Guess what? It's the tank.
Which one's next?
Check out these funky walking legs.
Yep. It's the two-legged walker.
Vehicle number four.
Another large frame.
Six gears plus two drive chains.
Bet you know this one.
Plus these grippy studded wheels.
Our champion, the four wheels.
Last one. Obviously, the black wheel.
Those wheels are built tough.
Attach the frame. Add the motor and control unit.
And we're done. Thanks for watching.
Oh, thanks.
Heat. Heat.
>> [music] >> Okay.
