Torque is an important factor in offroad vehicles because it provides the rotational force necessary to drive the vehicle through difficult terrain and provide acceleration when climbing steep hills, driving through mud, and traversing other rough terrain. Torque is also necessary to bring the vehicle back to a stop after traversing a difficult offroad section. Torque is important in offroad vehicles because it can provide the necessary power to scale obstacles, provide additional traction and stability, and allow for more control when driving in uncertain terrain.
