four-by-fours

Rugged terrain vehicles

Four-by-fours are vehicles with four-wheel drive—all four wheels receive power from the engine, improving traction on rough terrain.

The term comes from the notation 4×4, indicating four wheels total with four driven.

We took the four-by-fours up the mountain trail.

Also called four-wheel drives or simply 4x4s.
