Raised Air Intake: The snorkel raises the vehicle's air intake point, typically to roof level or higher. This helps prevent water ingestion into the engine during water crossings, reducing the risk of hydro-locking the engine.
Improved Dust Filtration: By drawing air from a higher point, the snorkel reduces the amount of dust and debris that enters the engine's air intake system. This can help prolong engine life and improve performance, especially in dusty or sandy environments.
Durable Construction: Discovery 4 snorkels are constructed from durable materials such as UV-resistant plastics or fiberglass, designed to withstand the rigors of off-road driving and exposure to harsh environmental conditions.
