Switzerland 4 is the fourth level of the Switzerland track featuring the rally car. It is raced in the reverse direction of the preceding level, accompanied by intensified snowfall on the track. A new route is also opened at the midway point, guiding racers through a two-mile stretch of twists and turns along a jagged, narrow road.
This race is also available in the Split-Screen and Head-To-Head modes, where it is referred to as Switzerland A and contains only two laps instead of three.

Race[]
Switzerland 4 presents a drastically altered track compared to Switzerland 3. A significant portion of the course is now covered in snow, and the AI's aggressive driving style results in frequent pileups and collisions. These incidents, combined with varying speeds, create a dynamic that constantly reshuffles the AI positions throughout the race.
The newly introduced section of the track can prove challenging to navigate due to its narrowness and slippery surface. However, considering that many of the AI opponents struggle with poor driving, occasional mistakes do not usually result in the player falling far behind. As long as the player manages to remain reasonably close to Rossi and Morgen, their chances of winning the race remain strong.
Despite a fast initial pace, the frontrunners will decelerate during the final lap, with the 1st and 2nd HT's speed dropping to 98 mph. These slowdowns make Switzerland 4 notably less challenging than its counterpart, Scotland 4. Unless Rossi or Morgen occupies the lead by the final lap, the player has a promising opportunity for a comeback, even if they experience a slow start.
