In the thrilling review of the Ineos Grenadier by Doug DeMuro, we're introduced to a true off-road beast that harks back to the glory days of rugged SUVs. Priced at a hefty $80,000, this British creation is a nod to the classic Land Rover Defender and Toyota Land Cruiser, designed for those who crave adventure without the frills. With its no-nonsense, utilitarian approach, the Grenadier stands out in a sea of soft, luxury SUVs, embodying the spirit of true off-road exploration.
Under the hood, the Grenadier boasts a BMW-sourced 3L straight-6 engine, tuned specifically for pulling power rather than outright performance. This powertrain, paired with a standard four-wheel drive system, ensures that the Grenadier is ready to tackle any terrain with ease. Despite its British roots, this SUV is manufactured in France, adding a unique twist to its story. The interior is a button-lover's paradise, with a plethora of switches and dials for climate control, off-road settings, and more.
Stepping inside the Grenadier reveals a cockpit filled with buttons and switches, reminiscent of a fighter jet's control panel. The infotainment system, while not cutting-edge, offers unique features like the Pathfinder function for recording off-road trails. The back seat provides surprising roominess, but lacks storage options and easy access, highlighting a few drawbacks in an otherwise impressive interior. The cargo area, accessed through a split tailgate design, adds to the Grenadier's practicality and versatility for all your adventure gear.
