    I suspect it will be a fantastic vehicle and will be significantly better offroad than anything in the LR stable. And quite liveable onroad (more so than the Defender (ie not the new Defender). BUT, while the components themselves look to be very good - well sourced and built - the concern I would have is backup. Arguably the engines could be serviced and troubleshot by BMW dealerships, but i do wonder about whether they would be keen unless it was a full BMW engine and BCU harness used for example.

    I am excited to see this vehicle. At present I am very happy with the comfort, load carrying ability and general ability of the new MR Triton (with canopy) but I do really like the sound of this new beastie. Having said that it would want to be very good and with good backup at close to double what the top spec Triton costs (I am talking Triton because whilst I still love my D2 I am not in the market for anything new that LR is offering up).

    Cheers

    The INEOS Grenadier 4x4 wagon, Son of Defender?

    The 4x4 Land Rover should have built, reportedly a 130 variant with a V6 engine.

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    Looks like Ineos are in consultation with Daimler to to now build the Grenadier at Hambarg Eastern France now in place of Portugal and wales. YouTube. Appariently it is to speed up production due to setbacks due to Covid.

    Interesting to see what occurs from this.

    Cheers, Chris

    grenadier models

    I would be very interested in purchasing one as the will be available as a cab chassis and SWB as well as other body styles To me the cab chassis option is great and I could retire my old series 2A . The new defender never really appealed to me because that option was not available and I already have a discovery , and said from the release of the new defender that it will only be competing with the discovery as a more basic cheaper option (but not cheap) . Nothing wrong with the discovery and I have removed all of the back seats to make it into e reasonable work vehicle but it is definitely not suitable for carting sheep ,especially the dead ones . I have just read an article in the Weekly Times and it says that INEOS are still developing the BMW engine to suit the vehicle so that it will be a high torque low revving engine which is exactly what is needed in a good off road vehicle
    No such thing as retirement when you have 3 land rovers on the road

    Ok - so nothing to get excited about at this stage - many great ideas and prototypes amount to nothing - haven't heard from Rivian for a while now.

    A lot of smoke and mirrors thus far, i don't believe all will come to fruition. A big ask to start up vehicle manufacturing from scratch.
