Actually, in the LC, i can do it easily on one tank,with heaps to spare.Borderline in the old D4,probably would have to top up somewhere.
Thats from Pinkenba,where the Moreton ferry leaves,to Inskip and back.

So if you have a big tank,no worries

Of course, they’ve moved it since I lived there.

I don't think I can now drive anywhere and not be able to purchase fuel anywhere in a 4-500km radius.

My vehicle has a normal driving range of 850 km, makes carrying fuel a surplus requirement.

Ummm... driving across the Simpson for instance... On the Madigan I try and carry 220-240l of diesel. I have 130 in the tank (or maybe it's realistically 120) and I carry 100 in jerry's. I typically get into Birdsville with 40-50 left which is a comfortable reserve. I've never got there with the light on but 1/4 is typical.

If you go driving in sand you might find 20/100 is to be planned for just in case the sand is soft..

does anyone know what range a tankfull of fuel in the grenadier has?

As others have stated the tank for both fuel types is 90. The stated economy is 10.5 for the diesel and 12.6 for the petrol.

We will have to wait until the cars are in the hands of owners to find out what the real world economy is.

Also, once the cars get here the aftermarket will no doubt be trying to find ways to increase the fuel capacity as a matter of urgency. Time will tell.

So.. can I just say.. on the Grenadier forum it's quite alarming how many Defender owners there are. Like almost universally with the occasional G-wagon person.

When Grenadier production gets going there is going to be an unusual supply of defenders on the second hand market...

At the same time as they are increasing the weight.....
