Ineos Grenadier 2021

The Ineos Grenadier is an upcoming rugged off-road utility vehicle that is proposed to be built in Wales, but which may be built in France.

The Grenadier was designed by Ineos Automotive Ltd, a company founded by Jim Ratcliffe, billionaire chairman of the multinational chemicals company, Ineos. The Grenadier, which is strongly reminiscent of the old Land Rover Defender, has boxy bodywork, a steel ladder chassis, beam axles with long-travel progressive-rate coil spring suspension (front and rear), and is to be powered by BMW six-cylinder engines.

It's always refreshing to see an totally new design !

This is the true Defender replacement. The new Range Rover Defender is only a Defender in name only.

I think it's refreshing in a different way- it hasn't changed much in its scope of practice. In the name of comfort, the Defender has deviated too far from its original mission and turned into a mall cruiser. I don't need something as spartan as the original Defender. A modern Land Cruiser would be fine. The interior of the new Defender looks tacky.

For some reason this truck sponsors a Tour de France team.
