Ineos Grenadier Reviews, Interior, News, Colours & For Sale in Australia

FROM $102,000

When chemical engineer and British billionaire Sir James Ratcliffe was denied from buying the rights to the then-discontinued Land Rover Defender, the last thing the car world expected was that he’d be game enough to make his own – but that’s exactly what he did.

Named after his favourite pub in Belgravia, London, the Grenadier began production in 2022 as a modern iteration of the iconic no-frills Defender, with a few creature comforts that really make it a four-wheel-drive enthusiasts dream.

The line-up currently starts at $102,000 for the Grenadier Quartermaster and ranges through to $118,000 for the range-topping Grenadier Quartermaster Fieldmaster Ed.

Ineos Grenadier Interior

At a minimum all Ineos Grenadiers feature utility trim, but higher-spec versions get leather trim or even Nappa leather via one of the available Packs.

The Grenadier retains a utilitarian look and feel across the line-up with myriad switches, buttons and dials, as well as a centre-mounted touchscreen (which incorporates the driver dash display), and heavy-duty flooring with drain valves.

It has a small glovebox, a centre-console storage space (for some smartphones, wallets and the like), USB-A and USB-C ports upfront, and big pockets in the doors (driver and front passenger).

There are grab handles, a dual-range transfer case shifter on the centre console, and a well laid-out spartan cabin.

Ineos Grenadier FAQs

Does the Ineos Grenadier come in manual?

No, there is not. Obviously, being a small manufacturer, Ineos needs to rationalise as much of the vehicle as possible, and adding a manual transmission version would have cost a lot extra in terms of design, development, engineering and testing.

The good news is that the standard transmission for the Grenadier is the rather good ZF eight-speed automatic that has been used by car-makers all over the world. It's a smooth, clever transmission that seems to suit many vehicles very well. And while the hard-core off-roaders out there will complain about the lack of a clutch-pedal option, the reality of modern automatics is that, for most drivers, they actually work better off-road than a manual ever did, particularly in sand or when tackling steep climbs.
