Ineos Grenadier review from an actual owner. Live first drive from my wife.

‪@INEOSGrenadier‬ we have actually bought this car and this is our short review of the vehicle. This is also the first time my wife has driven the vehicle so we film her reaction live.

[@projectwildearth]

We're currently on a 5-year trip in a Grenadier across the world towing a Patriot X3, which we live in. If you're watching this review, it may be of interest. We set off from London in mid-July 2023 with our two young kids and we’re approaching 50000km. At least 70% of our journey has been off-road...

[@andrewwiltshire2689]

For those not familiar with the vehicle specs, and worried about rear seat legroom, he has ordered a version that move the rear seats forward to get more load space. This also exposes the glue lines in the rear. If you order the normal version the rear seat Is further back and the rear legroom is quite decent.

[@kmg3144]

Which option is it that moves the rear seat forward?

[@jason_usa]

So this is a commercial version? If so then I'm reassured because I was surprised with lack space behind 6ft driver position. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gIemYmewo9icr7M

[@andrewwiltshire2689]

@@jason_usa yes thats right. I am 6’2” and have sat in a normal version in the back and I can sit there fairly comfortably it’s no limousine but its fine. Probably slightly better than my old Discovery 3

[@andrewwiltshire2689]

@@kmg3144 I think it’s called a commercial version, don’t think it’s an option where I am in Australia but is in Europe

[@billgreenley4013]

In the US are 3 versions: Fieldmaster, Trialmaster and non-Belstaff. The rear seats are positioned the same in all 3 of these, correct? I don't think we have the commercial version in the US that is being review here.

[@tomjet1000]

Nice and honest review, thanks, been follwing the Grenadier since day 1 but still in love with my Defender 110, too bad there's all the wind noise, got my test drive still ahead of me, enjoy the Greadier.....greets from Switzerland

[@ghost6500]

Me too, I've been following the Grenadier since day 1, it looks nice and robust but there is no price tag in the USA yet. I still drive a 2016 LR4 (Disco4) Supercharged, Luxury, it has 81500 miles or 131161 Km. and I get 17.6 miles/gallon or 7.39 Km/liter. My average speed is 83 MPH (133 KMH) It still runs like new and it looks new as well. The price will be the turning point for me to get a new Grenadier.

[@csaleman]

Exactly the type of review that I'm have been waiting for. Thanks

[@JeremyEdwards996]

I have the same N1(van) model; the rear seats are about 7.5cm further forwards than the M1(car), but for 6' me and 5' 4" wife, the seats are not an issue. The Grenadier is a vast improvement on a 1989 LR110CSW, even some minor electronic gremlins have not dampened my spirits. On longer journeys, it has proved to be a big comfy truck, with the mpg slowly improving from 22.7mpg to 24.3mpg as it loosens up.

[@JeremyEdwards996]

I think Ineos are going to sell these as quickly as they can make them. Such a demand for this kind of vehicle, and you yourself confirmed it, coming from a Defender.

[@PRC619]

Well done you two!! Good honest, and more importantly.... informative review!!!!

[@johncanalese588]

Thanks for the video and your initial thoughts. As others have said, a better microphone (wireless lapel mic), and not filming near busy roads would helpful as is was very difficult at times to hear and understand you. I had one on order, here in Australia but I unfortunately had to cancel after I had opportunity to sit in one. I am 6ft tall but more solid build than you and that driving position was not comfortable for me. We drive long distances here in Australia and I could foresee pain, as my left leg was jammed between the center console and the wheel and accelerator was askew. Later in the video, we see you driving and I must say that is not the seating position I adopt - you clearly like sitting right back from the wheel and reaching/leaning forward to drive (may also explain the compromised space behind you), unless it’s just camera angle. My take away is that the driving position, especially for RHD vehicles is indeed compromised but it will suit some body shapes/driving styles better than others. FYI, not sure why you purposely selected the BFG’s option (other than you say they look "cool"), as they are great off-road but their on-road performance is not as good and in the wet they can get scary.

[@jerrymyahzcat]

Looking cool is NOT a reason to choose a certain tyre.

[@QnA22]

His steering position seems correct? Steering wheel at arms length with a bit of flex. OK, the way he steers is outright dangerous and irresponsible with the one hand cornering and keeping only one hand at 12 o clock, but that may have been done for filming purposes only.

[@stuartpalmer3404]

I agree, the audio was poor. However, a lapel mic is not necessarily an improvement. They can be very susceptible to wind noise as well. If it was me, the first step would be having the camera person listening to the audio, they are recording, and then taking appropriate action.

[@highlandmalt6368]

Thanks for this - great to hear from an owner. I'm very interested in one but I wanted a other buyers to take the leap first!

[@NočníMůry]

I'm loving the review! Would be a huge quality bump if you'd purchase a mic but I'm sure you are already aware of that. Or you can buy cheap "dead cat" for iphones.. it would cancel the wind at least! Keep it up! I would love hearing more from you.

Danke für dieses sympathische und ehrliche Video! Ich hab den Grenadier zwei Stunden lang probegefahren und ich war auch ziemlich begeistert. Schlecht fand ich den etwas geringen Platz im Innenraum mit 196cm Körpergröße. Und die sich nicht von selbst Rückstellende Lenkung.

You can move the rear seats back as all the mounting points remain in spite of the N1 requirements.. i noted your carpet comment, but the carpet mats are a great compromise.

Hi, are the rear seats very upright as well? I’m a bit disappointed about the leg room which you mentioned. The centre console in the middle would make it uncomfortable for the middle passenger too I’m assuming? I forgot to ask if this is the commercial station wagon. The passenger Belstaffs are supposed to have a more reclined rear seat right?

Good video mate, thanks for posting. I like that you pointed out the few things that you don't like as well. Can I ask how you find the vision out of the side windows, does the B pillar annoy you in anyway? Also, I have the same tyres on my current 4wd. I've found that if the wheel alignment is out then the tyres will start making a lot of road noise. Run your hand over them occasionally and you'll soon feel if the outside blocks are wearing unevenly as they'll be quite "sharp".

[@christophkammel6403]

I am 6’ 4 and test drove the petrol version which I seriously enjoyed. One thing to watch out for is the adjustability of the side mirrors which does not have a sufficiently wide range. So I found myself leaning into the mirrors while driving to catch everything I wanted to see. This is particularly noticeable when you merge onto a motorway. I also found the center display touch response lacking and fiddly to operate and to have the volume button for the tinny sounding stereo system stuck behind the gear leaver is irritating. The buttons all look more industrial than they feel. But overall, driving, seats etc. all felt great. Loved the overhead windows. They give the cabin a nice airy feel. Not an inner city car though. It likes a bit of room.

[@thebrandtour1469]

I don’t mind it. It’s clear enough to glance across. The teslas are all the same. My main issue is that it makes the infotainment screen smaller. If the speedo was in the normal position then the screen could be used solely for sat nav which I think I would prefer.

Reasonable question if off road ability and durability are not an issue for you. I think that defining a true off road vehicle by its cup holders, or lack thereof, is the reason that Land Rover gave up.

[@kmg3144]

@@damienmorris2903 there is no debate that cup holders do not make a great off-roader. The challenge comes when you have a partner that is assessing the minimum feature set. For my needs the vehicle is near perfect with the primary concern being that, while the parts are proven, the collective of them working together in a new vehicle still need proving. I am campaigning to my better half that we are better off without certain features other vehicles have, but since the vehicle is not here for me to see it, I have to poll those whom have it.

[@damienmorris2903]

@@kmg3144 Agreed. Time will tell. In Australia resale value after 6 or 7 years is one of the best indicators of reliability and durability. I think that they will sell reasonably well here to well off people who generally don't do much off road work but want something different - and don't care about resale value. Cup holders, acceleration, top speed, cornering, home comforts, electronics galore etc are important to them but of course when you are in the really rough stuff are completely useless.

Looks like a solid, practical, capable 4X4 aimed at the many loyal Land Rover enthusiasts who are disillusioned by LR’s departure from the classic rugged, angular character of the old Defender. For those who are in the market for a solid, capable 4X4 who do not adhere particularly to the traditional LR image, consider this… what kind of late model, low mileage, high spec Toyota Land Cruiser, with its proven pedigree and track record for reliability and durability, and for holding its value, could you get for £60,000?

Although there are things you wish to see made differently on this vehicle, I believe that people with high expectations of this vehicle as being a drivers car is not what this vehicle is made for. If that is what you are looking for then you need a Range Rover Discovery that has been turned into a "CAR" with 4 wheel drive characteristics ment for people who expect on road manners. This vehicle and the need for a vehicle like this for it Utility capabilities that was stolen from those who had that with Land Rover by people requesting more refinement like yourself started with small things about unnecessary changes that diminished it original design and use. You buy a vehicle like this to take it off road in the harshes environments not to test the vehicle but to use it to get in and out of places where you may also call home, like Alaska, where civilization stops and wild begins.
