Ineos Grenadier (2022 onwards) | Professional Ranking


Summary


The Ineos Grenadier is a five-door 4×4 SUV from fledgling automotive brand (and global chemical company) Ineos, which is designed to be a modern replacement of the original Land Rover Defender.

Named after the designer’s favourite pub, British reviewers agree that the Grenadier is both an impressive design feat and a fantastic proposition for buyers looking for a rugged off-roader.

Although offered in passenger versions, the Grenadier is primarily designed as a commercial vehicle. When it comes to more conventional urban and motorway driving, UK outlets argue that the 4×4 is too rough around the edges to be a serious contender to its more luxurious rivals.

What Car? explains that the SUV’s “the choppy ride and light steering” will be too much of a compromise for many motorists to handle, the Carbuyer team points out that the Ineos comes with “very little safety kit”, and Top Gear‘s Jason Barlow marks the car down for its “thirsty” engines and the “blind spot on the windscreen that needs sorting.”

Despite its flaws, the majority of motoring journalists conclude that the Grenadier is a charming 4×4 and a very capable off-road performer that can handle terrain most of its rivals would struggle to conquer. As Car‘s Colin Overland sums up his review, “it’s a car that can really take you to some incredible places.”

As of April 2023, the Ineos Grenadier holds an Expert Rating of 53%, based on ten reviews published to date by the UK motoring media. This score reflects its specialist off-road nature, which works against its suitability for regular family duties compared to many alternative vehicles.
