You forgot that it is engineered in Austria! I live here in Austria, only about 40 miles from Magna and it was a pleasure to see the first prototypes of the Grenadier driving around here and see how they evolve. I drive a G wagon but if I would buy a new car today, I would take the Grenadier because it is like the G wagon was about 25 years ago - a solid vehicle without useless bling bling.

Exactly , I think it’s the W463 G wagon underpinning’s replacement which Magna had evolved for Mercedes . They decided the pop stars & footballers didn’t care about off reading so went with conventional front independent suspension . Like you j had a G wagon and I did replace it with the grenadier . I’m so glad I did , the bmw diesel is a peach . My only moan is on a cosmetic side , the modern bmw gear never . Why they didn’t use an old style bmw lever is beyond me. Other than that it’s a fair better built truck than my 2018 G wagon .

Here in the US, we can’t buy anything like the stripped back GWagen professional config. We only have options for pimped out configs for $140k and up, THEN we have to spend another $40-70k to strip out all the garbage we didn’t want in the first place and turn it back into what we wanted all along. Aaaaaand it will still not have a solid front axle. Mercedes saw they could make a ton of money selling purple GWagens with massive rims and posh leather to rappers - and they were right. In the meantime, the G Wagen lost its soul. This isn’t Magna Steyr’s fault - the platform is solid. It’s just Mercedes following the money.

But that logic gives no value to the parts it replaces. For example if you were building a vehicle from scratch, you either pick independent suspension or solid axle right? You don’t ADD the cost of solid axle to the price on top of buying independent suspension. With the grenadier everyone makes that same excuse, “it’s beefier” ok so if an independent suspension costs $3,000 and a solid one costs $5,000… that would add $2,000 to the cost of the vehicle NOT $30,000 😅. I was ready and had a grenadier being built for me but I backed out with the $80,000 price tag. On a Lexus GX for example, the price of the electric seats, the price of the analog gauge cluster, the mark levinson stereo, the existing independent suspension, the 3rd row of seats etc, imagine taking all of that out and getting a refund and buying solid axels and skid plate with the cost of ALL those parts. Why does it cost more? The lack of things should be credited to the vehicle and somehow that was lost. You take all the stuff off of a 4Runner, what is the parts value? Why does this cost $30,000 more than a 4Runner? It doesn’t make any sense.

Man Case had really come a long way! He has become a damn good reviewer/journalist. Way to go Case!

I would say this vehicle is great and amazingly capable. The only thing is that it is about $20-$25k too expensive for what you're getting based on the creature comforts. Knock down the price and it is an incredible purchase, but without those creature comforts, I could never justify buying it.

This is a great review guys, just to give people a sense of capability. I think most people are (begrudgingly) willing to give it credit as an adventure/overland truck, but the off-road crowd are really whiny about the lack of “extreme” specs (37’s with 14” of clearance, anyone?). This is a good review to show how the Grenny just takes it all in stride without the drama. My first off-road experience was pre-production; at one point, I caught myself with one hand off the wheel and the other at 6 in lazy man’s position. I had to check myself and wake up - but that kind of shows how it turns hard work into daily business. It’s not really trying to be a beast - it’s just tough-as-nails, “get the job done” in a reasonable way and comfort. That’s a testament to the extraordinary overbuild (congrats Magna) and the quality of construction (bravo production team in Hambach). It also shows when you get the basics right, you don’t have to resort to theatrics on suspension, wheel specs, horsepower, etc. It just moves gracefully along in a friendly, competent and unassuming way. As we say in Wisconsin, “opes, sorry dere guy, lemme just schootch right past ya.” Toot toot.

When you “lock” the center diff lock, a less active / reduced ECS capability is in play. I would’ve tried it without center diff lock and without “off-road mode” but still low range, to test the traction control system, and then the use of lockers for the second test. Keep up the good work guys

Of course it's fantastic off road. They build some of the world's best 4x4's. Let's not forget that Magna has always built a lot of top marque European automobiles. A thoroughly impressive 3.7 million vehicles for 10 OEMs, divided into 30 different models, have so far come off the production line at Magna Steyr's Graz plant. Currently the Graz plant is also manufacturing the legendary Mercedes-Benz G-Class, Jaguar models I-PACE and E-PACE, the BMW 5 Series, the BMW Z4 and the Toyota GR Supra. They have built cars since 1906! My 1988 VW Westfalia 4x4 camper, with triple lockers, and a Gelande low gear, was built by them.

Made it look easy. Looks ready to go toe-to-toe with any stock off-roaders. If the brand survives they may sort out the niggles in a couple of iterations, including the price.

Great video review as always and it is a fantastic vehicle, definitely as good as the G wagon for overlanding. No surprise there as both are designed by Magna in Austria.

Very interested in the Fusilier, especially with what the "range extender" might be able to do!

For the diff locks you could try and hold the button for like 3-5 seconds then let go and after that quickly press it. Not sure if thats the way to do it or not but its worth a try. If that doesnt work then you could try to do it the other way around by pressing it quickly and then holding it for 3-5 seconds and see if that works easier.

Coming from someone who lives in a country with a terrible reputation for overpriced badly built unreliable vehicles.

I was a skeptic when it first came out, and I still hate the warning cluster in front of the steering wheel. But videos like this really do an amazing job of impressing what the Grenadier can do. The clincher though is Jeep’s ridiculous pricing on their Wranglers now. I specced out a Rubicon 4door the way I would order it, and it is the same money as a Grenadier. Question to the team - are you going to put a mild lift kit on it with upsize tires?

I love watching TFL they tried all off road vehicle you can imagine , maybe next time would be a 6x6, my take with Grenadier is the shift lever its somewhat out of touch

If I have lockers and look at that first obstacle, I use the lockers right off the bat. Been to Moab a few times, have a lifted rubicon on 35's.

The biggest things about the Grenadier vs the Wrangler is the full time 4WD in the Grenadier vs part time 4WD in the Wrangler. The payload on the grenadier is something like 1800lbs, but a Wrangler Rubicon is only like 1100lbs. Towing on the Grenadier is also close to 8000lbs, but the wrangler Rubicon is 3500lbs. So overall the Grenadier is a much more capable vehicle for carrying a load and towing, it’s also bigger and boxier so more interior room and storage space. I think Jeep has better modern features like blind spot monitors, better infotainment, ability to remove the top, etc.

It’s a vehicle that will be around for a long while.

First, if you stop and go every time you have a step with open diffs you won’t make it with any vehicle with open diffs, momentum is your friend. Second, when I test it last year they have a specific protocol to get everything in “off-road mode” it started with putting it in off-road mode, followed by low range and then locking it (if you need to, which during the testing we didn’t needed to) also they made it to be driven in manual mode not automatic when in off-road. Third, take it to an actual challenging trail with an experienced driver, truly test it.

Its one of the most reliable and well put together vehicles ever made. Thats not only becoming extremely rare its also worth every penny! No Wrangler or Bronco even come close in that regard. Not to mention americas bad manufacturing quality... The Grenadier is what the G Wagon used to be and im glad they didnt try to save money just because every other manufacture does. All in all its a very fair prais for those who will use it for what its designed for.

These will be great buys in the used market 5 years from now.

I feel like Ineos needs to create drive modes that are easy to turn on for situations, rather than all the button pushes to get what you need. But still leaving the option to switch things on and off manually.

Can’t help but make a comparison here. I have a ‘95 80 series Land Cruiser with a straight 6 (albeit not turbo…yet) center, front and rear locker (lockers are Eaton with individual switches so front can be locked independently from rear) also lockers are nearly instantaneous lock and unlock with a small occasional roll to unlock at times. Straight axels, sliders, low profile roof rack and purposeful bull bar front bumper for about 11-12k on stock height suspension and 33’s. Essentially a match in functionality to the Ineos at about 68k less and probably the same ride quality. Obviously not the same power performance but a lot of that can be mitigated with the leftover 68k.

@@mikehunt-ew3pmMike - it’s important to separate the idea of 4wd from locked center diff. The Grenadier is full time 4wd - meaning power goes to all 4 wheels according to the needs of each wheel. Slipping differentials allow that power supply and the rate of turn to differ for different wheels - imagine turning a corner on dry pavement - the wheels on the inside of the turn radius need to travel shorter distance than those of the outside. The center diff, when it is locked, connects the “push” between the front wheels and back wheels. When the center diff is unlocked, it DOESNT mean you are no longer in 4wd- it just means the front and back are powered differently. Let’s say you are going up on a sandy or icy ledge - where only the rear has traction. You don’t want the front tires spinning, so lock the center diff and you’ll glide up, nice and easy. The front and rear lockers synchronize the front and rear wheels on their respective axles - helpful in a scenario where you have alternating deep ruts or boulders and one wheel would be left hanging. So, center connects front to back, front connects left and right on front axle, rear connects left and right on rear axle - but you’re ALWAYS in 4wd even if all 3 are unlocked.

I have a Trial Master and a Field Master. I love the lack of center speedometer and gauges. I don’t need to know that stuff when I’m off road. I need to know if I lose oil pressure or if my lockers are malfunctioning. Even on the highway, I like the extra visibility without the controls right in front of me. Also, the steering is not an issue on the highway. Most drivers will get used to it after a few miles. I would guess that most drivers would even prefer it over the standard rack n pinion set up. It just feels stout. There is no slop at all. If you put any input on the wheel, it tells you. And the hefty steering wheel has a lot to grip. I love it. I’ve owned Jeeps, Land Cruisers, Gladiators, LX’s and a Bronco Wildtrak. They all have their strengths and weaknesses. If the Grenadier remains reliable, it will be the best of them all. Buy one before the price goes up. Compared to what I’m seeing on a lot of dealer lots, the Grenadier is a bargain at $80K.

No play in the steering, and it still centered. Im sure you could back that bolt out just a bit on the steering gear box, and it would have the same effect.

Good review. You mentioned the on-road steering being “imprecise” again and that it is a compromise for off-road benefit. Have you had the caster angle checked yet? Thousands of Grenadier owners around the world are suffering no such compromise.

Nothing beats real-world testing and once they have 3+ years of customer vehicles on the road they will be able to dial this in and iron-out any of the kinks.

Put a 2" lift on that exact one and I'll take it😎

Does anybody lift GWagons?

What are we proving here ? An $80k Ineos can do the same thing as a $40k Wrangler or Tacoma?

Ok lets be incredibly real here. This vehicle can not do what a wrangler can do

Please, for the love of G, please turn lockers off and on in N

Glad you guys are learning how lockers work. Is Roman still convinced they don't matter? Still curious tho how you think $80k is cheaper than say $25k for a 3xl Land Cruiser.

The land cruiser would drag it's ass all over that.

It’s expensive because of the limited production of scale and the chosen hardware that’s under the hood and chassis. They chose to spend the money on the hardware that counts and not a bougie interior. If you want the build quality and the bougie you see what that costs in a G-Wagon 4 x 4 Sq. Even a decked out Defender is over $100K

Why do you say you do fins n things when you only do a part of the trail. I mean this obstacle is on fins n things that you can do or bypass
