INEOS Grenadier
Car and Driver says if you're increasingly put off by new automotive technology, the 2026 Ineos Grenadier Station Wagon might be exactly what you're looking for, an off-road SUV that derives its luxury status more from its capability and novelty than from on-road comfort, with the Trialmaster Edition bringing BF Goodrich all-terrain tires and a snorkel air intake. MotorTrend says BMW's B58 turbo six-cylinder feels right at home under the hood of the Ineos, its smooth delivery of 282 hp and 332 lb-ft of torque made seamless with a ZF eight-speed automatic, while the U.K.-spec Trialmaster uses a 246-hp BMW B57 3.0-liter twin-turbo diesel instead. Car and Driver says every Ineos Grenadier Quartermaster comes with a 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen that can also be operated via a rotary dial, and that while the Quartermaster is only the second vehicle built by Ineos, the company says it's run the truck through more than a million miles of testing, including wildly ambitious off-road adventures.

Background and safety record
What public sources say about the INEOS Grenadier.
The Ineos Grenadier is an off-road utility vehicle designed and produced by Ineos Automotive. It went into production in October 2022. The Grenadier was designed to be a modern replacement for the original Land Rover Defender, with boxy bodywork, a steel ladder chassis, beam axles with long-travel progressive-rate coil spring suspension (front and rear), and powered by a petrol BMW B58 or diesel BMW B57 inline six turbocharged engine.
- Design
- While the Grenadier is not a direct replica of a Land Rover Defender (it uses none of the original tooling or componentry), Toby Ecuyer made it clear that their mission was specifically to build a modern Defender, saying it was a 'massive shame' that the outgoing Defender was ceasing production.
