£76,140 OTR/£79,481 as tested/£1,141 pcm WHY IT'S HERE: Does a utilitarian off-roader work as a lifestyle vehicle? DRIVER: OLLIE MARRIAGE
TEST ONE: IS IT POSSIBLE TO LOSE an Ineos Grenadier in long grass? It's 2,050mm tall, so that's a bit of an ask. Test two might be trying to fit a 2m lofty off-roader into a multi-storey, and you could argue that would be a much more valid experiment, but you'd also be missing the point of what the Grenadier is about. This is a car for real jungles rather than urban ones.
