When chemical engineer and British billionaire Sir James Ratcliffe was denied from buying the rights to the then-discontinued Land Rover Defender, the last thing the car world expected was that he’d be game enough to make his own – but that’s exactly what he did.
Named after his favourite pub in Belgravia, London, the Grenadier began production in 2022 as a modern iteration of the iconic no-frills Defender, with a few creature comforts that really make it a four-wheel-drive enthusiasts dream.
The line-up currently starts at $97,000 for the Grenadier (base) and ranges through to $123,000 for the range-topping Grenadier Trialmaster Edition.
