Grenadier
Purpose-built, no-nonsense off-roader with BMW power and a ladder-frame soul · 5 seats
REPRESENTATIVE PHOTODextar Vision / PexelsOur verdict
7.8 / 10The INEOS Grenadier is a rare thing in 2025 — a ground-up, purpose-built body-on-frame 4×4 with no heritage to lean on and nothing to prove except off-road competence. BMW's B58 inline-six gives it excellent power delivery, while three locking diffs and a proper two-speed transfer case make it genuinely capable on UAE dunes and mountain tracks. The downside is a utilitarian cabin that feels spartan compared to rivals, a network that is still maturing under AGMC, and fuel thirst that rivals a Patrol.
Who it's for — Serious off-road enthusiasts who want maximum capability without a premium badge tax — buyers who care more about portal axles and locking diffs than heated steering wheels and ambient lighting.

- +BMW B58 inline-six is smooth, reliable, and well-proven
