Could this be the British Army’s next 4x4? 🇬🇧🚙
We go inside the Ineos factory in Warwickshire for the official launch of Team Grenadier – a consortium bidding to replace the British military’s iconic Land Rover fleet.
With around 5,000 Land Rovers being retired, the Armed Forces are looking for a new light mobility vehicle by 2030. Ineos is going up against major contenders including GM Defense and Jaguar Land Rover.
We take a closer look at the military-spec Grenadier, including an armoured prototype designed to provide protection against high-velocity rounds and artillery shrapnel.
The contenders are due to deliver demonstration vehicles to the Ministry of Defence in October, with a decision on the replacement for the Land Rover expected next year.
Could the Grenadier be the Land Rover’s successor? Let us know what you think in the comments.

We had one on a very challenging earthworks job and it did nothing but play up and flatten its battery, sent it back to the yard and took the 110 defender back.
Is there no other UK company that can do it in house.
Compare it with a Mitsubishi L400 Delica from 1999.
High and low range gearbox with locked differential options, good ground clearance, 3 litre V6 engine, column gear shift so easy access from drivers seat to the rear, (no central console), rear and side access doors ideal for ambulance etc. And it's right hand drive with air con and heater ....a much more modern concept than the one shown....and that was 26 years ago.
