MARKET ANALYSIS
Grenadier (2023 to Present)

The Ineos Grenadier, a rugged off-roader inspired by the original Land Rover Defender, entered global production in 2022 and remains a key fixture in the 4x4 market for 2026. Available as a five-door station wagon, a two-seat utility wagon, or the Quartermaster dual-cab ute, it is powered by BMW-sourced 3.0L straight-six petrol or diesel engines. In the 2026 Australian market, the Grenadier has seen a notable increase in desirability following a major mid-life update that introduced a new variable-ratio steering box to address feedback regarding on-centre feel and low self-correction. Market values for new 2026 models typically range from $107,000 to $133,000 AUD drive-away, with the newly released, limited-run Black Edition sitting at the top of the price bracket. The buyer pool is composed of hardcore overlanders, agricultural professionals, and traditionalist enthusiasts who prioritise mechanical durability and physical toggle switches over the touchscreens found in modern rivals like the Toyota LandCruiser 300 or Land Rover Defender. Locally, liquidity is exceptionally high for the Trialmaster Edition—prized for its standard front and rear diff locks—as 2026 buyers increasingly view the Grenadier as the definitive "analogue" tool for remote Australian expeditions.
