To whoever in the audio pipeline made the necessary changes, thank you! First video in a while that has sounded good. Great review as always.
Voicover was still a bit poppy, but yeah definitely an improvement.
Love the concept of this vehicle but the real proof of this vehicle is is it reliable and will be long lasting. If so it will be a winner even at it’s cost.
A very niche vehicle, and what Autocar failed to mention is that due to the poor payload it will be extremely difficult for businesses to claim the vat back! Thats a massive handicap price wise!
You should be able to buy 2 ,or even 3 other pickups for the same price as one quartermaster....and those pickup will carry 250kg more than the inneos😢
Payload does not even matter now since April. Dual cab == no vat back because the government has decided so. Clearly people buying pickups instead of vans was a huge problem that our amazing and not helpless government jumped right onto 🤦♀️
@@theseb1979the govt reneged on that in feb
@@theseb1979 Same thing in belgium, you can no longer register pick ups as commercial vehicles, government doesn't doesn't want them I guess
@@theseb1979 the government did a u-turn on the proposal after lobbying from farming groups, the original criterias for claiming vat back still stands... And the quartermaster does not meet the 1000kg payload criteria
I'll be using this as a ASMR for taking power naps.
Good honest review. You pay for the ethos. I am in a strange position where I had direct visibil8ty of the only 1 in the UK at one point.
Why don’t you show us one of the most important thing in double cab pickup, the back seat space.
It's compromised, leg room is less than in the station wagon, but liveable, I felt like you also sit a bit more upright.
My local dealer is already discounting the Grenadier by £9k, maybe the niche' was smaller than anticipated? I followed Ineos and the Grenadier project from day 1, all the union Jack's and Britishness was slowly replaced and the price went up and up before Sir Jim moved to Monaco to avoid tax.
No doubt it's well engineered but I'd think it's lost a lot of UK buyers when production was started in France, chassis cab is interesting but I can't see the likes of Scottish power buying when the Toyotas they're presently using will be much cheaper and the Quartermaster has a lower payload than even the old Defender 130hcpu.
Recirculating ball steering is renowned for durability. The Birdsville Track in Australia is renowned for destroying ‘rack and pinion’ steering systems. The relative lack of self-centring at low speeds is typical of actual light trucks in the 2-3 tonne class AND this vehicle is, primarily, a work vehicle that will be purchased for genuine on/off road work. I anticipate 5-15 year ownership by most company buyers, dependent upon amount and severity of use.
A key criterion, for long term success of the Grenadier, will be :
How long can this vehicle be left unused, without a connected trickle charger, before it needs a jump start🧐?
The issue with these is that the radiator comes down below the front bumper so it fills with mud or grass seeds.
If its not able to carry a ton then its not vat reclaimable I believe. Would the chassis cab carry a ton?
As a life long Land Rover fan and Gladiator Mojave owner....I am seriously questioning the swap...
The trim level is called Trialmaster, not Trailmaster - named after the Belstaff jacket...
Jeep & reliability are two different planets here in Oz. I guess reliability of the Grenadier is yet to be established, not too many on the roads or tracks of Western Australia.
nice toy
has anyone successfully manual swapped one of these?
What’s the msrp on this?
Is there any connection to the Defender, or is it purely unashamedly a styling copycat?
It is completely separate. Jim Radcliffe wanted to buy the rights to the old defender and got told no. This is designed by Styer in Austria and made in France.
Shameless copycat.
Another corporate Billionaire do as you likey then …. For his next trick he’ll burn a shed load of fuel going to space when us normal people get forced in to downsized out cars for the 3 miles we do a week ..
Or perhaps he will want to visit the wreck of the Titanic ?…guys with money to burn
@@heinekenhenni I think he bought a football club instead. Most would have settled with a season ticket...
🎉👍👍👍🎉
But why are all forgetting the Land Cruiser 79 Series? Cost less and is definitively more reliable. Just saying.
How can you be a car jurno and not be aware of the Toyota land cruiser 70 series.
Would choose land cruiser 70 any day
Imagine reviewing this vehicle and feeling the need to point out that it doesn’t have rack and pinion steering…
Can take a Euro pallet but not a metric tonne, pity.
I won’t buy it purely because of the steering, it needs rack and pinion.
Are he and Copley not the most boring reviewers and podcasters ever.
Autocar need to understand the difference between written form, audience and general RUclips engagement! Who is telling them they are doing well?!
Using these old school editors/ writers is not getting them views for the RUclips generation sadly - they have been slow to adapt and deserve this fall in market share😢
Do you just get a random off the streets to present this?
Snoooze. I'm amazed at how this team can make any vehicle seem boring. Where's your passion?
This idiot calls it a TRAILMASTER, when it is a TRIALMASTER. My TRIALMASTER has done over 12,000 klm in the Aussie Bush and Desert, extremely capable. That is real testing. Not like some muddy track in Europe.
I like it. Too bad its not available in the states
Why? Our trucks are better.
It will be
It is
@@1FiftyOverland at what? Cruising the mall.
Which states are you referring to? It’s available in the United States of America. There’s actually a dealer where I live in Houston, TX and several other dealers around the country. The Quartermaster is just coming to market, but the Grenadier can be ordered now.
INEOS should focus on getting its existing platform bug free rather than creating a new model. And for God's sake put a speedo on front of the driver.
Glad that JR the Brexiteer made the decision to move production to France. At least Welsh workers and the UK taxpayer won’t have lost out when Ineos Grenadier go bust.
Looks like a gladiator, what a bunch of copycats
If you believe that than the Gladiator is a copycat of the Land Rover 130 pick up
@@peopleschamp7258 The gladiator has been around since the 60s with almost the same design. Land Rover you seem to be talking about is from the 80's ?
@@drdrake240 if we are getting nerdy. LR launched the Series 1 80 with a 2 door pick up option.
@@peopleschamp7258 ok but I wasn't trying to get nerdy lmao
Give a LHD car because the RHD one has a badly compromised footwell.
And yet it isn’t an issue whatsoever if you’re 5ft10 like I am - 22k mls in a year with my rhd
Hear you though
I have no issues with the "dead pedal" on my RHD Grenadier in 5k klms
Nice work again, not sure about the 835kg payload though, surely 1000kg would be more useful 🤷
@@ShaunRoberts1
It’s about insurance rating
14k miles into my ownership, no issue with the 'hump' either, steering geometry needs checking, once done no wander. No issues, no squeeks, no rattles, I love mine. I wouldn't be seen dead in a school run 'Urbanised' Defender.
Not UK made vehicle as was suppose to be.
Jeep gladiator clone
it has one big drawback, het has an bmw engine en they do not last better buy an toyota mercedes g
Or in Gulf states
Toyota use that engine
I fell asleep
Different horses for different courses...🤦🏾♂️🤷♂️
To summarise, it's an expensive heap of nonsense. Nobody is going to choose this over a Hilux... which incidentally, can actually tow actual stuff.
Not with Toyota's new engines. They seem to have lost their way a little.
Too expensive.
Car people should be banned for reviewing off roads vehicles
Wow! This guy can barley string a sentence together, terrible boring review!
