Ineos Grenadier - An $80K G-Wagon/Defender?

Been seeing a lot of Ineos Grenadiers on car carriers coming out of the port here in SoCal. Never really looked into what they were until Throttle House put out a video today.

Starting at around $71k USD, a relatively interesting vehicle: a more serious version of the Land Rover Defender, with less of the "I drive a G-Wagon" stigma. Not to mention it's got options for ridiculous stuff like a safari-style sunroof, and a bunch of roof switches like a passenger aircraft.

Oh, and my favorite thing: it's a British-designed vehicle, with a German/BMW B58 (de-tuned) with a ZF 8 Speed and a BMW shifter, assembled in France. By a company that predominantly operates in the chemical/bio/pharma world.

Rusnak (a big BMW/Porsche/Land Rover dealer family near me in SoCal) also has a standalone "Ineos Grenadier" dealership in LA.
