British businessman Jim Ratcliffe was furious that Land Rover stopped producing the classic Defender, and with an investment of about a billion dollars, he created a replacement for it. In 1998, Ratcliffe founded the petrochemical concern Ineos, whose value today is estimated at about 16.5 billion dollars.
He is one of the owners of the Mercedes Formula 1 team, Manchester United football club, America's Cup yachts, bicycle racing teams, and other pastimes of the rich. We liked the great cabin, engines, quality of materials, and durability. We didn't like it quiet and luxurious enough, fuel consumption. We scored the new Toyota Highlander at 9.5/10, with a top speed of 155mph. We are happy to share the test results with you.

LED lighting gives a modern touch, the bumpers are softly rounded. The front grill is a bit ornate for my taste, but it's really not bad. The Grenadier is offered in an elongated station wagon version like the blue test car; some versions do not have rear seats for UK tax benefits. Those who really need to do some work will order the elongated Quartermaster van, its front part is almost identical to the test vehicle. The van costs 15,000 shekels, about NIS 150 thousand more than the new Land Cruiser 250. But you may find solace in the fact that the Grenadier costs only half as much as the equivalent Mercedes G. SUV. The test vehicle will cost you about 85,000 euros before extras - this is very close to the price of a hybrid Defender, which costs about 685,000shekels in Israel.
