Copy of INEOS Grenadier Quartermaster 3 000 km of Kruger Corrugations Tested

A Workhorse With Manners

From Joburg to Crooks Corner, the INEOS Grenadier Quartermaster carried me through every kind of surface tar, sand, mud, and bone shaking gravel without flinching. The straight-six petrol engine purred smooth and strong; doors closed with that satisfying vault “thunk.”

On long days it felt less like driving and more like captaining a ship through the bush steady, solid, and calm. After a couple of weeks, 3 000 km, and a few baboon proof tests, nothing squeaked, nothing loosened. It simply shrugged Africa off.

Why It Worked

• Ladder-frame toughness but surprisingly refined suspension

• Quiet cabin for watching lions mate meters away without revving

• Plenty of space for camera gear and Bal-Sak duffel

• Built-in confidence when elephants block the road

Which rig would you trust for a month in Kruger?

• INEOS Grenadier
• Toyota Land Cruiser
• Land Rover Defender
• Jeep Rubicon
