Thousands, maybe tens of thousands, of Australians would love this vehicle.
This is the audience Grenadier needs to win over.
Toyota 70 series & Nissan Patrol drivers.

Specially the AU version with the bull bar, but unfortunately that one doesn't seem to come to Europe.

Apart from snakes and sharks , it's pretty safe. As for the former , I've never been overly concerned alarmed.
But you can blame American TV for hyping up the actual risks/threats.
As always the biggest danger is humans in vehicles , and tourists who underestimate the risks of underprepared wilderness travel.

We really do need to do a tourism campaign to counter the notion that you're very likely to die or get eaten downunder. I'd rather have a cuddly Koala tearing at my tent then a qtr tonne of grizzly. 😉
This is why we shoot the kangaroos though.

It's the 4.2m crocs you don't want in your tent. :oops:
This was a non-fatal attack at Princess Charlotte Bay on the Cape York Peninsula in 2004.
View discretion advised if you're a bit squeamish.

About 14 mins in, the hairs start to stand up on the back of your neck. The women who jumped on the croc was nicknamed 'Granny Dundee'.
