It would be a brave chap to choose rescue yellow!

For that it will have to go upmarket quite a lot. Dual zone ac and heated steering wheel with illuminated sun visor mirrors for starters

Also 8 cup holders, front and rear, each capable of holding a litre of fluid.

Modern diesels makes zero sense in NA.

Two modern diesels in a row, here. MB Sprinter 2015 & 2021, 3.0L V6 turbo diesel. I am nothing but very pleased with them.

 

[Shopkeep]

Yeah, nah.

Looks like a Tank 300 - blah.

A mate of mine said something funny today.

He thought they should have called it the Grenadier Sport.
That would have really gotten up Land Rover’s nose.

Not saying you can’t be happy with them, but I come from mechanical diesels and VW ALH. Any diesel advantage was sucked right down the emissions holes of modern diesels.

Thinking it is the Disneyification of Ineos

It reminds me very much to a Suzuki. - The topic of electric and offroading and in particular overlanding? Seriously no. Lots of people now looking at it . It reminds me very much to a new G.. perhaps cheaper than a Merc. If somebody considers this vehicle - the question is for what purpose.
we do not need to discuss on features,
amenities or offroad capability.. if the range is 200-300kms. And in off road / high payload likely less than that.

I can’t help but think it’s one of these but for adults.



Bring it on though!

If we’re collectively going to invite these ludicrously heavy, expensive and (in Australia) coal-powered BEVs made from unobtainium on supply chains we don’t control onto our streets then let’s have something that doesn’t come from an overhyped Californian dream factory or China or both. Vive la différence etc.

Very interested to know more about the engineering that’s in it.

My recurring point about Tasmania not really being part of Australia is reinforced

KIng Mountbatten-Windsor is losing his hold, and the further the territory , the weaker the grasp!
Anyway , I wonder what battery technology will be used in the Fuse.

Commonwealth of Australia that is…

This sort of thing might be great down your way. Rolling silently through the forest around Mt Field or similar would be magic.

The Lake Dobson road to the Tarn Shelf will rattle the falsies out and loosen all the terminals.
Mind you my wife's Volvo ev made it up there last year.

I suppose originally and now Fusiliers are used to avoid igniting things. Back then, it was of artillery powder by soldiers, who were given flintlocks instead of more dangerous matchlocks. Now it is though the Fusilier trucks not using gasoline or diesel fuel.

Maybe the Fusilier is, along with the Grenadier, part of a large series of vehicles with the theme of a 18th century British soldiers. There could be vehicles called "Guard", "Ranger", "Dragoon", "Lancer" and "Hussar". Heck, the last three could be motorcycles! I don't know how they would accommodate Battalion or Light Companies into unique vehicle names but perhaps the marketing folks are working this out.

Perhaps Sir Jim has a Napoleonic War diorama in his country house and we’re just working left to right.
