See I disagree- all of those extremely capable offroad vehicles are in the same market.Did some shopping with spouse today. Noticed 2 ND and a G500 perhaps registered last month.. all on large rims, low tyres for on road use. All life style luxury vehicles. I think the ND will indeed establish itself close to G but cheaper. Currently G wagon are difficult to get despite high price. Mercedes GLS is rather a cruiser and close to RR customers.
So I do not think ND and Grenadier compete the same market. BTW there was also one black long classic Defender. very well maintained.. Roof rack and lots of stickers.. Iceland, Scandinavia, That one has seen a bit...
The difference is they offer similar off-road capabilities (before the bling attack by owners) with much more refined SUV characteristics but suffer for what grenandier purchasers are looking for because of that.
If I was in the car manufacturing business I would produce those other vehicles and sell more and make a lot more money as a result.
I’m just glad Sir Jim went the way he did.
