Nice, I think there's far more to learn in these type of videos.

More illuminated switches.

Centre screen showing centre diff locked but no torque info?

That centre display looks really good and was very responsive.
Showed also that when you put it in manual it stays in the gear you selected.
Lot's of auto's would have runaway on those steep downhill slopes and changed up a few gears

This bit is impressive. He stops at the bottom of a fairly steep dirt hill and just drives slowly up it.

I watched this video several times yesterday. The instructor is pretty good and explains how to handle torque and throttle control and gives pretty good advice on handling in general.

I did the google translate to english on it.
I understood more listening to the german than reading the english

I was myself at the same event and the instructor. The instructor comes from Graz and is instructor at the G Class Experience Center. A statement on his part was "The Greandier is the G-Class 2.0, everything that can be improved in the G-Class was implemented in the Grenadier!"

Didn't think an auto would upshift above the gear selected.

Many auto's do to protect the gearbox.
When mine is in sport mode it doesn't but when in economy it does.
They all change back to first when you stop

mine in manual mode wont shift up automatically but will shift down if gear selected is eventually too high for the speed/revs.

I also cannot select in manual a too high gear for instance going M2 to M6 if it cannot carry the gear because of speed/revs

I think this is the single most reassuring comment I’ve heard about the Grenadier so far.

Excellent, this will be my car after all
