Grenadier vs New Defender

And the Defender won the 2026 Dakar!

Although only 7 entries; 3 Defenders, 2 Nissan's and 2 Toyota's of which the Defenders were the only ones factory backed.

Shallow victory, but it will be publicised like it was up against stiff competition & that it was their first attempt compared to seasoned competition, so must be even more amazing. Probably miss out the lack of competition in their category and show images of various others to confuse.

You would think it was an advertising stunt to get people buying the high profit Octa version

That's basically it. And the OCTA is a BMW build isn't it ?

What was more interesting to me is that this was the first time Land Rover have ever participated in the Dakar. Ever.

Unlike my ‘95 D90, which I will never sell.
