INEOS owner Jim Ratcliffe once tried to buy the rights to keep building the original Land Rover Defender. JLR didn't approve the deal, so INEOS went ahead with an alternate-reality version called the Grenadier.
This week, a court dismissed JLR's appeal of the U.K. Intellectual Property Office's decision that not everyone knows or cares what the original Defender looked like.
Turns out, Land Rover never trademarked the Defender's shape, which gives INEOS the legal window it needs to bring the new 4x4 to life.
