12:35 - Ineos Grenadier Design Reveal
Built from the ground up on an all-new platform, the INEOS Grenadier has been designed on purpose: namely to meet the demands of its future owners for a rugged, capable and comfortable go-anywhere working vehicle.
The Grenadier is a body-on-frame SUV with coil-sprung live axles front and rear. Two engines will initially be available, both BMW-sourced 3.0-liter turbocharged straight-sixes, one that burns diesel and one that burns gas. The engines drive all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission and a two-speed transfer case.
“The brief was simple. We set out to design a modern, functional and highly capable 4x4 vehicle with utility at its core”, said Toby Ecuyer, Head of Design. “A design that is ‘easy-to-read’, with no ambiguity about the Grenadier’s role in life. There to do everything you need, and nothing you don’t. Nothing is for show. Modern engineering and production techniques ensure the Grenadier is highly capable, but we have been able to stay true to the essence of creating a utilitarian vehicle that will stand the test of time”.
Dirk Heilmann, INEOS Automotive’s CEO, said: “We are delighted to be able to share the design of the Grenadier so early in the process. Most manufacturers would hold back, but we are a new business, building a new brand, and we want to take people with us on this exciting journey.

I would have a serious look at it if it was going to be built in the uk but the press say that they have put the factory in Bridgend on hold while they look at building it on land that Mercedes own.
It can be made in in the UK and that leaves 194 countries that can import the vehicle. Or it can be made in Hambach France where Daimler has a 'turn key' ready to go factory. Ineos has also suspended development of a chassis factory in Portugal, I assume pending discussions about Hambach. So if the Grenadier is finally assembled in the UK or France, it doesn't make any difference to the global market where there is 194 countries as a potential importer. With the majority of components sourced from the European continent just imagine the cost savings on parts freight alone. It's simple economics and Ineos will make a business decision. You would have to think that an agreement will be reached for the Hambach site. Ineos needs a factory, Daimler has one they don't need.
Should have been built in UK as promised !!
Ever considered a Normal Cab Long Bed model similar to Land Cruiser 79?
Where will it be built?. Wales Or France
All very well & good saying do we want to see more of it, yes of course but more of the engine in it would be nice as I've heard all sort's about this BMW unit and would like to know how they've come about aledgedly choosing that over all others.
Reduced electronics, post Pandemic modesty, a stealthy luxurious interior all designed and scrutinized under the most merciless of Teutonic sliderule it is most definitely a Range Rover Killer.
Apart from its absolutely stuffed with electronics, the bmw engine has a very advanced DME, the gearbox has its own ecu and it also likely will have the bmw I drive system.
Will it have lockers
better than new defender......
Grenadier: a fish in French. The Ineos Fish.
So able to cross a deep river, best 4x4 today if produced, certainly
Legionnaire made in France 🤣🤣🤣
Nothing new on this car mix between a UAZ and a Defender..........but 3 times the price I suspect......
I agree. Looks high quality but it will be expensive and nothing new on design. Like you said, defender and UAZ mix.
The land rover lawyers are scrambling. There must be some way we can sue them!!!
Land Rover thrown away the real gem and brought some useless shit. Someone has picked it up and now going to sell it. Land Rover think like oh what have we done.
Shame that the design is slightly eastern european
Amazing vehicle, would absolutely buy one but these people are playing a game where the first person to say "Land rover defender" is a rotten egg...
Already out of date,........ dear oh dear
The only way to build a 4x4,.... outdated thinking outdated engineering. The ladder frame is not as tough as an exoskeleton or unibody. Look at APC carriers or tanks for that matter.
😂😂
