The INEOS Grenadier is a disruptor in the SUV market, created by the world's third largest chemical company to fill a gap in the market for a reliable, rugged and simple SUV. Designed for farmers, adventurers and anyone who needs a work vehicle, the Grenadier combines rugged British spirit with German engineering for uncompromising off-road performance. It's a boxy vehicle that maximizes interior space, has a manually adjustable two-speed transmission and has two electronically activated heavy-duty differential locks.

The INEOS Grenadier is designed for people who run farms, drive across the African plains and spend nights like Overlanders in the wilderness. It's not for posh city driving or parking outside organic food shops in the Cotswolds. The vehicle is built with fitness for purpose in mind, with words such as "faithful" and "reliable" often appearing in its design.

Grenadier it has an old ladder frame chassis under the hood, coilover suspension and axles. It is available in two powertrain variants, both sourced from BMW: a 3.0-liter turbo petrol engine with 283 horsepower and 450 Nm (332 lb-ft) of torque and a common rail direct injection turbodiesel engine with 248 horsepower and 550 Nm (405 lb-ft) of torque. The Grenadier also features a manually adjustable two-speed transfer case and two electronically activated heavy-duty differential locks.

Grenadier it's designed for off-road driving, and its exterior features reflect that intent. External lighting allows the installation of auxiliary lighting, which is also optional utility slat with a universal door attachment system.

The Grenadier is extremely well designed and does exactly what it sets out to do: go places most cars can't without falling apart, and do it with some imagination and a dose of British flair. It's a reliable and robust SUV that's built to last and is more successful on the road than its rivals and almost as good as the Mercedes G-Wagen, the vehicle from the company that invented this type of car. It's just that it's much cheaper.

INEOS Grenadier price? Jump into the configurator!

And speaking of prices. These start at just over 55,000 euros, but for a well-equipped one, you will pay around 70,000 euros. It is also pleasing that you can buy a car with N1 truck classification - and thus the possibility of deducting value added tax in most European countries. This also proves that this car is a workhorse and not a city lipstick. You can build your own in this configurator.
