Grenadier Quartermaster

Combining rugged British spirit and design with German engineering rigour, Grenadiers are truly uncompromising 4X4s from the ground up. They are designed, engineered and built to world-class standards for those needing a dependable go-anywhere vehicle with the comfort, safety, refinement and standard features that today’s drivers expect.

INEOS - INEOS is the world’s third largest chemical company. It employs 25,000 people across 39 businesses, with a production network spanning 183 sites in 29 countries.

MODELS - Depending on the market, the Grenadier is available as a five-seat Station Wagon, a Utility Wagon with the choice of a two-seat or five-seat layout, and as a five-seat Quartermaster double cab pick-up. The standard variants of each model are a blank canvas ready to be configured for the exact needs of customers.

BELSTAFF EDITIONS - The Fieldmaster Edition is a Grenadier created specifically for adventurous owners who will use their vehicle to get them and their kit to wherever they want to go. The Trialmaster Edition has been specified with extreme off-roading in mind.

DESIGN - The Grenadier’s exterior design is clear, simple and straightforward - a timeless and instantly recognisable form, dictated by the purpose of the vehicle, with substance informing style. It is boxy to maximise space efficiency. Wheels are positioned at the corners of the chassis to minimise body overhang for better off-road capability. Simple lines are punctuated only by practical features and no superficial styling.

CABIN - The interior of the Grenadier is functional, intuitive and comfortable. Where possible it favours analogue over digital, with clearly labelled and well-spaced buttons and chunky dials on both the Central Control System and its aircraft-inspired overhead control panel.

LADDER FRAME CHASSIS - The backbone of the Grenadier is a full box-section ladder frame chassis. Simple, strong and stable, it’s designed to withstand daily punishment in all conditions. Its steel section is up to 3.5mm thick for outstanding rigidity and stiffness.

SOLID BEAM AXLES - The Grenadier’s heavy-duty solid beam axles are strong, straightforward, and built to last. They were developed in partnership with Carraro, an expert in heavy-duty tractor axles.

TRANSFER CASE - Torque and power are sent to the front and rear axles via an INEOS-designed two-speed transfer case built by industry transmission leader Tremec. The manually-operated two-speed transfer case features a built-in centre differential which is lockable in both high and low range.

OPTIONAL DIFFERENTIAL LOCKS - In addition to the standard centre locking differential in the transfer case, front and rear electronically actuated diff locks are optionally available.

ENGINES - Depending on market availability, the Grenadier is powered by a choice of BMW 3.0-litre turbo-charged inline six-cylinder petrol or diesel engines, which have been extensively revised and recalibrated for this application.

TRANSMISSION - All Grenadiers feature an eight-speed automatic gearbox from industry transmission leader, ZF. Recalibrated and fine-tuned by Magna-Steyr, the gearboxes feature a heavy-duty torque converter specifically for off-road work.

SUSPENSION - The Grenadier is set up to provide dynamic handling and a comfortable ride, whatever the load or road. This is provided by progressive coil springs, robust anti-roll bars, and a sophisticated five-link setup, with a pair of longitudinal links either side of the axle and a Panhard rod.

BRAKES - Developed with Brembo, the Grenadier’s brake system delivers confidence-inspiring performance. The 316 mm vented front discs are gripped by twin piston calipers, and the 305 mm rear solid discs are actuated by single piston calipers.

STEERING - The recirculating ball steering layout features hydraulic assistance and has 3.85 turns between locks for a 13.5-metre kerb-to-kerb turning circle.

UNCOMPROMISED OFF-ROAD ABILITY - Starting with a clean-sheet brief enabled INEOS Automotive’s designers and engineers to create an uncompromising off-roader with a meticulously selected suite of key components. The result is an off-roader that is designed, developed and engineered to deliver exceptional off-road ability straight out of the box.

EVERYDAY TRANSPORT - Whether crossing a continent, tackling a daily commute, or taking a long-anticipated family trip, the combination of high levels of refinement, a spacious and airy cabin, intelligently configured controls, excellent visibility, comfortable Recaro front seats, and phone connectivity makes the Grenadier excellent everyday transport.

PAYLOAD - All Grenadier models offer a braked 3.5-tonne towing capacity, more than 2000 litres of load space and 5.5 tonnes of winching power for recovering themselves or others. Payload on European models ranges from 689kg on a fully optioned diesel Trialmaster Station Wagon to 871kg for a base two-seat petrol Utility Wagon. With a payload of up to 835kg, the Quartermaster pick-up is capable of carrying five people and their bulkiest of loads.

SAFETY - Developed to deliver optimal performance in both on- and off-road environments, all Grenadier models are equipped as standard with a comprehensive suite of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems required for them to meet regulations in their target sales markets.

INFOTAINMENT AND NAVIGATION - A comprehensive suite of infotainment and navigational features includes Android™ Auto and wireless Apple CarPlay® as standard, with Bluetooth connectivity and voice control for hands-free calls. Pathfinder off-road navigation is a bespoke, waypoint-based guidance system.

ACCESSORIES - INEOS Automotive offers a wide range of factory-fit options, and an extensive choice of accessories that were developed in-house alongside the Grenadier to appeal to different customers and markets.

HAMBACH - INEOS Automotive’s Hambach plant is a state-of-the-art 210,000 sqm facility that employs a highly experienced direct workforce of over 1,000. Since acquiring Hambach from Mercedes-Benz in January 2021, INEOS Automotive has invested over €50m in addition to the €470m invested at the site in 2019.

DEVELOPMENT - The Grenadier’s development programme saw 350 world-class engineers subject development and prototype vehicles to a rigorous, global testing schedule, covering 1.1 million miles / 1.8 million kilometres in 15 countries, in all climates and across all terrains.

Developed alongside the multi award-winning Grenadier Station and Utility Wagons, the Quartermaster five-seat double cab pick-up is engineered to deliver the same uncompromised off-road capability, dependability and utility as its stablemates, as well as its modern refinement and comfort.

The largest model in the Grenadier line-up, the Quartermaster is aptly named after the senior military officer responsible for the management of barracks and the supply and distribution of provisions.

In keeping with the focus on off-road performance, the Quartermaster shares its architecture and componentry with the award-winning Station and Utility Wagon models. It’s powered by the same BMW 3.0-litre turbo-charged inline six-cylinder petrol and diesel* engines, that permanently drive all four wheels through an eight-speed ZF automatic transmission, front, centre and rear differential locks, and a two-speed transfer case.

It also rides on the same heavy-duty five-link front and rear suspension, and is fitted with the same Carraro-supplied solid beam axles complemented by powerful Brembo brakes and a recirculating ball steering system.

While the Quartermaster shares the majority of its architecture and components with the rest of the Grenadier line-up, its strong and rigid box-section ladder frame has an extended 3227mm wheelbase - 305mm longer than the Station Wagon and Utility Wagon. This longer chassis creates a large and highly versatile loadbay, with maximum length, width and height of 1564mm, 1619mm and 485mm, making it large enough to carry a standard 1200mm x 800mm Euro pallet with ease.

With a payload of up to 835kg, the same 3,500kg towing capacity as the Station Wagon, and a wide range of accessories available, the Quartermaster is capable of carrying five people and their bulkiest of loads. The vehicle’s everyday cargo-lugging versatility is assured by four tie-down rings in the loadspace, a 400W power take-off, an integrated mounting bar, and a wide 1280mm tailgate that can support up to 225kg when open.

In selected markets, Grenadier Quartermaster is available as a 2-seat double cab. This offers the same towing capacity and large load bay, but swaps the rear bench seat for a flat floor, full-height cargo barrier and 850-litres of dry, internal cargo space. 2-seat Quartermaster is only available in ‘Base’ trim in markets where it is exempt from local taxes applicable to passenger vehicles.

The Quartermaster boasts class-leading off-road ability, unrivalled by any other series production pick-up. Its departure and breakover angles of 22.6° and 26.2°, give it unrivalled off-road ability in its sector, while its 264mm ground clearance, 800mm wading depth and 35.5° approach angle match those of the Station and Utility Wagons.

The model line-up will mirror that of the Station Wagon and is available in standard, Trialmaster and Fieldmaster trim, all of which carry the N1 classification in the EU, and NB1 in Australia. Like all Grenadier models, the Quartermaster will be available with a wide range of tailored accessories for drivers looking to customise it to their specific needs. 

Its cargo bay can be fitted with a robust frame and waterproof canvas canopy, a lockable roller tonneau cover or cross bars, while a roof rack further increases carrying capacity.

The model line-up is divided into a ‘Y’ trim structure, Base then one of two Belstaff-inspired trims- The Grenadier Trialmaster and Fieldmaster Editions have both been curated with specific purposes in mind and are built to take on the outdoors.

The ‘Base’ Grenadier Quartermaster offers as standard:

The Trialmaster Edition has been specified with extreme off-roading in mind. It is named after the iconic Belstaff Trialmaster Jacket, which was created in 1948 at the request of professional Trials biker and Irishman, Sammy Miller. The jacket was designed to cope with the challenging conditions of the Scottish Six Days Trial – a gruelling motorcycle event in which riders compete against the clock over 600 miles (960 km) of Scotland’s most challenging combination of rough moorland, rocky tracks and public roads. With functionality and versatility as its top priorities, the Grenadier Trialmaster Edition is fitted with a host of additional practical kit, including:

The Grenadier Quartermaster in Fieldmaster specification is named after the iconic Belstaff Fieldmaster Jacket, a waxed cotton jacket designed for life in the outdoors. This is a Grenadier created specifically for those owners with an adventure lifestyle who will use their vehicle to get them and their kit to wherever they want to go. It comes with the Smooth Pack set of features as standard, and additional premium enhancements including:

^{*BMW B58 Petrol only in US, Mexico, Canada, China & the Middle East, no diesel offering}

^{**18” Alloy Wheels are standard on Fieldmaster for the US, Mexico & Canda}

^{Also note: Class III 50mm Tow Ball and Electrics are standard on Fieldmaster & Trialmaster in ANZ, China & S Korea}

EXTERIOR - The Grenadier is a modern, functional and highly capable 4X4 vehicle with utility at its core. Form follows function, and capability is the Grenadier’s priority. It is a 4X4 that is designed to be ‘easy-to-read’ with a clear and unambiguous purpose. Starting from a clean sheet, it is there to do what the owner needs without compromise, and nothing is for show. 

The design is all about being clear, simple and straightforward. The result is a timeless and instantly recognisable form, dictated by the purpose of the vehicle, with substance informing style. It is an honest design, evocative of the iconic 4X4s of the past: boxy to maximise space efficiency; wheels positioned at the corners of the chassis to minimise body overhang for improved approach and departure angles for better off-road capability; straightforward, simple lines punctuated only by practical features and no superficial styling.

The beltline along the bodysides is functional with bump strips included as standard, or the optional Utility Belt can be added for attaching a raft of after-market accessories. The roof bars and roof strips enable loads to be mounted and secured directly, without a Roof Rack. And the optional Spare Wheel Lockable Storage Box in the well of the spare wheel on the Station Wagon and Utility Wagon is ideal for stashing away grubby or smelly kit. In short, every element of the Grenadier’s design is determined by its functional role.

INTERIOR - INEOS Automotive has gone back to basics to create an interior that’s functional, intuitive, and comfortable. Where possible, the Grenadier remains analogue and mechanical. Benefiting from both clearly labelled and well-spaced buttons and chunky dials that can be confidently used while wearing gloves, the centrally-located controls offer simple and safe operation for both driver and co-driver.

All driving information is located in one place on the Grenadier’s Central Control System: speed, gear and fuel level, through to tyre pressures, maps, media, phonebook, current bearing, co-ordinates, steering angle, vehicle attitude, and more are all displayed on the easy-to-control 12.3-inch touchscreen. Designed specifically for INEOS Automotive, the Central Control System screen can be operated using either the buttons on the multifunction steering wheel – adjustable for both reach and rake, the rotary controller located on the centre console, the menu buttons on the central control interface and of course through the touchscreen itself.

A unique design and ergonomic feature of the Grenadier is its overhead control panel. Inspired by the layout of controls in aircraft cockpits, this houses all off-road switchgear and functions such as the Off-Road and Wading Modes, the (when optioned) axle differential lock buttons, Downhill Assist, as well as both standard and optional pre-wired auxiliary switches which can be used for options or accessories such as winches or light bars.

The everyday vehicle controls are logically housed on the centre console, and this logical separation of key functions ensures both driver and front passenger select the correct switch or function.

All information is intuitively displayed on the Central Control System’s large 12.3-inch central touchscreen. Removing the typical instrument cluster from behind the steering wheel declutters the dashboard and in doing so provides unimpeded visibility through the front windscreen allowing the driver and co-driver to perceive where the front corners of the vehicle are, crucial not only to off-road driving when you need to accurately drive your line but also in day to day driving from narrow city streets to parking.

Tipping its hat to the INEOS Grenadiers professional cycling team, the Grenadier features a Toot Button – the red circular button on the right-hand arm of the steering wheel – that emits a friendly tone that’s quieter than the regular horn. This can be used to notify cyclists, walkers, horse riders or any other road users of the vehicle’s presence in a friendly, polite way, and to greet fellow Grenadier owners, too. With a similar nod to Sir Ben Ainslie’s INEOS Britannia sailing team, both the overhead control panel and centre stack feature red port and green starboard lines.

The Grenadier is built to get muddy and it can easily be washed down, inside and out. Five interior drain valves mean owners can hose out the floor without concerns of damaging interior materials. An official IP54K rating for critical cabin components – giving them protection from dust and water ingress – ensures the odd splash of mud or water will not damage the switchgear or electronics.

The highly supportive, eight-way manually adjustable Recaro front seats have been specially designed for the Grenadier. Optimised lateral back support keeps the driver and passengers comfortable and secure, while low profile cushion bolsters mean it’s easy to get in and out.

The standard seating upholstery is a combination of hard-wearing tough cloth and vinyl that is stain-, dirt- and water-resistant, and is easy to clean. Supple full-grain leather seats – in black, or in two-tone black-and-grey – are available as an option. Leather front seats are heated as standard, with heated front seats an option for the standard cloth and vinyl Utility Trim.

Safari Windows located above the driver and co-driver come as standard on the Fieldmaster Edition, or as an option on all other variants. Closed, ventilated, or removed completely, these innovative windows allow additional light and fresh air into the cabin. When removed, they can be safely housed in their dedicated storage bag.

Parking sensors, standard at the rear and optional at the front (Base), enhance the Grenadier driver’s urban situational awareness, and simplify manoeuvring in and out of tight spaces. A rear-view camera – included as standard on Belstaff editions, and available depending on market – further aids rear visibility.

All Grenadiers are designed to be confidence-inspiring when off-road. A wheel at each corner ensures short overhangs front and rear, a full box-sectioned ladder-frame chassis offers excellent rigidity, while the engine air intake located high above the front wheel arch provides confidence when wading through water up to 800mm deep.

The foundation of the Grenadier is a full box-section ladder frame chassis. Simple, strong and stable, it’s designed to withstand daily punishment in all conditions, mile after mile. Its steel section is up to 3.5mm thick for outstanding rigidity and stiffness. As the backbone of the vehicle that supports all other assemblies, the Grenadier’s robust chassis is engineered for easy maintenance and to ensure that removing or adding components including accessories like the Side Runners or Rock Sliders is as straightforward as possible. Both Station and Utility Wagons have a 2922mm wheelbase, while Quartermaster features a wheelbase extended by 305mm to 3227mm.

CHASSIS - Maximum protection against corrosion is provided by a full E-Coat treatment (cathodic dip coating, an electro-chemical coating process), internal cavity wax application and an exterior powder coat. Paying testament to the brand’s confidence in its durability, the ladder-frame is backed by INEOS Automotive’s class-leading 12-year anti-perforation warranty.

Heavy-duty solid beam axles are essential for tackling extreme off-road terrain and carrying heavy loads. By channelling power from the Grenadier’s propshafts via a 4:1 differential ratio to the wheels, they ensure maximum traction on any surface. Developed in partnership with Carraro – an expert with over 50 years’ experience making heavy-duty tractor axles for agricultural machinery giants including John Deere and CLAAS – they’re strong, straightforward, and built to last.

INEOS Automotive has designed the Grenadier to handle the most extreme environments, and inevitable impacts. The Grenadier’s standard underride protection includes front and rear skid plates, and protection for the 90-litre fuel tank. It’s key to keeping the vehicle going, ensuring the Grenadier’s essential components are shielded when working off-road. The high-quality powder coat finish also safeguards the Grenadier’s underride protection against stone chips and off-road scrapes. The underride protection is also e-coated before powder coating to deliver a second layer of protection.

DRIVETRAIN - The Grenadier has been set up with off-road capability in mind, but without compromising driving performance, so drivers can switch from tarmac to mud without having to make any special adjustments. It is only offered with permanent four-wheel-drive. Torque and power are sent from the gearbox to the front and rear axles via an INEOS designed two-speed transfer case built by industry transmission leader Tremec, alongside constant-velocity joints and propshafts from automotive specialist Dana Spicer.

The durable, manually-operated two-speed transfer case as standard has a built-in centre differential which is lockable in both high and low range. Designed by INEOS Automotive and manufactured by Tremec, it’s been tested in the harshest environments and its low-range ratio of 2.5:1 provides greater precision, control, and increased torque. Featuring an external oil cooling system, it’s been optimised to ensure smooth running and reliability in all conditions.

In addition to the centre locking differential in the transfer case, two optional electronically actuated diff locks are available, front and rear, with 100% mechanical engagement. The front and rear diff locks can be independently toggled from the overhead control panel and automatically disengage at higher speeds to protect the drivetrain. Manufactured by global engineering specialists Eaton Industries, the front and rear diff locks are standard on Trialmaster models, and optional on all other variants.

AWARD-WINNING BMW POWER - The Grenadier has been developed to be refined on the road and extraordinarily capable off-road. Reliable and gutsy engines and a robust transmission are central to achieving this multi-role capability.

Depending on market availability, Grenadier is powered by a choice of two BMW 3.0-litre turbo-charged inline six-cylinder engines. Both the B57 diesel and B58 petrol powertrains have a proven track record, and they have been deployed in a range of vehicles from sports cars to SUVs. With EU6d and EU4 compliance, both engines meet diesel and petrol emissions standards in all markets. Every Grenadier variant can be powered by either the petrol or the diesel engine, and the selection doesn’t affect the vehicle price (depending on markets).

These two power units from BMW have an aluminium block and head and bring sophistication and refinement to the Grenadier. Over the gruelling three-year 1.1-million mile (1.8-million kilometre) test programme they have been extensively revised and recalibrated by INEOS Automotive’s engineering team in collaboration with Austrian automotive specialists Magna-Steyr.

The goal was to deliver both peak torque at low revs for optimal off-road performance, and powerful acceleration through the rev range on tarmac. This was achieved by the comprehensive reprogramming of the engine software management systems. A larger radiator with upgraded fan enhances the engines’ air temperature performance, with optimised coolant flow within the pipes and radiator.

These carefully calibrated characteristics help the driver to confidently manage the vehicle’s momentum and grip without stressing the engine, ensuring full control and ideal throttle modulation when tackling challenging terrain.

Whichever is chosen, the Grenadier’s engine is paired with an eight-speed automatic gearbox from industry transmission leader, ZF. Both the ZF8HP51 transmission used in petrol variants and the ZF8HP76 gearbox used in diesel-powered models have posted impressive track records for reliability and durability since their market debut in 2008. For their deployment in the Grenadier, Magna-Steyr recalibrated and fine-tuned the gearboxes and added a heavy-duty torque converter specifically for off-road work. While it’s every inch a rugged 4X4, the Grenadier also ticks all the right boxes on the road. The chassis combines a five-link front and rear suspension layout, complemented by powerful Brembo brakes and an accurate recirculating ball steering system.

SUSPENSION - The Grenadier is equally at home on the road as it is off-road. Central to this versatility is its suspension design, featuring progressive coil springs, robust anti-roll bars, and a sophisticated five-link setup, with a pair of longitudinal links either side of the axle and a Panhard rod. Together, these combine to provide dynamic handling and a comfortable ride, whatever the load or road.

The Grenadier’s progressive rate coil springs are made by suspension specialists, Eibach, offering superior flex with nine degrees of front axle articulation and 12 degrees at the rear. Enabling more than 585 mm of travel to maintain grip and make light work of driving over extreme uneven ground, they’re low maintenance, lightweight, durable and generate minimal friction.

BRAKES - The Grenadier’s highly responsive brake system – discs, pads and calipers – has been designed and developed by industry-leaders Brembo. Engineered to deliver confidence-inspiring performance even with the Grenadier’s gross combined fully laden vehicle and maximum trailer weight of seven tonnes, the Brembo system features 316 mm diameter vented front discs gripped by twin piston calipers, and 305 mm diameter rear solid discs and single piston calipers.

The Grenadier rides on traditional, hard-wearing 17-inch steel wheels as standard, with 18-inch steel, 17-inch alloy and 18-inch alloy options available. All use a six-stud pattern with a 130 mm Pitch Circle Diameter (PCD) and are available with both Bridgestone and BFGoodrich tyres.

The Bridgestone tyres are bespoke to the Grenadier – an indication of the confidence the tyre manufacturing giant has in the longevity of the vehicle. Owners can also choose locking wheel nuts to keep the wheels secure.

STEERING - The recirculating ball steering layout features hydraulic assistance. The Station and Utility Wagons have 3.85 turns between locks for a 13.5-metre kerb-to-kerb turning circle, while the Quartermaster with its longer wheelbase has a 14.5-metre kerb-to-kerb turning circle. The result of thousands of miles of development and fine tuning, the steering provides the Grenadier driver with the optimal balance of accuracy, feedback and damping.

At the Grenadier’s core is a full box-section ladder frame chassis that is very stiff, stable and corrosion-resistant. Its smooth and punchy diesel and petrol powerplants are tuned to deliver generous torque at low revs, managed by a quick-shifting eight-speed automatic transmission.

The Grenadier’s robust 5-link front and rear suspension is tuned to deliver excellent levels of axle articulation and wheel travel. Heavy-duty solid beam axles ensure it can tackle extreme off-road terrain and carry heavy loads with ease. 

Its permanent four-wheel drive is complemented by a manually-operated two-speed transfer case with integrated lockable centre differential. Its low-range ratio of 2.5:1 provides greater control when tackling low-speed off-road manoeuvres. Featuring an external oil cooling system, the transfer case is optimised to ensure smooth running and reliability in all conditions.

The standard-fit Bridgestone Dueler AT 001 all-terrain tyres feature a newly upgraded rubber compound and a Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF) all-terrain tread designed specifically for the Grenadier.

The switchable Off-Road Mode disables parking sensors, seatbelt reminders and the engine’s start/stop facility to minimise distraction and lets the driver focus on the road ahead. Selecting the integrated Wading Mode monitors engine temperature and disables the engine fan when safe to do so for optimal wading performance.

Downhill Assist dynamically brakes individual wheels to enhance driver control on extreme descents, while Uphill Assist automatically holds the Grenadier in position after the driver releases the handbrake to provide further safety and control when tackling steeper terrain.

To ensure the driver is fully informed of the Grenadier’s off-road performance, the central touchscreen can display key information, including vehicle attitude, steering angle, system temperatures and drivetrain utilisation.

A commanding driving position, large door mirrors and the instrument cluster on the central touchscreen all contribute to unobstructed sight of both front corners and optimum visibility when driving off-road. This helps with wheel placement – a real benefit not only when tackling demanding terrain, but also during day-to-day driving.

Drivers requiring even greater off-road ability have a range of optional key enhancements available, including additional front and rear differential locks, off-road tyres and a powerful fully-integrated winch.

Standard on Trialmaster models, and available on all other variants, the optional front and rear differential locks are electronically actuated with 100% mechanical engagement. Manufactured by global engineering specialists Eaton Industries, these locks can be independently toggled from the overhead control panel and automatically disengage at higher speeds to protect the drivetrain.

For extreme terrain or challenging conditions, drivers can choose the optional BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 tyres which feature a more aggressive tread. Their deep reinforced sidewalls offer added puncture resistance, and tyre pressure monitoring comes as standard.

The optional factory-fit high-performance front winch from NATO supplier Red Winches is strong, precision-engineered and fully integrated into the front bumper. The winch runs 13 metres of UHMWPE - Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene synthetic rope - and delivers 5.5 tonnes of winching power. The Grenadier is always prepared, whatever the task.

The Grenadier may be a rugged and hugely capable off-road vehicle, but its high levels of refinement, comfort and versatility also make it accommodating and easy to use as both a daily driver and a long-distance traveller.

Key to this refinement is the engineering integrity, solidity and build quality of the chassis. As well as creating the ideal platform for the Grenadier, it has also allowed INEOS Automotive’s ride and handling engineers to dial a higher degree of accuracy into the Grenadier’s multi-link suspension to deliver a more compliant and refined ride quality. The vehicle body is isolated from this strong ladder-frame chassis by eight chassis mounts that have been tuned to reduce body vibrations and noise, and insulate passengers from intrusions in the road.

Both BMW-sourced turbo-charged petrol and diesel* engines are in-line six-cylinder units, an engine layout renowned for smooth and vibration-free performance through the rev range. Similarly, the eight-speed automatic transmission from ZF delivers seamless shifts between gears for smooth progress under all engine speeds and loads.

Whether crossing a continent, tackling a daily commute, or taking a long-anticipated family trip, the combination of a spacious and airy cabin, intelligently configured controls, excellent visibility, comfortable Recaro seats, and phone connectivity makes the Grenadier excellent everyday transport. 

^{*BMW B57 Diesel engine not available in of US, Mexico, Canada, Middle East & China}

The Grenadier’s cabin was designed from scratch to create a highly versatile and accommodating environment that is capable of handling everything from regular commuting to cross-continental adventures. The basic architecture of the cabin combines generous accommodation, hard-wearing materials, plentiful storage space and an intelligently configured dashboard.

INTERIOR - The Grenadier’s cabin features six grab-handles, six cup/bottle holders, and a USB-A and C ports, along with a 12V front socket. Two additional charging USB-C ports in the second row and a second 12V socket in the cargo area (for Station and Utility Wagon models) are optionally available. The central stowage compartment located behind the front cupholders can be fitted with an optional lockable lid for enhanced security.

The Grenadier can be easily washed down, inside and out. Its cabin is designed to be quick and easy to keep clean. A tough barrier in the cargo area prevents water from entering the cabin area. The vehicle floor is completely removable and features five non-return interior drain valves so that owners can hose out the floor without concerns of damaging interior materials.

The rear outer seats feature ISOFIX/iSize child seat anchor points, while the rear bench itself is split 60:40 to accommodate larger loads. There’s also a dry underseat stowage compartment located beneath the rear bench. This dry and tough storage box is ideal for stowing valuable items securely out of sight. This feature is replaced by the Premium Sound System’s Subwoofer in Fieldmaster models, and by the auxiliary battery system in Trialmaster, or when optioned on standard models.

EXTERIOR - The optional utility belts that run along the Grenadier’s flanks further enhance its versatility. Underpinned by a muscular structure housed within the doors to prevent panel deformation, the utility belt on the front door can support up to 45kg of equipment and accessories, while the rear side door has a 35kg payload. Similarly, the lower mounted utility hooks on the front and rear side doors can each respectively handle 5kg and 10kg of equipment.

The Grenadier’s reinforced roof structure gives it exceptional roof loading capabilities. Built-in roof rails and rubber protection strips come as standard and have been designed to allow owners to secure kit directly to the Grenadier’s roof with minimal fuss. For more regular roof loading, owners can specify the Rhino Rack Roof Rack, with a static load of 420kg and a dynamic load limit of 150kg, both measurements including the roof rack weight.

Always looking to maximise functional practicality, INEOS Automotive has flipped the standard-fit spare wheel that’s mounted on the left of load bay. Now facing ‘the wrong way’, the wheel allows what is otherwise dead space inside the hub well to be used as a useful storage area. With a capacity of 20 litres and 15kg, the Spare Wheel Lockable Storage Box is available on all wheel options and provides a handy, secure and accessible place to stow belongings such as mucky boots and a wet jacket.

CARGO AREA – The Quartermaster is underpinned by the same strong and rigid box-section ladder frame chassis, which has been modified to create an extended 3227mm wheelbase - 305mm longer than the Station Wagon and Utility Wagon. This extended chassis creates a large and highly versatile loadbay, with maximum length, width and height of 1564mm, 1619mm and 485mm, making it large enough to carry a standard 1200mm x 800mm Euro pallet with ease.

With a payload of up to 760kg (diesel) and up to 835kg (petrol), the same 3,500kg towing capacity and versatility as the Station and Utility Wagons, and numerous accessories, the Quartermaster is capable of carrying five people and their bulkiest of loads. Four tie-down rings in the loadspace, a 400W power take-off, an integrated mounting bar in the load bay and a wide 1280mm tailgate capable of supporting up to 225kg when open all underline the vehicle’s everyday versatility.

PACKAGING - Offering a braked 3.5-tonne towing capacity, more than 2000 litres of load space and 5.5 tonnes of winching power for recovering themselves or others, the Grenadier is among the class leaders when it comes to payload. Payload ranges from 689kg for a fully optioned diesel Trialmaster Station Wagon, 835kg for the Quartermaster, through to 871kg for a base two-seat petrol Utility Wagon.

Both the two-seat Utility Wagon and Quartermaster can accommodate a standard Euro-pallet that measures 1200 mm x 800. Combine the payload with unprecedented off-road capability and all Grenadiers have the ability to take cargo far off the beaten track.

TOWING - The Grenadier’s 3.5-tonne towing capacity is available with both civilian and commercial towing attachments. Coupled with INEOS Automotive’s bespoke vertical towing interface – which accommodates numerous different towbar and towball fitments including fixed towballs, NATO pintle tow hitches, 50mm jaw and towballs and Class III NAS tow hitches – the Grenadier has serious flexibility and towing ability. To improve safety, handling and driveability, electronic Trailer Stability Assist is also available in certain markets. An optional rear-view camera – included as standard on Belstaff Editions – further aids rear visibility.

^{* Quoted weights are taken from a European specification Grenadier and include 90% of fuel and all liquids, without driver.}

They may be tough and uncompromising 4X4 vehicles, but Grenadiers are equipped with range of modern integrated Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) technologies as standard, all developed to deliver optimal performance in both on-road and off-road environments.  The following are included on all models to help to keep occupants safe, relaxed and in control:

^{*United States, Mexico, Canada & China only}

^{† SOS Emergency Call is included for EU, Saudi Arabia, Oman, UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain}

The Grenadier features a comprehensive suite of infotainment and navigational features that ensure owners stay connected and oriented no matter where they venture. The powerful audio system features four 24W coaxial speakers – two mounted in the front doors, two in the rear doors, with a frequency range of 50 – 18000Hz. Deep bass is enhanced by a subwoofer as part of the Premium Sound System, standard on Fieldmaster models.

DAB+ radio, wireless Android™ Auto and Apple CarPlay® are fitted as standard to handle navigation duties using Waze, Google Maps, or whatever compatible app the driver chooses. Bluetooth connectivity and voice control allow for hands-free calls.

The Grenadier’s Central Control System, designed specifically for INEOS Automotive, displays all required information via an easy-to-control 12.3-inch touchscreen, which can also be accessed using the buttons on the multifunction steering wheel or the rotary controller on the centre console.

This means everything the driver needs to know – including road speed, gear selection and fuel level, through to tyre pressures, maps, media, phonebook, current bearing, co-ordinates, steering angle and vehicle attitude – is intuitively located in one central location.

An optional compass with altimeter is included on Trialmaster and Fieldmaster Editions, conveniently integrated into the centre console.

Off the road, owners can use INEOS Automotive’s Pathfinder navigation system. Fitted as standard to all models, this bespoke, waypoint-based navigation system has been specifically developed for adventures in the Grenadier, and uses GPS signals and co-ordinates to accurately guide drivers.

The Pathfinder navigation system has three modes:

Follow Path – follow an existing .GPX file Drivers can download existing .GPX files (an industry-standard file format with geographic information such as waypoints, tracks, and routes) to the system and then follow these routes in the Grenadier. When the user clicks on the next waypoint, the compass will navigate the driver in the direction required, towards the next waypoint. Distances, bearings and coordinates are shown on the screen to accurately guide drivers along the correct route.

Record Path – record and create a new .GPX file Drivers can use this screen to record the path that they are driving, and create their own .GPX file, so that they can share it with friends or drive the route again. During the journey, the driver can add a waypoint manually, or set up the system to do it automatically at certain intervals.

Roadbook – manually record a route This third mode is mainly used for rallies or general off-road driving. The passenger can compare the Roadbook to a handheld map or route for the planned trip, manually setting the bearing and distance using the functions on the screen.

Power is always on tap with the Grenadier’s cabin featuring a USB-A and a USB-C port, and a 12V socket as standard. Two additional charging USB-C ports in the second row and a second 12V socket in the cargo area are optionally available, as is a powerful 400W power take-off, which turns the Grenadier into a mobile generator to power a range of tools and leisure accessories.

Adaptability is built into the Grenadier from the get-go. With wiring accessible through the engine bay and interior, the Grenadier is ready for ‘plug and play’, without the need to rip out the headlining or interior panels to install gadgets or accessories. This open-source pre-wiring offers all the equipment the driver needs at their fingertips.

As standard, the Grenadier is equipped with three 10A circuits, switchable from the overhead control panel. For heavy duty applications, including light bars and winches, owners can choose the high load auxiliary switch panel option, which provides four extra circuits (three 25A and one 500A), plus four integrated, weather-proof, roof-mounted outlets.

All versions of the Grenadier are uncompromising, highly capable 4X4 vehicles. Even the standard Utility Wagon models offer everything most users will need: peerless off-roading capability, refined on-road driveability, and a functional, modern, comfortable interior. But every customer is unique, so every Grenadier can be customised to suit the specific role they will play for their owner.

As well as the pre-packaged Rough and Smooth options packs, INEOS Automotive offers a wide range of factory-fit options, and an extensive choice of accessories that were developed in-house alongside the Grenadier to appeal to different customers and markets.

These are complemented by aftermarket accessories that are supplied by world-renowned partners that share the same uncompromising built-on-purpose approach as the Grenadier. A number of exterior accessories gives owners all they need to protect and equip their Grenadier for the task at hand, from LED lights to roof-mounted bike carriers. And when off-the-beaten-track is a daily drive, heavy-duty hardware like rock sliders and bull bars provide greater protection, while sand ladders, a comprehensive recovery kit and jerry can mounts on the roof rack give owners the confidence to tackle any terrain.

Up top, owners can opt for a roof rack or cross-bars to make carrying extra kit a breeze. As well as a bike carrier, further compatible add-ons include mounts for kayaks, surfboards and cargo boxes. 

Tailor-made interior accessories provide added flexibility, practicality and durability, and whatever needs transporting, a highly adaptable cargo management range has everything for carrying and organising luggage and equipment quickly, safely, and easily. 

Accessories in the Australian and New Zealand markets will be covered by a five-year warranty, and a three-year warranty for all other markets. The accessories are designed to be fitted easily by owners, or through INEOS’s worldwide aftersales network. Customers can browse the full accessories range in the online configurator and brochure.

The Grenadier spearheads INEOS Automotive’s goal of building vehicles with purpose with real appeal for demanding customers. It draws together a trio of key characteristics valued above all else by typical Grenadier customers: excellent off-road ability, functional good looks, and outstanding reliability.

As well as serving as every day family transport, typical Grenadier customers are expected to come from a wide range of sectors and groups: emergency services, search and rescue services, aid and health agencies, famers and land estate managers, ski and safari operators, equestrian, outdoor pursuits, yachting, off-road and 4X4 enthusiasts, premium lifestylers and customisers. Despite these diverse backgrounds, all are united by their requirement for a durable, reliable and capable vehicle that will take them and their kit wherever they need to go, and then back again.

CUSTOMER SERVICE FOR EVERY STEP - INEOS Automotive’s UK-based customer contact centre is on hand to support those just beginning to learn about the Grenadier, as well as those who need help as they finalise their order. Customers can get in touch by phone, email, and via live webchats.

The English desk is open 24/7. The German-language team is available from 7am to 7pm on weekdays, and 8am-4pm at weekends. Italian, Spanish and French speaking support staff are available between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday. All times are BST.

TOTAL SUPPORT FOR OWNERS - By removing unnecessary complexity, stripping back electronics and providing accessible information, there’s less to go wrong and, if it does, it’s easy to fix. From the full box-section ladder frame to the corrosion-resistant and galvanised body, every component on the Grenadier is engineered for strength and built to last. INEOS has taken the best possible engine, gearbox, axle and transfer case combination for the Grenadier and specifically tuned them to accomplish the task in hand.

SERVICE, PARTS AND MANUALS - Retailers will be the backbone of the service network, providing maintenance, repair and parts. Additional geographical coverage will be provided by hand-picked INEOS-accredited Bosch Car Service and independent 4X4 specialist workshops.

The aim is for most customers to always be within reasonable distance of an authorised service point. ‘Flying Spanner’ technicians from INEOS HQ are on-call if the service network needs additional support. Roadside assistance will also be included as standard with every Grenadier. For all owners, help will never be far away.

INEOS Automotive recommends a regular 12-month servicing interval for the Grenadier, or six-month servicing for continuous tough environments. For owners who want to carry out work on their Grenadier themselves, INEOS will provide online 3D interactive manuals with support from the technical team at INEOS HQ. The vehicle has been deliberately designed and engineered to be easy to work on inside and out.

The INEOS-accredited service network will hold stock of common parts to ensure customers can get back on the road quickly. Any parts that aren’t on the shelf in the network will be dispatched from a 6,000sqm global parts hub in Belgium by courier. Being a ‘vehicle for the world’, we have opened a second distribution centre in Australia, with a third located in the US.

After 1.1 million miles of testing and development, INEOS is exceptionally confident in the Grenadier’s durability and reliability, which is reflected by its comprehensive warranty package:

^{* Five-year, unlimited mileage mechanical warranty for UK, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Middle Eat and Asia. Five-year, 60,000 mile / 100,000 km mechanical warranty for Africa, North America & Mexico}

PRODUCTION FACILITY - INEOS Automotive’s Hambach plant is a state-of-the-art 210,000 sqm facility. It employs a highly experienced direct workforce of 1,000 with an excellent track record for the quality of its output. Its proximity to the German automotive cluster around Stuttgart gives it excellent access to supply chains, automotive talent and sales markets.

Since acquiring Hambach from Mercedes-Benz in January 2021, INEOS Automotive has invested over €50m in addition to the €470m invested at the site in 2019. The Grenadier line includes a new semi-automated paintshop, a new fully-automated bodyshop, and a new quality centre.

Across 2021/22, INEOS Automotive produced over 65,500 smart cars and almost 128,000 EQA front-end modules under contract to Mercedes-Benz. INEOS Automotive has installed all-new IT and supply chain systems for production planning, logistics and parts quality monitoring, meaning the Grenadier operation is benefiting from the latest technology and is completely independent of the smart car assembly line.

Hundreds of Grenadier production prototypes were built at Hambach and deployed for final test rounds including crash testing for certification and to validate the assembly process and build quality. The Hambach workforce underwent 20,000 hours of training in preparation for the start of series production in mid-October 2022.

DEVELOPMENT - The Grenadier’s development programme saw 130 ‘2B’ second-generation engineering prototype vehicles undertake a rigorous, global testing schedule. INEOS Automotive selected the best suppliers from the automotive industry and subjected their components through an arduous testing regime of 1.1 million miles / 1.8 million kilometres across 15 different countries, in all climates and across all terrains. The Grenadier is developed to last and engineered to keep going, year after year, and is backed up with a class-leading five-year, unlimited mileage mechanical warranty for UK, European, Australian, New Zealand, Middle East and Asian markets, and a five-year, 60,000 mile / 100,000 km mechanical warranty for African, North American and Mexican markets.

Transitioning from concept to series development marked the moment the INEOS Grenadier team was joined by experts from the 4X4 specialists Magna Steyr and AVL, the world’s largest independent company for the development, simulation and testing of powertrain systems.

Both these automotive powerhouses are based in Graz, Austria and their development teams drew on decades of experience to put the Grenadier through a gruelling development programme.

The Grenadier’s testing programme took in some of the most extreme environments. For example, off-road development locations included one of the most formidable 4X4 testing grounds in the world – the notorious trails of the Schöckl mountain north of Graz.

Engineers also successfully completed extensive cold weather engine calibration with Grenadier prototypes in northern Sweden, vehicle dynamic development in Hungary, and hot weather testing in Morocco and the Middle East.  In total, around 350 engineers from INEOS Automotive, Magna Steyr and AVL were involved in the Grenadier’s development programme.
