Ineos has launched a new two-seat utility version of the Grenadier that qualifies for VAT reclamation in the UK.
The Grenadier Commercial features a full-length flat floor with a floor-to-roof cargo barrier behind the two front seats, and can carry a standard 1,200mm x 800mm Euro pallet.
Aimed at those who need an all-wheel-drive vehicle for professional use, the Grenadier Commercial has a braked 3.5-tonne towing capacity, more than 2,000 litres of load space and 5.5 tonnes of winching power for recovering itself or other vehicles.
George Ratcliffe, commercial director of Ineos Automotive, said: “Customers in the UK have been asking for this addition to our model line-up since we launched in 2022, so we’re pleased to make this available so quickly. The versatility of the Grenadier platform allows this level of modification without any compromise to the driving dynamics or off-road capabilities.”
The Grenadier is a full box-section ladder frame chassis, with heavy-duty solid beam axles, a two-speed transfer case and up to three locking differentials. It is powered by a BMW 3.0-litre turbo-charged inline six-cylinder petrol or diesel engine.
Prices for the Grenadier Commercial will start at £51,931 (excluding VAT), with orders opening on 2 May 2024.
