Ineos unveils 4 Grenadier prototypes: high off-road capability and unconventional solutions

At the Goodwood Festival of Speed, Ineos introduced four Grenadier prototypes, demonstrating just how far this model's potential can go. The company isn't just testing ideas — it is making it clear that the Grenadier is built for the toughest tasks. And judging by the variants presented, the future of this model is more than promising.

Grenadier by LeTech

German atelier LeTech, known for upgrading the Mercedes G-Class, has now turned its attention to the Grenadier. The result is a version with portal axles, increasing the ground clearance to 514 mm (250 mm more than standard). The wading depth has increased from 800 mm to 1050 mm, and the off-road tires and lighting bar on the roof complete the image of an SUV ready for any challenge. If there is a vehicle undaunted by obstacles, it is definitely this one.

Compact Shortermaster pickup by Ineos engineers

Ineos engineers in France have created a shortened version of the Quartermaster pickup, unofficially named Shortermaster. Unlike the production Quartermaster, it does not have an extended wheelbase but does feature a double cab with increased cargo space. An ideal option for those who need agility without sacrificing functionality.

Station Wagon with V8 by Magna

Were you expecting a biturbo inline-six from BMW under the hood? Instead, Magna interns installed a naturally aspirated 6.2-liter V8 from GM producing 425 hp and 625 Nm of torque in the Grenadier. Considerable modification of mounts, electronics, and cooling systems was required, but the result is worth it. Now the question is: when will such a version hit the market?

Rally Grenadier by Buzz Special Vehicles

British company Buzz Special Vehicles has prepared the Grenadier for participation in the 2025 World Rally-Raid Championship. The vehicle has received an enhanced 3.0-liter engine (349 hp, 550 Nm), sports suspension, and a lightweight interior with a safety cage and carbon panels. If the Grenadier proves itself in races, it will be a testament to its reliability.
