Vehicle model
Ineos Grenadier
The Grenadier is Ineos Automotive's first model and the heart of its range: a rugged, utility-style 4x4, unveiled in 2020 and series-produced since October 2022 in Hambach (France), with first deliveries in December 2022. Offered as a Station Wagon (five seats) and a Utility Wagon (two seats, more work-focused), it is aimed at serious off-road enthusiasts, professionals and adventurers looking for a durable, off-road-capable vehicle, deliberately abandoning on-road refinement in favor of ruggedness. Its ladder-frame design and rigid axles give it excellent obstacle-clearance abilities. In Quebec, this large off-road-oriented vehicle benefits greatly from mountain-snowflake-certified winter tires; the original 17- and 18-inch sizes in BFGoodrich KO2, close to 32 inches, remain widespread and easy to replace.

Tires and wheels
Tire and wheel compatibility
Le Grenadier privilégie des dimensions tout-terrain courantes et faciles à trouver. En première monte, on retrouve généralement des jantes de 17 ou 18 pouces chaussées de pneus BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2, en formats robustes proches de 32 pouces de diamètre (par exemple en 17 pouces ou 18 pouces selon la finition). Le format 17 pouces, monté sur le Quartermaster, est volontairement répandu mondialement pour faciliter le remplacement. Au Québec, des pneus d'hiver dédiés sont essentiels sur ces véhicules lourds : privilégier des pneus hiver ou all-terrain certifiés montagne-flocon. Pour les dimensions, jantes et entraxe exacts, validez toujours selon l'année, la finition et la fiche du véhicule.
