Ineos Grenadier: payload, towing and specs

14 variants in our database, from $104,000 to $122,000 list.

The Ineos Grenadier is a two- and five-seat wagon, from $104,000 to $122,000 list, rated to tow up to 3,500kg. It offers a six-cylinder, which is a rarity in a class of fours. Readers weighing it up usually also look at the Land Rover Defender 90, Land Rover Defender 110 and Lexus GX 550. Ineos is a newcomer to vehicle building, and the Grenadier uses BMW-sourced engines.

What each variant can actually carry

Worked out for a typical touring load: two people, 150kg of gear and 150kg of accessories. “Spare payload” is what is left after that. “Max trailer” is the heaviest trailer that load still allows, which is usually well under the headline towing rating because GCM and towball weight both take their cut.

What’s left to carry as the trailer gets heavier

For the Station Wagon Fieldmaster Diesel. Payload left for people, gear and accessories once the towball has taken its 10 per cent of the trailer’s ATM.

GVM is the binding limit the whole way to this vehicle’s towing rating, so payload falls only by the weight on the towball.

Fuel and touring range

The official ADR 81/02 figure is measured unladen, at low speed, on smooth tarmac. We lift consumption by 40 per cent to allow for the weight, the all-terrains, the bar and the dirt, then divide what is usable in the tank by that — leaving 5 litres in it, because planning to run a tank dry is how you end up walking. Where we have measured a vehicle ourselves we use our own figure instead. A plug-in hybrid’s claim assumes a full battery, which is gone within the first hour of a long drive, so it gets multiplied by five rather than 1.4.

Can it clear the gaps?

Against the longest stretch between fuel on each leg, using the Station Wagon Fieldmaster Diesel’s touring range of 578km — which already allows for a loaded 4WD and leaves 5 litres in the tank. Carrying fuel changes everything below; so does a headwind, soft sand and a heavy right foot.
