INEOS Automotive – Grenadier – Built On Purpose
Story so far
Since Sir Jim Ratcliffe announced Project Grenadier in 2017, our team at INEOS Automotive has grown rapidly. From a start-up to the scaled business we are now, we’ve hit some huge milestones along the way. Despite some global challenges, we brought our first vehicle, the INEOS Grenadier, from a vision to prototype and to market in just five years. And now, we look to the future with our first all-electric vehicle, the Fusilier.
Our Americas team have hit some huge milestones over the last few months, commencing customer deliveries of our Grenadier in the USA. We are excited to be expanding Americas region again, launching the Grenadier in Mexico and Latin America later in 2024, to enable us to make the vision a reality we are hiring our inaugural team for the region.
