The Ineos Grenadier draws undeniable inspiration from the iconic Land Rover Defender, and it's hardly surprising that the UK-based tuner Chelsea Truck Company is already gearing up to offer a range of enhancements for it. With promises of forthcoming "dramatically-styled conversion packages," the tuner is poised to elevate the Grenadier's appeal even further.
Already, the company has showcased its expertise on at least three Grenadier examples, introducing subtle yet impactful upgrades to both the exterior and interior. Among these, the standout is the Ineos Grenadier Station Wagon, resplendent in its original Sela Green hue.
Emphasizing the Grenadier's rugged nature, Chelsea Truck Company has outfitted the SUV with 20-inch Mondial RS Forged alloy wheels wrapped in 35-inch tires, ensuring its off-road prowess remains intact. Additional exterior modifications include a gloss black spare wheel cover and slightly modified wheel arches to accommodate larger tires. Notably, other Grenadier builds have sported a Dakar-inspired front grille and widened fender extensions for added visual flair.
While comprehensive styling kits are in the pipeline, the current highlight of Chelsea Truck Company's Grenadier offerings lies within the reimagined interior. Recaro seats, originally fitted from the factory, undergo a transformation with sumptuous tan leather upholstery featuring a striking three-dimensional perforated pattern, elevating the cabin's ambiance to newfound levels of luxury.
Afzal Kahn, CEO of Kahn Group, expressed excitement about the Grenadier project, emphasizing the fusion of off-road performance and timeless design. Anticipating the release of an array of new products, ranging from standalone exterior enhancements to full-scale conversion packages, Kahn hinted at imminent updates to come.
One particularly noteworthy Grenadier variant, clad in the signature Sela Green and powered by a stock BMW-sourced 3.0-liter six-cylinder diesel engine, has already been sold for £73,999. Despite its impressive upgrades, this pricing remains surprisingly accessible, especially when compared to the UK base price of £76,000 for a standard five-seater Ineos Grenadier Station Wagon.
Furthermore, keen-eyed shoppers browsing through the Chelsea Truck Company's inventory may stumble upon an even more budget-friendly Grenadier priced at £51,999. This variant, a sleek black two-seater LCV model, maintains its stock upholstery while sporting a different set of 20-inch wheels, offering enthusiasts an enticing entry point into the world of customized Grenadiers.
