    Le prototype Grenadier d’INEOS rencontre ses sources d’inspiration au Concours d’Élégance de Hampton Court à Londres Le tout nouveau Grenadier interrompt son Tour de France pour venir saluer certains de ses prédécesseurs, dont le tout premier modèle Land Rover. Londres, 4 septembre 2020 - Le premier prototype Grenadier d’INEOS participera au Concours d’Élégance qui se tiens au château de Hampton Court à Londres du 4 au 6 septembre, aux côtés de la collection de véhicules tout-terrain légendaires d’INEOS Automotive. A l’occasion de ce concours, INEOS Automotive présentera plusieurs 4x4 historiques, notamment le tout premier modèle Land Rover produit en série (immatriculé JUE 477), qui a récemment fait l’objet d’une restauration complète. Seront également exposés une Toyota FJ40 entièrement restaurée (1980), une Jeep Willys (1944) utilisée par la Marine américaine lors de la Seconde Guerre Mondiale et une Mercedes-Benz Classe G de collection (1988). « Au début du projet Grenadier, nous avons fait venir en studio certains des 4x4 les plus exceptionnels de l’histoire pour identifier ce qui les a rendus si immuables, explique Toby Ecuyer, Directeur Design chez INEOS Automotive. Et aujourd’hui, le Grenadier se trouve aux côtés de ces légendes. On remarque des similarités en termes de conception et de proportions, et bien évidemment quant à leur finalité. Je pense que le Grenadier trouve naturellement sa place parmi ces 4x4 emblématiques, et si d’autres partagent mon avis, alors nous avons atteint notre objectif. » « Nous avons eu des retours très positifs suite à la récente présentation du nouveau Grenadier.

    UNDER EMBARGO UNTIL 01/28/2020, 8 PM EASTERN GENESIS GV80 SUV DEBUTS IN NORTH AMERICA • GV80 is the first SUV for the Genesis brand, based on rear-wheel-drive architecture unique to Genesis • Introduces world-first innovations in vehicle quietness, suspension tuning, ADAS and in-car connectivity • Available with a choice of 2.5-liter or 3.5-liter turbocharged engines MIAMI, Fla., January 28, 2020 — Today, the Genesis GV80 sport-utility vehicle debuted in North America for the first time, at a media reveal event held in Miami, Fla. GV80, the first SUV from Genesis, introduces a variety of firsts for the Genesis brand, including responsive electronic control suspension, active road noise cancellation, and an active motion driver’s seat. “GV80 is our proof of concept that we infuse the spirit of youth and wonder into everything we do,” said Mark Del Rosso, CEO, Genesis Motor North America. “We developed GV80 by looking inward and asking ourselves how Genesis brand DNA could differentiate our very first SUV. I’m overwhelmed by the bench strength at Genesis and what the design, engineering and development teams have accomplished with the GV80.” The North American event follows a global event held in Seoul, South Korea, earlier in January 2020. “Two weeks ago, we revealed GV80 to the world in our home of Seoul, South Korea, and the response was overwhelming,” said William Lee, Executive Vice President and Global Head of the Genesis Brand. "In a few short hours, we received thousands of pre-orders from customers, and this level of enthusiasm is proof to us that we're on the right track.” The “V” in the GV80 marque represents versatility that only a Genesis SUV can offer.

  • Carraro Will Be on Board the New Off-Road Grenadier Agreement Signed for Over 420 Million Euros with INEOS Automotive
    Press Release Important growth perspectives in the automotive sector Carraro will be on board the new off-road Grenadier Agreement signed for over 420 million Euros with INEOS Automotive Campodarsego (Padua), 4 December 2019 – New important step on the road to growth for Carraro Group. A strategic supply agreement with INEOS Automotive was signed in the past few hours. This relationship, with a total value of more than 420 million Euros with a time horizon of over 10 years, consists in the supply by Carraro of front and rear axles for the new off-road 4x4 vehicle “Grenadier” of INEOS Automotive, which will enter the market in 2021. Thanks to this agreement, Carraro Group will have the opportunity to significantly increase the volumes of its special axles for commercial vehicles, minivans and off-road vehicles. At the same time this expansion of activities within the automotive sector, that has always been very challenging, will allow Carraro to increase its skills by further improving in terms of quality, time to market and logistic efficiency. This will also have positive impacts in the Group's traditional areas, such as agricultural equipment and earthmoving machinery. "This important agreement with INEOS highlights our will to develop the Group's off-highway automotive sector. – commented Enrico Carraro, Chairman of the Group – Being on board the Grenadier project also means for us to expand the product offer in a complementary way towards a sector with great potential for future developments”. “The appointment of Carraro Group reinforces our commitment to bring together the world’s best suppliers, creating the ultimate utilitarian off-roader.

  • Ausgabe 21. 2021 Ineos Stellt Sich Der Herausforderung
    AUSGABE 21. 2021 INEOS STELLT SICH DER HERAUSFORDERUNG 2020 mag ein Jahr für die Geschichtsbücher sein, doch die Herausforderungen sind noch nicht vorbei. Die Welt versucht immer noch, sich aus dieser Pandemie herauszukämpfen – und INEOS verpflichtet sich weiterhin einen entsprechenden Teil dazu beizutragen. In dieser Ausgabe von INCH blicken wir zurück auf die wichtige Entscheidung von INEOS im vergangenen Jahr, die eigenen Beschäftigten zu schützen und gleichzeitig die Produktion der wichtigen Chemikalien aufrechtzuerhalten, die zur Bekämpfung von COVID-19 benötigt werden. Wir freuen uns auf all das, was wir tun können, trotz aller aktuellen Schwierigkeiten. Das sind inspirierende Projekte. Im Januar 2021 spendete INEOS 100 Millionen Pfund, um ein neues Institut in Großbritannien zu finanzieren, das dabei helfen soll, eine der größten Herausforderungen im Gesundheitswesen der Welt zu bekämpfen – die Antibiotikaresistenz. Im Hafen von Antwerpen hat sich INEOS verpflichtet, die von der EU gesetzten Ziele zur Reduzierung der Treibhausgasemissionen zu übertreffen. INEOS konzentriert Energie und Know-how in ein neues Wasserstoffgeschäft mit dem Ziel, CO2-Emissionen zu reduzieren. INEOS arbeitet mit dem Autohersteller Hyundai zusammen, um Wasserstoff eine reale Chance zu geben, die globale Wirtschaft der Zukunft weiterzubringen – und prüft die Eignung für den neuen Geländewagen, den Grenadier. INEOS hat zudem die Chemieaktivitäten von BP übernommen, um die fehlenden Teile des Chemieportfolios zu vervollständigen und den neuen Geschäftsbereich INEOS Acetyls & Aromatics zu schaffen. Der zu INEOS gehörende Geschäftsbereich INOVYN ist inzwischen einem Konsortium beigetreten, das eine führende Rolle im Kampf gegen den Klimawandel spielen wird. Es ist darüber hinaus an einem schwedischen Projekt beteiligt, das beweisen soll, dass fossilfreies Bauen möglich ist, indem es eine neue Generation von PVC anbietet, das aus einem Rückstand aus der Holzzellstoffproduktion statt auf Gas und Öl basiert.

  • Ineos Grenadier 4×4 Unwrapped
    www.wheelswithinwales.uk Wales’ Ineos Grenadier 4×4 unwrapped Published: 1st July 2020 Author: Robin Roberts Online version: https://www.wheelswithinwales.uk/wales-ineos-grenadier-4x4-unwrapped/ This is the new Ineos Grenadier. INEOS Automotive today reveals the exterior design of the Grenadier, its forthcoming, no- nonsense 4×4 vehicle for the world, as another step on the road towards start of production. Heavily influenced by the previous Land Rover Defender loved by Ineos boss Sir Jim Ratcliffe, it will be built in a new factory at Brocastle Industrial Estate, Bridgend as part of a £600M investment and roll off production lines there towards the end of 2021, creating 200 jobs in the factory next to the Ford Bridgend engine plant which closes this year. If demand for the BMW-powered Grenadier lives up to expectations, another 300 jobs will be created and the new factory expanded. www.wheelswithinwales.uk No price indication has been given but it is expected to be highly competitive in the marketplace when launched in the same way that its specification has been carefully honed to give the widest appeal and possibilities for buyers, both private, public and fleets. Open sourcing design means companies will be able to develop their own accessories and equipment to go into each Grenadier, which is particularly attractive to special vehicle operations and military contractors. The company images show a long-wheelbase model as well as a double-cab pick-up version but more bodystyles will follow depending on demand from particular markets after it initially goes on sale in the UK and Europe and production is ramped up for global sales in places such as Australia and Africa.
