Le Prototype Grenadier D'ineos Rencontre Ses Sources D'inspiration 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. Et ce concours est le premier événement public au cours duquel nous exposons le véhicule au Royaume-Uni, confie Dirk Heilmann, PDG d’INEOS Automotive. Sa présence aux côtés d’une collection de véhicules tout-terrain mythiques est tout à fait justifiée. Ils ont été une source d’inspiration pour le projet Grenadier et incarnent l’esprit d’aventure dont les clients du monde entier pourront continuer de profiter grâce à ce nouveau véhicule. Nous sommes impatients de voir la réaction des nombreux visiteurs de l’événement. » Les essais du prototype du Grenadier sont en cours, l’objectif étant de cumuler 1,8 million de kilomètres sur route et en tout-terrain au cours de l’année à venir. La commercialisation devrait démarrer sur divers marchés dans le monde à partir de fin 2021. Le Concours d’Élégance est l’une des expositions de voitures anciennes et de collection les plus renommées au monde. Organisé les années précédentes au château de Windsor, au palais St James de Londres et au palais de Holyrood à Édimbourg, le concours a de nouveau lieu en 2020 au château de Hampton Court à Londres pour la quatrième année consécutive. Outre les 60 voitures parmi les plus rares du monde qui participeront au concours, des centaines de véhicules prestigieux seront également exposés par des clubs automobiles pour tenter de remporter le Trophée Club. ### À propos d’INEOS Grenadier En 2017, le président d’INEOS, Sir Jim Ratcliff, passionné d’automobile et aventurier chevronné, constate que le marché manque d’un 4x4 utilitaire dépouillé et ultra résistant conçu avec le souci de fiabilité et répondant aux exigences d’aujourd’hui. INEOS Automotive Limited est fondée, et une équipe expérimentée de professionnels du secteur automobile est constituée pour concrétiser cette vision. Alliant l’esprit britannique robuste à la rigueur de l’ingénierie allemande, le Grenadier sera un 4x4 vraiment sans compromis, construit à partir de zéro. Conçu pour affronter toutes les situations, il offrira des performances en tout-terrain, une résistance et une fiabilité exceptionnelles à ceux qui se servent de leur véhicule comme outil de travail, où qu’ils soient dans le monde. En termes d’ingénierie, nous en sommes à la phase d’industrialisation, soutenus par notre partenaire Magna Steyr, et les essais du prototype sont en cours. Le Grenadier d’INEOS entrera en production fin 2021. INEOS Automotive est une filiale d’INEOS Group (www.ineos.com), l’un des principaux fabricants de produits pétrochimiques, de produits chimiques spéciaux et de produits pétroliers. Le groupe emploie 23 000 personnes dans 34 entreprises, avec un réseau de production comptant 183 sites dans 26 pays. Des peintures aux plastiques, en passant par les textiles et les technologies, ou encore les médicaments et les téléphones portables, les produits INEOS améliorent toutes les facettes de la société moderne. En 2019, INEOS a enregistré un chiffre d’affaires d’environ 61 milliards de dollars. Pour en savoir plus sur le Grenadier, rendez-vous sur www.ineosgrenadier.com. .

  • 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.

  • Tales from Wales Show the Challenges of COVID-19 and Brexit… by Ian
    Tales from Wales show the challenges of COVID-19 and Brexit… By Ian Henry, Owner and Managing Director of AutoAnalysis and Visiting Professor at the Centre for Brexit Studies. Recently the rather unusual plans of a new entrant into automotive manufacturing – Ineos – to make SUVs in Wales have been paused (for which read almost certainly cancelled); shortly after this news came reports that a fledgling – but as yet not fully funded – British start-up, Britishvolt, would build a gigafactory for in Wales, near the new Aston Martin plant. One piece of bad news quickly followed by a piece of potentially good news. Maybe, or maybe not. Ineos’ plans to make the large and heavy chassis at the heart of its SUV in Portugal and then ship it Wales where it would be assembled with other European sourced parts into a spiritual successor to the Land Rover Defender were always odd; in an era when the industry has largely moved away from body-on-frame structures in favour of monocoques and towards fully electric or hybrid vehicles, Ineos’ dual production location strategy merely added to Ineos’ odd plans to build an SUV on an outdated structure powered solely by internal combustion engines. Now, with neither the Welsh nor the Portuguese plants having seen much construction progress and the economic consequences of COVID-19 beginning to bite, Ineos appears to have had a change of mind. The fact that the manufacturing planners and engineers running the programme are mostly ex-Mercedes may have had something to do with it, especially when the Daimler announced it would like to sell the Smart factory in France; this had been due to make the new Mercedes EQA electric vehicle.

Jaguar Land Rover sought to get the trademark rights for the shape of the Defender SUV, but it failed and means billionaire Jim Ratcliffe’s Ineos Group can Enthusiast: Sir Jim Radcliffie with a Defender in November 2018 go ahead with the as he prepared to develop his Ineos Grenadier Grenadier off-road vehicle, which he admits was inspired by Defender. A London court on Monday dismissed an appeal by JLR, owned by India’s Tata Motors Ltd. The UK Intellectual Property Office had found the shapes it sought to get protected weren’t distinctive enough. www.wheelswithinwales.uk The judge upheld the findings by the IP Office that while differences in design may appear significant to some, they “may be unimportant, or may not even register, with average consumers.” Grenadier is a tough four-wheel drive vehicle(right ) that was going to be built in Wales until Ineos decided to assemble it in France instead at a former Daimler factory. Ineos U-turn on Welsh car plant for Grenadier JLR said in a statement that it was disappointed by the ruling and that the Defender’s shape has been trademarked in several markets. This could mean the right to sell the Grenadier may be challenged in those markets where JLR has secured its trademark over the Defender.
