The order books for the Ineos Grenadier, the rugged British 4x4 inspired by the original Land Rover Defender, will begin next month and the first vehicles will reach SA shores in October 2022
About 75,000 people have expressed interest in buying the vehicle and these “handraisers” will be able to place a build reservation from September 30, for an exclusive two-week period. From October 14, reservations will open to everyone else.
Ineos Automotive SA will have three retail and service sites in the country: SMH Group in Gauteng, and SMG dealers in Cape Town and Durban. Additional Bosch Car Service outlets will provide further aftersales coverage, while the company is exploring the possibility of BMW SA becoming a service partner as the Grenadiers use BMW engines.
The comprehensive service network means most customers will never be further than 50km away from an Ineos-accredited workshop, says Tim Abbott, former MD of BMW SA who heads up Ineos Grenadier Sub Saharan Africa. The company will also offer online support for self repair with a 3D interactive technical manual and step-by-step maintenance and repair videos.
