• Ineos has revealed the new Grenadier Game Viewer.
  • It’s a safari-style off-roader that offers a soft top.
  • Offers flexible seating for four to nine passengers.

Ineos has introduced the new Grenadier Game Viewer, ahead of its launch early next year. It follows in the footsteps of a previous concept, which “generated enormous interest from game reserves and luxury safari lodges across Sub-Sahara Africa” as well as ranches and estates in the United States, Middle East, and South East Asia.

adpushup.que.push(function() {
if (adpushup.config.platform !== “DESKTOP”){
adpushup.triggerAd(“0f7e3106-c4d6-4db4-8135-c508879a76f8”);
} else {
adpushup.triggerAd(“82503191-e1d1-435a-874f-9c78a2a54a2f”);
}
});

The Game Viewer is being described as a bespoke in-house conversion, which will be based on long- and extra-long wheelbase versions of the Grenadier. Partially built vehicles will be shipped from the company’s Hambach assembly plant to Ineos Kavango in Botswana.

They’ll arrive with “no paint, tailgates, seats (except the front), side glazing, roof skin, trims or unnecessary electrical features.” These shells will then be transformed into Game Viewers, which can accommodate between four and nine rear passengers.

There’s room for tailoring, too. Buyers can spec the seating arrangement, storage setup, and roof design to suit their operational needs.

According to Ineos, the conversion requires no chassis modifications, which means the vehicle remains eligible for a full manufacturer’s warranty along with factory-backed aftersales support. That should increase the model’s appeal and help the Game Viewer to stand out from other conversions.

Four vehicles will enter service next month at Hiddn Lodge near Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth) in South Africa. These are “proof-of-concept conversions” and they helped serve as a “test bed” for the production Game Viewer.

The company hasn’t released further details specific to the Game Viewer, but the standard Grenadier features BMW-sourced 3.0-liter inline-six engines. The gas variant produces 282 hp (210 kW / 286 PS) and 332 lb-ft (450 Nm) of torque, while the diesel churns out 245 hp (183 kW / 249 PS) and 406 lb-ft (550 Nm).

Ineos Automotive CEO Lynn Calder called the new model “the Grenadier coming full circle,” referencing company founder Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s original inspiration for the vehicle, which came during a safari in Botswana nearly a decade ago.

}
});

“The teams at Hambach and Ineos Kavango have been working together for the last 18 months to bring the Grenadier Game Viewer to life as a full production model, and we can’t wait to see it in service,” she said.
