The Ineos Grenadier, known for its uncompromising utility, receives a stealthy upgrade with the new Black Edition. The trim package adds aggressive styling and premium features while retaining the vehicle’s core off-road capability.
Dark Aesthetic, Practical Upgrades
The Black Edition distinguishes itself through extensive black trim, including a gloss-black grille, 18-inch alloy wheels, and dark skidplates. A unique “Black Edition” badge and tinted windows complete the exterior look. Inside, the cabin receives dark headlining, carpet flooring, and a lockable storage box integrated into the spare wheel well.
Pricing and Options
The Grenadier Black Edition is available in both Station Wagon and Quartermaster (pickup) body styles, starting at £71,995 – a £2,000 premium over the Fieldmaster trim. This places it above the base Grenadier’s £62,495 starting price, though used models can be found for under £37,000.
Performance and Refinements
The Black Edition benefits from recent updates to the Grenadier platform, including recalibrated steering for improved responsiveness. The vehicle is offered with either a 282bhp petrol or a 300Nm diesel six-cylinder BMW engine. While both provide ample power, the diesel’s superior torque and fuel efficiency make it the preferred choice for demanding applications.
Who Will Buy This?
The rugged design and discreet aesthetic make the Black Edition an ideal choice for professionals needing a high-capability vehicle that doesn’t draw unwanted attention. Undercover police units or farmers who require a no-nonsense workhorse will find it especially appealing. The limited production window suggests exclusivity without the constraints of a numbered edition like the 2023 Grenadier 1924.
The Ineos Grenadier Black Edition is a functional and stylish upgrade, bridging the gap between pure utility and subtle refinement. It’s a vehicle built for those who demand capability without compromise.
