INEOS Grenadier 4WD available in Australia

Gold Coast-based SLRV Expedition Vehicles has been nominated as retail partner by new off-road vehicle manufacturer INEOS Automotive. The partnership will grant SLRV the license to retail INEOS Automotives’ flagship vehicle; the Grenadier to 4WD enthusiasts across Australia; further contributing to INEOS plans to have a 200-strong sales and after sales network spanning over 50 countries by the end of 2022.

SLRV Director Warwick Boswerger said “the partnership represents a major milestone for the SLRV brand. The addition of the Grenadier to our already high quality, reliable and capable range of off-road vehicles will equip us further in providing yet another option for our growing customer-base”.

Owned by parent company the INEOS Group, the Grenadier is described as a rugged, capable and comfortable goanywhere working vehicle. Practical features include a 70:30 split rear door, integrated roof bars, pre-wiring for auxiliary lamps and accessories, and a front bumper to sit on. An ‘open-source’ approach to accessories means owners can tailor the vehicle to their specific requirements.

A family-owned business; SLRV are no strangers to the 4WD industry and wider community. From the ages of 2, 3 and 4, the Boswerger boys set off to explore remote Australia with parents Bill and Marion in a series 1 short wheelbase Land Rover; a far cry from their expedition vehicles of today. As they say, all things great come from small beginnings. With collective four-wheel-driving experience in the Boswerger family spanning in excess of 200 years, the partnership with INEOS and the adoption of the Grenadier into their existing fleet of off-road vehicles truly is a match made in heaven.

The partnership marks the first time SLRV has aligned itself with a notable consumer 4WD vehicle brand from a retail perspective; “this is an exciting time for our brand and validates our notable years of serving the RV and fourwheel- driving community. To be nominated by INEOS Automotive, confirms that we as a brand are not only valued but also recognised as passionate and experienced contributors to the industry” Warwick said.

SLRV has a long history in producing quality and capable off-road expedition vehicles; manufacturing products from their production facility in Molendinar and shipping abroad both here in Australia and overseas. SLRV’s commitment to providing the very best in design, quality materials and components positions them to lead INEOS Automotive to a successful launch and ongoing retail arrangement of the Grenadier in Australia.

“We have worked tirelessly for over a year to find retail partners that share our enthusiasm and excitement for the Grenadier,” said Justin Hocevar, Head of Region – APAC for INEOS Automotive. Adding “engaging retail partners who understand 4X4 users and their requirements, and have a proven track record for exceptional customer

service”.

Production of the INEOS Grenadier will start in July 2022 at the company’s state-of-the-art factory at Hambach, on the German border. Ineos are now taking orders directly from their website www.ineosgrenadier.com
