• Vision Motors has been appointed as INEOS Automotive distributor in Fiji
• Two locations across Fiji join over 200 INEOS Grenadier sales and service points worldwide
• Global retail network includes established dealer groups, 4X4 specialists and equipment dealers
Suva Fiji, 27 October 2023 – INEOS Automotive has appointed Vision Motors to operate its sales and service network in Fiji.
Combining rugged British spirit and design with German engineering rigour, the Grenadier is a tough, go-anywhere off-road vehicle with the modern comfort, refinement and quality standards expected by today’s drivers.
The brainchild of INEOS Group Chairman Sir Jim Ratcliffe, the Grenadier features award-winning engines, a ladder-frame chassis, permanent four-wheel-drive, up to three locking differentials and solid beam axles. It is a blank canvas that provides the basis for buyers to easily select and configure their perfect Grenadier with a wide range of options and accessories.
“We have worked tirelessly to find distribution partners that share our enthusiasm and excitement for the Grenadier,” said Justin Hocevar, Head of Asia Pacific region, INEOS Automotive. “We have so far established a global network of more than 200 retail and service sites in over 40 markets, with partners who understand 4X4 users and their requirements, and have a proven track record for exceptional customer service. We are extremely pleased to be working with Vision Motors to ensure our customers in Fiji receive the advice, guidance and support they need.”
In the coming months, the Vision Motors team will complete an intensive INEOS training programme for the sales agents and workshop technicians.
INEOS aims for the majority of customers in Asia Pacific to always be within a reasonable distance of an authorised sales and service location. Distribution partners are responsible for the sale of vehicles, as well as facilitating test drives and supporting customer deliveries. They will also provide the service network, offering quality customer-centric aftersales care.
“We are delighted to have been appointed to represent INEOS Grenadier – a ‘Go Anywhere 4x4’,” said Ajay Lal, Dealer Principal at Vision Motors. “Delivering an exceptional on and off-road driving experience, this high-grade vehicle embodies rugged British styling and is underpinned by world-class German engineering. I have no doubt it will exceed the expectations of prospective buyers here in Fiji. Our plans include a facility in Karsanji and Nadi to provide quality sales and aftersales services to INEOS Grenadier customers.”
The INEOS Grenadier
The backbone of the Grenadier is a full box-section ladder frame chassis, with heavy-duty solid beam axles, a two-speed transfer case and up to three locking differentials. It is powered by a choice of BMW 3.0-litre turbo-charged inline six-cylinder petrol or diesel engines, which have been extensively revised and recalibrated for this application. 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.
The interior combines versatility and practicality with the latest technology and exceptional comfort. Its intuitive and functional layout features physical switches that are widely spaced for easy use on the move. A central infotainment touchscreen gives intuitive access to a range of information displays and settings menus. An overhead console provides controls and switches for off-road and auxiliary controls. Hose-out rubber flooring, Recaro seats – available in hard-wearing cloth or leather – and numerous stowage options mean the Grenadier is ready for anything work and life can throw at it.
