INEOS has launched the Grenadier Game Viewer into series production—the most expedition-ready version of its off-roader, purpose-built for safari work. Despite the name, this isn’t about video entertainment: here, “Game Viewer” is literal, focused on observing wildlife. The conversion will be carried out by INEOS Kavango at its facility in Maun, northern Botswana, with first vehicles promised in early 2026—two years after prototypes were shown at several specialist events.Its intended clientele spans premium safari lodges across sub-Saharan Africa, along with ranches and estates in the United States, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia. Long- and extra-long-wheelbase options are planned, with seating for up to nine.The production plan is unusual: base Grenadiers will be shipped from Hambach, France in a semi-assembled state—unpainted, without the rear door, without seats (apart from the fronts), without side glazing, parts of the roof and trim, and without nonessential electronics. That setup streamlines the safari conversion without touching the chassis, so the ladder frame and the original 4x4’s strength and longevity stay intact. It’s a pragmatic way to tailor the vehicle for the bush while preserving what makes the Grenadier appealing.INEOS underscores that factory warranty and support remain after the conversion. INEOS Kavango can handle maintenance, but operators are allowed to service the vehicles themselves if they follow the procedures and use genuine parts. To support that, the company promises training, tools, a spares inventory, and service instructions. The emphasis on support feels well-judged for this niche.
