If any of you have been intrigued by the upcoming Ineos Grenadier, I had the opportunity to drive one in November, and since I'm no longer embargoed I've published a report here. It's an impressive vehicle.

I assume if we have to ask about the price, we can’t afford one.

 

It does sound like a nice vehicle.

Very nicely done, both the vehicle and your article. Impressive.

Starting base price in the U.S. is currently set at $97,000. So maybe 110-115k after options, tax, etc. Another toy, Steve???

Following professional bike racing, I wondered what Ineos Grenadiers were, but never looked it up. Their team is quite successful.

Thank you for the comments! The Grenadier top is not removable. Pricing the last I heard starts at $59,600 in the U.S., not $97,000. Pricing in the UK starts at £49,000, so that makes sense.

Thanks, enjoyed that read. Guessing general specs are not availible as this is in prototype stage.
