Chelsea Truck Company commissions KAHN® to create a Bold and Unstoppable Widebody INEOS Grenadier: The Series II Expedition

Nov 6, 2024

Chelsea Truck Company and KAHN® are thrilled to present the Series II Expedition, a strikingly aggressive and adventure-ready evolution of the INEOS Grenadier inspired by their Classic Widebody Defender.

When INEOS debuted the Grenadier in 2023, it quickly built a strong following by filling the gap left by the New Defender, capturing the hearts of both rugged off-road enthusiasts and style-conscious drivers seeking functionality wrapped in sophistication. While the Grenadier has proved itself in performance, we at CTC saw room for more—something bold, dramatic, and distinctive.

Seizing this opportunity, we tapped into our intensive experience and history of customising classic Defenders, blending these timeless design cues with the Grenadier’s modern yet enduring lines. Chelsea Truck Company worked in collaboration with KAHN® to develop the prototype, ensuring it meets the highest standards of joint creativity and craftsmanship.

The result? The Series II Expedition—a bespoke transformation that reimagines the Grenadier with dramatic flair, creating an exclusive experience unlike any other.
This launch marks the first of our fully in-house, custom conversion programmes for the INEOS Grenadier, pushing boundaries of design and luxury.

The goal was simple yet ambitious: elevate the Grenadier to a level of refinement and sophistication unmatched by any factory offering. Adopting an OEM+ philosophy, we have enhanced the vehicle’s design, comfort, and usability without sacrificing its legendary off-road capabilities. The Series II Expedition is designed to make a commanding statement wherever it goes, with a broader, more imposing stance and a distinctive, luxurious presence.

The Series II Expedition redefines the Grenadier’s utilitarian image with refined styling, superior design elements, and unparalleled comfort. This vehicle has exclusive exterior enhancements, RS-Forged deep concave wheels, a suspension lift, 37-inch tyres, and a bespoke Italian Nappa leather interior, and is built to conquer any environment with style and power. More than just a Grenadier, this transformation creates a dominant force, ready for any adventure while commanding attention at every turn.

The Series II Expedition Prototype is available now at £93,999.99 and offers an unrivalled set of exclusive features.
