Count Orlok is pleased that INEOS will announce "dealer" relationships in the next couple of weeks. Moreover, Grenadier continues to be an above average communicator with the following love note today:


... the first Grenadiers have touched down on US soil. They share the latest on the launch of the retail partner networks in the US and Canada, which set the stage for on-road test drives in the weeks following. They’ll also discuss pre-delivery inspections, the future for pre-orders, and more.

Too much truck for me, but it looks fun.

Rivian R1S
no surprise The Count will be slumming in Illinoize...

Grenadier SUV will be available in November at 18 U.S. dealers
Where are you now with things? I got my R1S about a month ago and enjoying it. Couple niggles that the credit cards and wrist band don't work but nothing major. Your repair issue is worrisome as I'm also not near an SC and I don't even have a spare tire! I have a base fieldmaster w October 23 build date and VIN #. i'll test drive in November but I can't keep both and my wife prefers the R1S based on mpg and green tech... Guestimate a January 24 delivery?.?

Still figuring a date for the INEOS test drive as we're trying to combine the trip with needed Rivian service. If you have your VIN already you are ahead of The Count.

The Grenadier is additive to our stable and not replacing the S.

It'd be nice to keep both but can't do it. In Raleigh, NC near the Ineos HQ. Neighbor spotted an employee grenadier last week. I'll still have to drive 90 miles to the dealer to test drive/buy though.

Fresh off a test drive of a production model The Count can report that the cameras/screen are "meh" and it is way too easy to oversteer in standard mode. Seems sluggish compared to the R1S and even The Count's F-150h. But man oh man is it purdy and fun. As most of you already know, The Count offered a bribe to snag one on the lot but alas the dealer is not as corruptible as expected. The Countess is going to order her own. Stay tuned as The Count knows you will.

The Count has been notified his vehicle is in production and now has a VIN. But most of you already know this tidbit. Did you know he ordered Queen's Red?

Queen's Red you ask? Well that is because Graduate Students' Tears Black was sold out.

This Ineos car has an appearance of 20th century car.
