CAPABILITY

INEOS Grenadier Station Wagon

From weekday site visits to weekend escapes off the grid, you need a 4x4 that carries your gear, grit, and your purpose. The INEOS Grenadier Station Wagon and the Ford Bronco chase off-road glory, but they take very different routes to get there. Which one truly begins where the road ends, proving it's made for the mud but built for more?

Power That Pulls Its Weight

Under the hood, the Grenadier Station Wagon houses an award-winning 3.0L BMW-sourced straight-six engine, while the Bronco equips a 2.3L inline-4. Both produce more than 280 horsepower and similar torque, but output alone isn't the full story. It's more about what it helps you accomplish, and what sets the Grenadier apart from the Bronco is what it can handle.

When it comes to the roof, the Bronco tops out at 110 pounds dynamic and 450 pounds static, but only with the optional hard top roof. Meanwhile, the Grenadier offers 330 pounds in motion and 925 pounds parked. So, go ahead, pitch that rooftop tent under the stars. Just make sure it's on the Grenadier. Compared to the Ford Bronco, the INEOS Grenadier Station Wagon doesn't just make power; it makes use of it.

No Pavement? No Problem.

The Grenadier Station Wagon and the Ford Bronco both offer 4x4 capability, but only the Grenadier delivers it full-time. The Bronco's setup is part-time selectable, with automatic on-demand engagement available only as an upgrade. That difference matters when terrain changes quickly and traction needs to be instant, not optional.

You'll go places most people only see on a topo map. With 10.4 inches of ground clearance in the Grenadier and 8.3 inches standard in the Bronco, both models are built for backcountry biking, hiking, or wherever the trail leads. While the Bronco offers optional locking front and rear axles, the Grenadier's standard centre, front, and rear locking differentials deliver maximum traction on slippery, uneven terrain. No matter where you lose grip, the Grenadier keeps you moving forward confidently.

UTILITY

INEOS Grenadier Station Wagon

You're a hands-on problem solver who carries tools, gets your boots muddy, and doesn't think twice about turning a wrench. You believe in utility over polish, and when it comes to your SUV, form should follow function. More than chrome accents and curb appeal, you want a vehicle built with purpose, engineered for real-world tasks, not filtered photo ops.

Rugged Self-Reliance

Both models sit on a steel ladder-frame chassis with solid beam axles built for every condition. But the Grenadier Station Wagon goes further. It comes optionally with a high-mounted air intake, fully waterproofed electronics, and standard front and rear skid plates, so you can ford deep puddles or flooded trails with total confidence. The Bronco, on the other hand, uses a conventional intake and offers bash plates only as an accessory.

That functional mindset extends beyond the frame and into the finer details. While the Bronco features a rear swing gate, accessing your cargo is easier with the Grenadier Station Wagon's versatile 30/70 split rear doors. The Grenadier Station Wagon is offered in three trims, each sharing the same commitment to purpose-driven durability. By contrast, the Bronco offers seven different models, as though it's trying to be all things to all drivers. Part of the Grenadier's appeal is that it dares to be different.

Designed for Dirty Work

When you drive a go-anywhere SUV like the Grenadier or the Bronco, your ride should be as ready to get filthy as you are, and the Grenadier is prepared for it all: mud-splashed co-adventurers; a wet, hyperactive pup; and trail-worn gear. Its stain-resistant, water-repellent RECARO™ seats and drainable utility flooring make quick work of cleanup. The Bronco's cloth seats and carpeted floors require upgrades to offer the same wipe-clean utility.

After a day spent tuning up your rig in the rain or hauling through muddy switchbacks, the Grenadier's optional heated exterior mirrors and heated windscreen washer jets clear grime in seconds. The Bronco also includes heated mirrors, but skips features that make de-mucking your view feel effortless. For those eager to get down and dirty, the Grenadier is ready to help you reset and keep rolling.

CLARITY

INEOS Grenadier Station Wagon

When it comes to technology, you're not interested in trends; you're after tools that serve a purpose. You want to stay connected when you're off-grid and stay protected when the road (or off-road) gets tough. Oversized screens, endless menus, and flashy gimmicks are not your style. What matters is tech that works when it counts without getting in the way of the task (or the trail) ahead.

Tools, Not Toys

Although both SUVs include Bluetooth®, voice control, and wireless phone integration, the Grenadier Station Wagon keeps things straightforward. Its 12.3-inch display pairs with a Central Control System, giving you the choice of touchscreen, rotary controller, or steering wheel inputs. Ford's Bronco offers a 12-inch touchscreen and matching digital cluster, but its layered menus and screen-heavy interface demand more attention, especially when gloved-up or jostling through rough terrain.

Only the INEOS includes everything you need and nothing you don't. Purpose-built for serious off-roaders, the Grenadier Station Wagon comes standard with Pathfinder Off-Road Navigation, which displays topographical trail maps and live data without relying on a cell signal. The Bronco has no similar built-in feature.

Confidence in the Crunch

No matter if you're carving up canyons solo or have passengers aboard, safety can't be an afterthought. Mechanical strength matters, but so does backup. That's why the INEOS Grenadier Station Wagon comes equipped with key driver-assist features that help prevent fatigue, monitor your focus, and intervene when necessary. They add to your peace of mind when navigating tight switchbacks, dodging wildlife at dusk, or pushing through a rainy descent after dark.

The Grenadier Station Wagon comes standard with:

  • Intelligent Speed Assist
  • Lane Departure Warning
  • Automatic Emergency Braking
  • Driver Drowsiness Detection

Ford's Co-Pilot360™ system covers the basics, but Adaptive Cruise Control and Driver Alert aren't standard and require upgrades. So, while the Bronco checks the safety box in theory, the Grenadier delivers it in practice. With the INEOS, you get rugged reassurance wherever the road (or lack thereof) leads.
