Good news ladies. Two weeks ago I asked Ineos Customer Service which iteration of B58 (petrol) comes in the Grenadier since there are roughly 5 - the original model has naturally had improvements and refinements applied to it since it's debut circa 2016 or so. While they couldn't/didn't give me a specific model number, they finally confirmed that at least it's a B58TU variant. This is good news. I wasn't sure which variant it came with, and for all I knew, Ineos made a deal for the older, not-updated version of the B58, since they struck their deal with BMW years ago when the engine hadn't been out as long.
I did specify that I'm in the United States, so her response was to US. I can only assume that the rest of the world is getting the same variant, just with very slight differences for emissions/regulations etc.
"CASE REFERENCE: 62670
Hi Christopher,
Thank you very much for contacting INEOS Automotive.
I have received a reply from our technical team today.
Apologies for the delay in my response to your query. I have been informed that it is a B85TU variant. Currently in the USA we are still working on the engine to adhere to the different state CO2 emission laws, so I we currently don't have the full model number.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need any further assistance.
Thanks,
Megan
