Where's the confidence level in the company?

[CrazyOldMan]

I wouldn't be surprised if the changeover happened during the shutdown.


Factory 23.5 with that date.

However, the reverse camera is the main way to tell if you have the only "real" difference between the 23/23.5 and 24.

I don't see Ineos doing major changes over the years, but instead, just tweak a bit here and there based on third party manufacturer updates. Maybe add more things that they said they wouldn't put on the car when the project started! Possibly things that US buyers or reviews on YouTube moan about not being present. With the US being the major market, I reckon US desires will drive the things they add.

Yeah - that was the Fieldmaster trim for the landed gentry. It needs a lift and bigger tires.

Ok let’s see if it lets me download a pic of my back up camera……

Wow it did!! Wonder why it wouldn’t let me do the date in the door jam? Oh well another issue for another time.

So with this pic of my backup camera what say you, 23.5 or 24??

You have the MY24 based on that picture.

 

[TCMColorado]

You have the MY24 based on that picture.

So the backup display was actually a smaller image in pre 2024 models? If so I can see why owners would have complained. The current size is totally acceptable but a smaller image would be less than ideal.

Yes. Here is a grab from someone with an MY23 or MY23.5.

With DGG being on MY24 with an 11/23 build, it looks like the changeover happened much earlier than thought. I have been trying to nail down the changeover dates but with so little data and a long gap between factory build and delivery date it was hard to tell. A dealer in the UK told me March or April but that looks wrong now. Maybe some other forum members can check their rear view camera and build dates and we can nail this once and for all. That may help future buyers as they will then know how close they are to model year changeover.

THANK YOU!! I admit on not being the brightest color in the crayon box and for the life of me couldn’t figure out what the heck you were saying about being a pop up and didn’t want to sound like an idiot asking. now I get it!! What’s crazy is my Eldoret Blue one was purchased first but has a later date on it (3/24) so guess the Queens red was just sitting on the dealer lot longer. The back up camera for the EB is the same as the QR so apparently both mine are MY24’s right?

Yep. Both MY24. So, all good for you.... until MY25 comes along and there is something on it you want and you have to get number 3 then.

Haha The joke is on you, I was already planning on a 3rd but this time the Quartermaster.

All US vehicles are MY 2024

Edit: Sold to customers

 

[Dual Grenny Guy]

All US vehicles are MY 2024

Is that for current for sale models only or since sales started in the US (meaning the US only received the MY24 models)?

Since they went on sale. The US was the launch country for MY24, even when the RoW was still getting MY23.5 vehicles; the assembly line has the ability to make different MY vehicles at the same time

See yet another new thing I learned on this forum.

Good luck and I promise you will keep trying to find ways to drive it. A tank it is, but rides much smoother!!

The confidence level must be very high if dealerships are investing millions of dollars. https://www.newstimes.com/news/article/ineos-grenadier-curry-buys-danbury-auto-site-19844885.php

Yep, and Sewell in the Dallas area announced that they are opening a second Grenadier dealership in San Antonio.

Reading this forum, you would think that Ineos is going out of business. As the company motto is "Grit, Rigour & Humour" i really don't believe they are going to give up on this project. My car is a very early chassis number so I had a couple of issues which have been corrected now. I personally really enjoy the car and and feel the negative press and reviews are a massive distraction from what is a brilliant vehicle.
