The Ineos Fusilier was a planned mid-size SUV produced by the British automaker Ineos Automotive Ltd., a division of the petrochemical group Ineos. It was set to be assembled by Magna Steyr at its factory in Graz, Austria.
History
[edit]The Fusilier was unveiled in images by the manufacturer on 23 February 2024 at the Grenadier pub in London.[1][2] Production of the vehicle is scheduled to begin no earlier than 2027.[3]
Ineos automotive announced in early July 2024 to have postponed production of the Fusilier due to low demand and regulatory changes.[4]
Specifications
[edit]The Fusilier was to be equipped with an electric motor powered by a battery, or a rechargeable gasoline-electric hybrid assembly consisting of a thermal engine acting as a range extender which does not drive the wheels but only recharges the battery weeling.[5] It was set to be offered as plug-in hybrid and electric vehicle.[6]
