If you’re researching INEOS Grenadier towing capacity before you buy, the number that matters most is 7,716 pounds. That figure holds steady across the Station Wagon<\/a> and the Quartermaster<\/a>, and it doesn’t change if you pick the diesel or the petrol engine. Every Grenadier that leaves the factory is built to pull a real trailer, not just a bike rack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That matters a lot if you live in Utah. Maybe you’re hauling a boat to Lake Powell, pulling a camper into the Uintas, or towing a trailer of dirt bikes out to the West Desert. The Grenadier handles all three without much fuss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What’s the Real INEOS Grenadier Towing Capacity?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

INEOS built the Grenadier as a working vehicle first and an off-roader second, and towing was part of the plan from day one. According to the official Grenadier specs<\/a>, both the Station Wagon and the Quartermaster are rated at 7,716 pounds (3,500 kg) for a braked trailer, straight out of the factory. You don’t need a special trim or an add-on towing package to get that number. It’s the standard rating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That includes every trim inside the Station Wagon lineup too. Pick a Fieldmaster or a Trialmaster and the payload and towing numbers stay the same. INEOS builds all of them on the same ladder frame with the same axles, so the extra off-road hardware on a Trialmaster, like skid plates and a locking differential, doesn’t cost you any pulling power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rating also stays the same no matter which engine you choose. That’s different from a lot of competitors, where towing capacity depends heavily on which engine or trim you pick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What if You’re Pulling an Unbraked Trailer?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Not every trailer has its own brakes. Utility trailers, small boat trailers, and some ATV trailers rely on the tow vehicle to do all the stopping. For those, the Grenadier’s unbraked limit is 1,653 pounds (750 kg). That still covers a loaded utility trailer or a couple of side by sides, but check your trailer’s actual weight before you hook up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Grenadier also comes with a factory receiver hitch rated for 771 pounds of tongue weight. Its gross combined weight rating comes in at 15,432 pounds (7,000 kg), which covers the truck, the trailer, and everything loaded into both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Does the Grenadier Compare to Other Off-Roaders?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here’s how the Grenadier’s towing numbers stack up against the vehicles buyers cross-shop most often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vehicle<\/strong><\/td>Max Towing Capacity<\/strong><\/td>Notes<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>
INEOS Grenadier<\/td>7,716 lbs<\/td>Standard on every trim, no towing package needed<\/td><\/tr>
Land Rover Defender 110<\/td>7,716 lbs<\/td>Matches the Grenadier, but only with the optional tow package<\/td><\/tr>
Land Rover Defender 110 X<\/td>8,201 lbs<\/td>Higher trim only<\/td><\/tr>
Ford Bronco<\/td>4,500 lbs<\/td>Top rating limited to Heritage Edition and Raptor with the 3.0L EcoBoost V6<\/td><\/tr>
Jeep Wrangler (4-door Rubicon)<\/td>5,000 lbs<\/td>Two-door models top out at 2,000 lbs<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

That puts the Grenadier ahead of the Bronco and the Wrangler by a wide margin, and it matches the Defender’s number without charging extra for a towing package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Want Even More Pulling Power?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If 7,716 pounds isn’t enough, INEOS offers an optional Red Winches unit rated to pull up to 12,125 pounds. It’s built more for recovery than daily towing, so think stuck trucks and fallen trees rather than hauling a fifth wheel. Still, it’s a nice option if you spend a lot of time off the beaten path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
