I don’t follow any Grenadier specific forums, and maybe some of you do so you already know, but I found this post about an article that says production was delayed due to supply chain issues with a few parts. They expect to begin production later this month.
One of the worst environments for a new car company ever.
Because of their KISS approach, as bad as they have it, other companies are worse off because of supply issues.
Ineos always was going to suffer delays getting to market. Murphy's law. New company new product new distribution.

I assume it’s the light blue truck that they showed in Colorado
Let's hope there's some wisdom in that German couples video HERE that Ineos will take a bit of a loss for the first year or two rather than shoot themselves in the foot right out of the gate by aiming for instant profits.
It is attractive but I need to stand/kneel on the bumper to do repairs in the engine compartment.
Their rollout is right out of the Land Rover play book. By the time they list a price the excitement and anticipation will be long gone and the driveways will be filled with Ford Broncos.

It’s the Guardian, they hate the man.
I always hate it when a "news site" wastes thousands of words over-emphasizing something that is a simple straightforward fact. It's hard to make a profit until you sell a product. And Ineos has supply issues like everyone else at the moment. Not much they can do.It's losing money at a horrid rate..... and prices are definitely rising.

Yes, supply is a problem. Chips are a problem everywhere, and I'd bet a nickel the wiring harnesses are made in Ukraine.
And Ineos, as the new guy on the block, probably doesn't have a lot of muscle to throw around against some of the others...
