<\/p>\nMagna Steyr’s plant in Graz, Austria<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Magna previously worked on development of the Grenadier, Ineos noted. This larger SUV, which is currently offered only with internal-combustion engines, started production late last year. A pickup truck is currently in development and is expected to enter production next year.<\/p>\n
The Grenadier is being built at the plant in France that used to build Smart EQ Fortwo<\/a> electric cars. Ineos launched the Grenadier with BMW-sourced gasoline and diesel engines, but confirmed a fuel-cell version<\/a> in 2021, and announced a zero-emission model line in 2022.<\/p>\n 2022 Ineos Grenadier<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Magna already has experience building electric SUVs as a contract manufacturer. It started production of the Fisker Ocean<\/a>\u00a0late last year, and built the Jaguar I-Pace all along. It’s also suggested it would be able to revamp the I-Pace to go 300 miles on a charge<\/a>.<\/p>\n The company is also a supplier of components to automakers, with several recent products aimed at improving efficiency or expanding electrification. It claims it can boost EV range by 30%<\/a>, with an emphasis on software and controls. It has also pushed an eBeam unit that it says might allow heavy-duty pickups and traditional SUVs to go all-electric without detracting from payload or towing<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Ineos Automotive, the company behind the old school Grenadier off-roader, will launch an electric SUV, to be built by Magna at the latter’s Graz, Austria, factory starting in 2026.
