Ineos may use Chery platform for smaller SUV
The Ineos Fusilier may actually come to life after all, but with a little help from Chinese automaker Chery. According to Autocar, Ineos has opened discussions with Chery about using the Chery's iCar battery-electric (EV) and range-extender electric vehicle (EREV) platform architecture for the stalled Fusilier project. Ineos unveiled the Fusilier concept in February 2024 with a view to putting it into production by 2027 as smaller companion to the Grenadier SUV and Quartermaster ute. The Fusilier concept had a skateboard platform designed for pure electric and EREV drivetrains. Hundreds of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now.

By July that year, though, the company beat a strategic retreat, delaying the car's launch indefinitely due to "reluctant consumer uptake of EVs, and industry uncertainty around tariffs, timings and taxation". Using an existing platform from another automaker will save Ineos both time and money. Once the Fusilier is on the market, it will help Ineos meet its CO2 emissions targets in the UK and Europe. At present Ineos sells some of its cars as commercial vehicles, as they have less stringent targets. Currently the iCar brand is only available in China, although the brand's first model, the 03, is available in some export markets under the Chery or Jaecoo marques. The iCar V23 (above), which was unveiled at the end of 2024 and measures just 4.2m long, is available with a 100kW/180Nm single-motor drivetrain with either a 47.3kWh or 59.9kWh battery, or a 155kW/292Nm dual-motor system with an 81.8kWh battery. Chery has confirmed it will launch the iCar brand in Europe and Australia, although in these markets the name is being tweaked to iCaur in order to avoid a trademark conflict with Apple. Should this collaboration with Ineos come about, it will be Chery's second SUV partnership with a foreign brand. Through its relationship with JLR (Jaguar Land Rover), it will build and launch the Freelander brand in China before taking it across the world. The new Freelander models will replace local production of Jaguar and Land Rover models at the company's joint venture factory in Changshu.

Ineos CEO: People Don't Want To Be Force-Fed EVs
The European Union might have relaxed its rules regarding the sale of new gasoline/diesel cars, but it'll still be hard for automakers to keep combustion alive. That frustrates Ineos Automotive CEO Lynn Calder, who says the industry should listen to customer demand and not top-down policies pushing full electrification. Ineos wants to give customers a choice—not just electric vehicles. She told Top Gear that hybrids are popular, and yet 'policy is defining what people should buy, and people don't want it,' even though she believes electrification 'will always have its place.' These policies are significantly harder on smaller auto operations like Ineos. But the company is embracing the new technology. Ineos Fusilier Over a year ago, Ineos revealed the Fusilier , an electric vehicle with a range-extender option. The project is currently paused, according to Calder. If it hits the market in 2027 or 2028, Ineos might be unable to sell it long enough to make a business case for producing it. Calder also believes the EU will extend the ability to continue selling non-zero-emissions vehicles beyond the deadline. The EU relaxed the wording regarding its ban on combustion-powered vehicles, saying instead that it wants zero-emissions vehicles, which leaves the door open for carbon-neutral fuels like hydrogen or synthetic fuels. She said that pushing for lowering emissions should be the goal, not a push for zero-emissions vehicles. Ineos Automotive was formed in 2017 to design and build a utilitarian off-road vehicle that would become the Grenadier. It also sells the Quartermaster pickup truck. The company sources its 3.0-liter inline-six gas and diesel engines from BMW .
