Outfitting The Ineos Grenadier with Leitner Designs Gear
There’s something deeply satisfying about starting with a vehicle that’s already built right—and then making it even better. Vehicles like the 2024 Ineos Grenadier arrive with such mechanical honesty and purposeful design that any modifications feel like a natural extension rather than a fix. From the moment you slide behind the wheel, you sense a ruggedness that isn’t about flash—it’s about function. And that function? It’s begging for a little fine-tuning to maximize adventure potential.
The 2024 Ineos Grenadier doesn’t pretend to be anything it’s not. It’s unapologetically boxy, mechanically honest, and engineered with a clear mission: go places most vehicles won’t, then come back without complaint. Ours is a fully loaded example, complete with front and rear locking differentials, which already puts it in rare company straight off the showroom floor. From rocky trails to muddy backroads, the Grenadier is ready to go where most SUVs would struggle. It’s a platform built for exploration, and its utilitarian ethos makes every accessory added feel intentional, purposeful, and part of the whole.
But capability is only half the story. To truly turn the Grenadier into a go-anywhere, carry-everything adventure rig, we partnered with Leitner Designs, MAXTRAX, and Baja Designs to add a suite of purpose-built gear that elevate both function and form. The result? A Grenadier that’s more capable, more organized, and—let’s be honest—looks absolutely dialed. Every piece was selected with thought toward both practicality and style, enhancing the vehicle’s already purposeful lines while giving it that unmistakable expedition-ready aura.
ACS Roof Platform Rack: The Backbone of the Build
Everything starts at the top.
Leitner Designs’ ACS Roof 3/4 Platform Rack for the Grenadier is more than just a place to strap stuff down—it’s a modular foundation that transforms the roof into usable, confidence-inspiring real estate. The low-profile aluminum construction keeps things sleek while offering serious load capacity, and the clean integration looks like it could have rolled out of the factory that way. The rack is also designed to reduce wind noise and drag, which is often overlooked on adventure builds. That means long trips carrying heavy gear don’t become a headache, and the vehicle maintains its refined drive quality while looking completely purposeful from any angle.
Whether it’s recovery gear, camp essentials, or the inevitable “just in case” items that come with real adventure travel, the ACS platform gives you options—without adding visual clutter or compromising the Grenadier’s purposeful lines. We also used this rack as the mounting point for a Baja Designs 30-inch OnX6 Racer Edition Light Bar, which absolutely turns night into day out on the road. With this light bar mounted cleanly on the ACS rack, the Grenadier is prepared for nighttime trail navigation, roadside repairs in the dark, and even long overland stretches where street lighting doesn’t exist. The integration is flawless, keeping the overall profile of the vehicle balanced and intentional.
GearPods + MAXTRAX Mount: Smart Storage Done Right
If you’ve ever dug through soft bags on a roof rack in the rain, you’ll appreciate this setup immediately.
The pair of Leitner GearPods add weatherproof, lockable storage exactly where you want it. It’s perfect for tools, recovery gear, or anything you don’t want bouncing around inside the cabin. Add in the MAXTRAX mounting bracket and suddenly the MAXTRAX MKII Traction Boards are mounted securely, easily accessible, and completely out of the way. This combination keeps essential recovery gear organized, reduces time wasted digging for tools, and ensures everything is ready when you need it most.
It’s one of those setups that makes you wonder why every overland rig doesn’t run something similar. Clean. Functional. Zero drama. The design feels intentional rather than cobbled together, giving both confidence and peace of mind when heading into technical terrain or remote locations.
Side Kick Accessory Panel: Organized Chaos, Solved
One of the Grenadier’s strengths is its utilitarian design, and the Side Kick Accessory Panel leans right into that ethos.
Mounted cleanly and securely, this panel turns unused exterior space into a customizable gear hub. Mount tools, recovery equipment, or expedition essentials in a way that’s organized, visible, and instantly accessible. No rummaging. No wasted space. Just smart use of the Grenadier’s already impressive architecture. It’s a small modification with a massive impact on efficiency, especially on long trips where every second counts and organization is key. We also used this to mount a new RotopaX 5 Gallon Water Container and Jerry Can holder.
Jerry Can Holder: Because Range Is Freedom
Adventure rigs don’t measure range in miles—they measure it in peace of mind.
The Grenadier Jerry Can Holder from Leitner Designs adds secure, exterior-mounted fuel storage that looks as tough as it is practical. Whether you’re extending range in remote areas or just carrying emergency fuel, this setup keeps weight outside the cabin and fuel exactly where it belongs.
The placement is optimal for weight distribution and ease of access, meaning you can refuel quickly and safely, even in difficult conditions. Plus, let’s be honest—nothing says “ready for anything” quite like a jerry can mounted properly on a vehicle like this. It’s an understated but critical piece of an overland-ready setup that enhances both form and function simultaneously.
Front Bumper Light Bar: Because Night Happens
Adventures don’t always end before sunset.
The Leitner Designs Front Bumper Light Bar integrates seamlessly into the Grenadier’s front end, delivering serious illumination without looking aftermarket or overdone. It enhances nighttime visibility on trails, back roads, and remote access routes while maintaining the Grenadier’s clean, industrial aesthetic. It pairs perfectly with the Baja Designs S8 LED Light Bar in amber and the Factor 55 Ultrahook.
Form meets function here in the best way possible, turning night navigation into a safe, confident experience without compromising the vehicle’s signature rugged look.
Final Thoughts: Purpose-Built, Turned Up
The 2024 Ineos Grenadier is already a rare thing in today’s automotive world—a vehicle built with intent. But with the right modifications, intent turns into execution. Every accessory from Leitner Designs contributes to a greater whole, creating a vehicle that is as capable off-road as it is visually striking.
Leitner Designs’ accessories don’t just bolt on; they belong. Each piece enhances capability, improves organization, and complements the Grenadier’s rugged design language. The result is a vehicle that’s more prepared for real adventure—and looks fantastic doing it. From roof racks to light bars, every element serves a purpose while giving the Grenadier a fully cohesive look that inspires confidence at a glance.
This isn’t about overbuilding. It’s about building right. Thoughtful design, purposeful gear, and clean integration make the Grenadier more than a vehicle—it becomes a mobile platform ready for any challenge.
And in that department, this Grenadier is officially ready for whatever’s next, whether that’s technical trails, long overland journeys, or just turning heads wherever it goes. It’s proof that the right accessories can elevate an already great vehicle into something truly exceptional.
