Ineos Grenadier Quartermaster dimensions (2024)
The Ineos Quartermaster only comes in one shape and size and it’s a large one. This is a long and tall vehicle that might struggle on its ventures into the city.
The loading bay is a decent size, however it is hampered by the lack of standard-fit cover and the unusual placement of the spare wheel.
To find out more about how the Quartermaster handles on the road, read our main review.
The Quartermaster is a big vehicle and it feels it. For a start it is long – longer than the likes of the Ford Ranger and VW Amarok by around 90mm, which is quite something as those are not short vehicles.
That stretched wheelbase is longer than the pickup pair, too, which all means that the Ineos is tricky to move around in tight spaces. The turning circle is a whopping 14.5m kerb to kerb, which is more than a metre and a half bigger than the Amarok’s. Don’t expect to make many friends in your local supermarket car park, especially as the rear overhang means it will take up even more space.
The other parking-based challenge is the Quartermaster’s height – it is a couple of centimetres taller than 2m, which is the standard height restriction for many urban car parks.
- Length: 5,440m
- Width including door mirrors: 2,146mm
- Width without door mirrors: 1,943mm
- Height: 2,019mm
- Wheelbase: 3,227mm
- Rear overhang: 1,328mm
- Front overhang: 887mm
- Wading depth: 800mm
- Ground clearance: 264mm
Ineos Grenadier Quartermaster load area dimensions and capacity
The loading bay in the Quartermaster is not too far off that offered by rival double-cab pickup trucks, although it is slightly different in that it is wider than it is long. It’s fractionally smaller than that in, say, the VW Amarok, but it is a matter of a centimetre or two here and there. There are four tie-down rings for securing your load in place.
The biggest issue is the spare wheel, which is secured to the side of the loading bay, taking up valuable storage space. Without the wheel you can fit a Euro pallet into the bay, but with it in situ you can’t. As the wheel is taller than the loading bay, this also means that you can’t fit a tonneau cover, but you can go for the canvas cover on the accessory list that is more like a soft box.
If you want to make the most of the loading space there are other alternatives, but it means more delving into accessories. You can get a rack to attach the wheel to the roof, but this means that the already tall Quartermaster gets even higher. It’s also a long way up to have to get the spare down from if you need to change a wheel. The wheel might look quite cool in the loading bay, but the space it takes up would be better used for carrying stuff instead.
- Maximum load length: 1,564mm
- Maximum load height: 485mm
- Maximum load width: 1,619mm
- Maximum load width between wheel arches: 1,137mm
- Tailgate opening width: 1,280mm
The Quartermaster might be a big vehicle and is most definitely a pickup truck, but it falls short in a crucial area. It’s a strong tower, though.
Ineos Grenadier Quartermaster payload
This is the Quartermaster’s main issue, certainly if you are considering using it as a commercial truck and want to buy it through your business. Neither the petrol nor the diesel offer the necessary 1,000kg payload to be eligible for VAT reclamation, making it even more expensive than it is anyway.
The petrol offers the better payload, with a maximum capacity of 835kg, while the diesel can take 760kg. While this sounds decent, don’t forget that this has to include the passengers, too. Load up those seats in the cabin with five burly workers and that could be half your payload accounted for already.
Ineos Grenadier Quartermaster towing capacity
One area where the Quartermaster lacks absolutely nothing is its towing capacity. It’s permitted to tow the maximum possible 3,500kg
