Ineos automotive announced in early July 2024 to have postponed production of the Fusilier due to low demand and regulatory changes.[4]

Specifications

edit

The Fusilier was to be equipped with an electric motor powered by a battery, or a rechargeable gasoline-electric hybrid assembly consisting of a thermal engine acting as a range extender which does not drive the wheels but only recharges the battery weeling.[5] It was set to be offered as plug-in hybrid and electric vehicle.[6]
