GORV ’ S GREATEST VANS 2024
The Grenade was built upon a chassis made of 550-grade steel , which has the structural integrity to accommodate lightening holes – an engineering principle that , effectively , reduces weight without reducing strength . The 6in RHS chassis previously used for the Grenade has been traded for something almost automative in design and appearance .
The van employs a whole host of unique ideas , from the spare wheel carrier on the A-frame to the slide-out trays at the rear of the van .
As for the suspension , the van had an airbag wishbone system with dual shock absorbers per wheel .
Inside , the van makes excellent use of space , thanks especially to the elevating bed . Just push a button and it will electrically lower over the dinette . Overall , this van had a space-saving layout that clearly employed a healthy dose of lateral thinking , which is a sentiment I could extend to the exterior of the van .
As standard , the Grenade came with 200Ah of lithium and 400W of solar ; however , that could be upgraded to 400Ah and 800W . The van also came with a Projecta PM300 power management system that included a 2000W inverter , which could be upgraded to 3000W . Ultimately , it would depend on your needs but if it were me , I ’ d go for the upgrades . Buy once , cry once , as they say .
In the new-look Grenade , I saw a solid van with a great deal of promise at a very good price . I reckon plenty of customers would view the unique ideas on show in this van favourably .
