Hugo Loonam Motors appointed as Ireland’s first Ineos dealer

Orangeworks Automotive, the official importer and distributor for Ineos Automotive in the Republic of Ireland, has appointed Hugo Loonam Motors as the country’s first official Ineos dealer.

Hugo Loonam Motors will offer the full range of Ineos commercial and passenger vehicles from its Co. Offaly base, including the Grenadier station wagon and Quartermaster pick-up.

Both offer a combination of rugged capability, practicality and modern engineering for customers across the agricultural, corporate and private sectors.

Hugo Loonam Motors made its Ineos debut at the Tullamore Show in August, where it showcased the Grenadier N1 5-Seat, the only crew cab-classed vehicle approved by Revenue for sale in Ireland.

Alongside it was the new model year 26 Quartermaster two-seat, the first of its kind in the country, carrying an eight per cent BIK rate that offers a significant tax advantage to qualifying business users, compared with a passenger vehicle. Irish pricing started from €59,995 + VAT.

Every Grenadier and Quartermaster comes with a five-year, unlimited-mileage warranty, five years of AA roadside assistance and a 12-year anti-perforation warranty against rust-through corrosion.

David Bassett, managing director of Orangeworks Automotive, said: “Hugo Loonam Motors is exactly the partner we wanted to bring Ineos to Ireland with.

“They’ve spent more than two decades building trust with customers across the Midlands, and that’s exactly the kind of business we want representing the brand here. This is just the first step. We’re building the Ineos network out across the country, and Tullamore was the right place to start.”

Hugo Loonam, dealer principal at Hugo Loonam Motors, added: “We are delighted to become the first Ineos dealer in Ireland. It’s a fantastic opportunity for us and one that we are excited about. Ineos has built a strong reputation for producing tough, capable and distinctive vehicles.

“We are proud to be part of the Ineos journey from the beginning and can’t wait to get started, introduce the vehicles to our customers and see where this exciting partnership takes us. We look forward to a very successful future together.”

The Ineos range will be on display at the 271 Vans for Business EXPO, which takes place in conjunction with the 2026 CV Workshop EXPO at the RDS Simmonscourt in Dublin from 10th-11th October.
