SANTA MONICA, Calif., Oct. 30, 2024/PRNewswire / -- TrueCar, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRUE) the most trusted automotive digital marketplace, today announced INEOS Automotive is providing an exclusive $3,000offer to TrueCar military members and their families on the purchase of its INEOS Grenadier, a rugged and purpose-built 4x4.

In the last year alone, more than 800kusers visited the TrueCar Military site.

The Grenadier was devised by Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who identified a gap in the market for a hard-working 4X4 that combined best-in-class off-road capability with modern on-road driving refinement for people who enjoy the experience and adventure of being behind the wheel.

"We are thrilled to announce our partnership with INEOS," said Jantoon Reigersman, CEO of TrueCar. "Similar to TrueCar, INEOS is an innovator that isn't afraid to disrupt norms to make progress. With the Grenadier, they bring to market a 4x4 that opens a world of possibilities for those with the adventurous spirit - a perfect match for many of our military members."

Both TrueCar, through its "DriventoDrive" disabled veteran vehicle giveaway and INEOS, through its "Walking with the Wounded" program, have long and dedicated histories of supporting military members and their families. This collaboration brings the aggressive off-road excitement of the new Grenadier with the seamless online shopping process powered by TrueCar.

"Our partnership with INEOS marks a significant step forward in our mission to support military members and families," said Reigersman. "By providing exclusive deals and savings through trusted financial institutions, we are empowering these heroes to make informed and affordable car-buying decisions."
