The INEOS Grenadier is a formidable 4×4 off-roader that has the attention of off-road enthusiasts and overlanders alike. As much as its attributes are highly revered, there is one nuance that limits its potential capability and performance. The factory air intake is located on the lower front fender, meaning it is susceptible to drawing in water, dust particles, or any kind of debris, which could likely render your engine dead. Prevention is and has always been better than cure. Installing a snorkel is a worthy and long-term investment that will keep your car on the road. This is why you need a snorkel.

A snorkel is an external air intake system that relocates the engine’s air intake from the front fender to a roof-level height. The question that begs is how advantageous is that?
A snorkel protects the engine during water crossings, not only when off-roading, but maybe due to heavy rains, a road leading to your home could be flooded. If water gets sucked into your engine, cylinder heads, pistons, and rods will be damaged. Relocating the air intake to a roof height level takes away the danger or risk of water being ingested into the engine.

If there is one enemy any car engine dislikes is dust; that is why you have an air filter. Driving on dusty roads in Kajiado or even the northern parts of Kenya clogs the air filter, blocking clean air from reaching the engine, resulting in engine overheating. A snorkel reduces dirt entering the air filter by drawing in cleaner air from a roof height level, above the dusty cloud.
