There are very few 4×4 SUVs that have what it takes to become capable adventure camper vans. One of them is the INEOS Grenadier, which Alabama-based Storyteller Overland has transformed into a customized camping rig that any all-terrain adventurer would want to hop into.
Called the Grand Bohemian, this global expedition vehicle is one of the finest builds to come out of Storyteller’s foundry. The company notes that the Grand Bohemian is not a traditional Class RV, though it does fit within RV licensing and classification. At the same time, the micro-camper’s body and construction allow it to go places most other RVs simply can’t.

Unless you have the Grenadier in the Bohemian avatar, the most you can do with it when you’re planning an overnight stay in it is to outfit it with a rooftop tent. With the Grand Bohemian, the SUV platform finds a new life. Besides its daily driver image, the Grenadier is designed for long stays in the untrodden paths you have reached in your ride. For the same, the RVIA-certified Grand Bohemian is a fully integrated camping rig meant for overlanding with a comfortable interior and beefed-up exterior. The visible difference is the Alu-Cab pop-top roof tent, which adds a sleeping loft to the camper along with standing height inside the vehicle. This difference is complemented by the convenient living environment created inside the Grenadier.
To be showcased for the first time to the adventurer community at the Overland Expo So-Cal, the Grand Bohemian is powered by a BMW 3.0L engine, which features an 8-speed ZF automatic transmission providing the power and precision to go anywhere. When you reach the destination, you can pull out an installed 270-degree shadow awning and expand the outdoor living space for your convenience.
When you climb into the back of the vehicle, after your long day, you will be confronted by a thoughtfully crafted interior featuring warm textures. The space with the galley and living area is designed for a good time and long conversations. The rare seats of the Grenadier are replaced with a full galley and a lounge here: the kitchen is provided with an induction cooktop, a fridge and freezer combo, a fold-down prep and dining table, and a sink. The living area opposite it comprises an L-shaped leather bench, which stretches out to double as a sleeping space for one.
The Storyteller Overland has outfitted the Grand Bohemian with a 5.4-kilowatt-hour battery, 30-amp shore power, and up to 400 watts of solar panels. The camper is backed up by a 2,000W inverter and features a gas-powered hydronic system to manage the heat and hot water. The Bohemian has a composting toilet and is provided with 10.5-gallon freshwater tank and a 4-gallon grey water tank. If you are interested, you can reserve your adventure ride for $198,888 now.
