2026 Scout SUV & Pickup shapes shown before imminent debut

[OneForTheRoad]

Guessing the range extender will add a lot of cost. Hopefully that drives everyone to the BEV. It's time to get rid of gasoline.

From a harm reduction standpoint, I don't hate the EREV concept. It eliminates gas use for the vast majority of trips while also hopefully being able to get those stuck on range anxiety or their need to tow to get an EV. In the future I would hope it goes away once we have solid state batteries that make the last of the arguments null and void, but I don't see us getting to that point for probably a decade.

But I do hope the pure EV is cheaper and they don't pull something like making the EREV have such a smaller battery pack that its actually cheaper.

Well, it might be starting a bit later, but I think I found some info. Just searching for scout to see if any websites went early with their reporting and I found something. The little page description part of the search came up with some info from a site called greencarreports.com. If you google that site with scout motors you can see what I mean. SPOILER!It looks like the SUV will be called the Traveler and the pickup the Terra. Starting at a bit under $60,000. One says both will offer a range extender, but I don't know if that means thats the only option or if you can get a pure EV or an EREV. The pickup will have a standard 5.5 ft bed and two 120V and one 240V outlets. It says something about the bed having a carrier for a 35 inch spare. 350 miles of range and 500 miles with the range extender.

I see they've learned from Elmo, about being fashionably late. Steeerike one.

Now the video says starts s00n

They clearly didnt have enough streaming watchers so they are delaying to get to 10K. They only had 4K at the scheduled time.

Moved from 4:00 to 4:30 and now s00n.... Going to give to 5 more min.

Running ten minutes late already.
In YouTube it says “taking inspiration from the original Scout vehicles from 1961-1980”. Strange to resurrect a brand dead for 44 years that only lived for 19 years.

If that’s the reason then they are stupid. Other brands start at the set time and if people miss it they can go back to the video

Both are body on frame with 4 wheel drive and a solid rear axle.

Was Rivian on-time with their R2/R3 event?

Scout are not established and this is their first real public event - so best to make a good impression.

I’m almost positive it was started on time, gathered the entire family and made them watch ?

 

[DuoRivian]

They are going to run out of sunlight at this rate!

Almost an hour late.. Elon must be proud.
