Rivian vs Scout

[Christopher1000]

How do you think the Scout Terra (extended range e+gas) will do compared to the R1? Very similar looks, Scout is more Retro and has the gas generator option. Volkswagen owed and thus a significant technology influence from Rivian.

Don’t think Scout will actually make it to market.

At least not at the low price their are advertising.

Not to mention they can only tow like 2000lbs which is not nearly enough for most of us that do tow.

If Ford ends up actually making an EV Bronco, the Scout is toast.

I echo everyone else in the thought that Scout probably isn't going to happen.

I don’t necessarily disagree but the factory is being built (slowly).

If* they come to market, I’m only interested in the BEV version and how it compares to whatever Gen of Rivian at that time and whether VW dealers will be service centers.

Why would you say that? Some believe the extended range vehicles will be more desirable in America than regular EVs? Ram has the Ram Rev coming out this year (700 miles!)

But Ford sucks these days. Failure after failure. I wouldn't trust them with another EV after the Lightening failures?

Most people don't tow with EVs, but at least with a gas option you wouldn't get stuck in the middle of no where or unable to finish a trip because no chargers?
