    Low range - is this a concern?

    You're not wrong. There's no "need." For most purposes, 1000 ft-lb of torque is going to be plenty. But...well, there are people who don't want to stop at "plenty." Without the ability to change the gear ratios in the axles/differentials, and without any kind of transfer case, EVs tend to be as...

    Low range - is this a concern?

    You certainly won't be able to cram a Marlin in there anywhere. This is, apparently, the axle. Technically it's a solid axle and has a lockable differential, but with the motor housing built into the axle, it's likely there's zero chance of increasing the gear ratio inside of that axle...

    NACS Charge Port Location

    It also seems like they didn't consider the 12.5" wide tire + mount hanging off the back of the Traveler. That is going to push the port position pretty far from the Supercharger. It's not clear to me if it'll be an actual issue, but it's not anywhere near as close as the vehicles that were...

    What vehicle are you replacing / trading in for Scout EV?

    If the final production model is skinnier than the concept vehicle, we might replace our Mustang Mach-E with the Scout Traveler. By 2028, we should have around 120,000-150,000 miles on the Mustang and could be ready to replace it.

    Width -- 5" wider than Raptor? (Correction: 4.4" narrower than Raptor)

    Its track width seems to be about 87.5 inches. Given the complete lack of reliable information about the dimensions other than what seemed like an aspirational diagram, I decided to estimate it by using an object of known size and extrapolating from that to the track width (body width is a bit...

    Dimensions Size [Updated]: Scout TRAVELER SUV vs. R1S, Hummer, Bronco, Jeep Wrangler, 4Runner, Kia EV9, Defender

    Given the complete lack of reliable information about the dimensions other than what seemed like an aspirational diagram, I decided to estimate it by using an object of known size and extrapolating from that to the track width (body width is a bit more). The tires on the show vehicle are...

    Width -- 5" wider than Raptor? (Correction: 4.4" narrower than Raptor)

    The original Scout was 70" wide. This is nearly two feet wider. That stopped me cold. I don't need another oversized vehicle. The Lightning is big enough as it is, and if the diagram is accurate, this thing is a foot wider.
