Yes but haven’t they had less than stellar results from some of those engines? Plus, they are streamlining their lineup for cost efficiency. I don’t disagree with the video when they mention that engineering and testing costs for a “new” brand are yet another hurdle. It could make perfect sense...
Interesting video. I’m getting more excited as time approaches but my biggest hope is they create a vehicle contemporary for when it’s actually released and not for now or when they first announced. Technology is changing quickly and this vehicle will be a big investment for me that I hope to...
Yes I’m by far not the most engineering or tech savvy of future Scout buyer but I’m getting increasingly concerned that our Scouts will be outdated by the time delivery arrives. We’ve seen such a whipsaw in the electric market of late yet the world is obviously headed that way. I hope Scout is...

Yes 🙌 thank you for posing this question. I was hoping to do the same. Let’s hope we start getting some real specs for these vehicles this year so people can make plans.
💯 agree!! Having dogs and hauling them & lots of longer things would be so much easier & more enjoyable. That kind of thoughtfulness for the end user demographic would make the Traveller even more attractive!!
I’m not sure if everyone has already seen this but it was just announced in the last 24-48hrs that Scout has decided to locate its HQ in the Plaza Midwood area of CLT.
Im a CLT resident and was shocked to hear this since manufacturing is in SC.
Anyway perhaps there’s a back story here I’m...
Agree that the south will bake a car. I’d love a power screen that could be utilized in the hot & sunnier months to help block the light & heat. My Macan has one & I use it often. It’s also great in the winter when it’s cold & the warmth of sunshine is welcome when you wanna slide it back...
Update: video of the CBS piece is now available:
