Do we know if production will be Traveler Harvester then Traveler EREV or will they do all Traveler and Terra HarvESTERS first then do all Travelers and Terra EREVS.
I hear timelines of mid 2028 Travelers in driveway and 2030 on Terra. Are those timelines on EREVs only or am going to have to wait past 2030 for a BEV Traveler. It makes no sense for my driving habit to do a EREV that gets 150- miles per charge and 350 miles with the Generator.
Yes! What a great day and Venue at”TheShop”. Really great to see the rides up close, here are some of my observations
•. All the Scout staff were very
yes, the event was great. Fun to see the 2 Scout E Rides and the 12 or so vintage Scouts and their owners outside, and what a gorgeous sunny...
Let’s not forget, with a window that rolls down you could roll it down to put something in the back without having to swing the tire holder out of the way to open up the back. I know my critics will say “just open the side door” to put something in the back. LOL
Having owned a BEV for about a year I feel your pain. All maiden voyages are disconcerting as you don’t know what to expect. Good for you for jumping into the deep end for the BEV. Overall you seemed to be a pretty good sport about it all now. Our first experience with a BEV was about the...
Ok. This all sound (excuse the pun) a little esoteric, all I know is I don’t want it to Sound like a Tesla in reverse. I’m sure when I see the end product I’ll get it….. I don’t get opera either but that doesn’t make it bad. I’m just hoping my BEV can roll off the line b4 2030 with a Kick Ass...
Don’t forget, with a rear tailgate power window you’d be able to drop something into the back area without having to swing the rear tire out of the way.
I wonder if people’s attitude would change with $10’s for a gallon of fuel. Do you remember the gas rationing of the 70’s, you could get 10 gallons if your car license plate ended in an even# AND it was a Monday Wednesday or Friday. Not to mention that there was still a line at the pump. Just...
I agree 100%, Scout has tried to have something for everyone, they should go back to the original vision of only a BEV with a new high Teck battery that gets the mileage up to 450-500 miles.
•Charge anxiety would go away and most EREV reservations would convert to BEV’s.
•Software complexity...
Here is the Quantum Scape article from Inc magazine below

This a great article by inc magazine where VW is discussed in relation to battery production. This might be a stock to watch. Quantum Scape, stock ticker QS. Who knows, I bought Microsoft stock in the 70’s before it was much. Wish I had kept just 50 shares, I’d be a millionaire, over the course...
I agree, I want an EV that will stand the test of time. If battery technology gets to an EV mileage range of 400 to 500 mile most of the EREV demand will evaporate. We have an all electric vehicle now and love it, much to my surprise.
Originally I reserved the Traveler Harvester but the the way I interpreted the marketing information was the BEV was 350 miles on the battery and the generator brought the mileage up to 500+ miles…. I’m thinking 350 plus another 150 for the generator. Later much to my disappointment it was 150...
I think it’s fair to say that Scout Motors is quick to listen and if need be to Pivot to the market, after all they started out as a BEV platform but pivoted to a EREV platform emphasis. My question is, as battery technology continues to go forward at lightning speed are you designing the...
