Scout Range-Extender May Restore Tow Power, CEO Hints at Solutions
TL;DR Summary
Scout Motors says its Terra pickup and Traveler SUV, both using the Harvester range extender, were thought to incur a 50% tow-rating drop with the extender. CEO Scott Keogh says the company has a “tool kit” and potential solutions to address the issue, but won’t disclose details yet. Production is expected around 2028, and reservations show most buyers prefer the extender option over a fully electric version.
