I would be interested in a rig that looked like that if it were ICE. As it stands, EV range is not sufficient for my use case. Like Rivian, the Scout looks like it’s targeted at lifestyle overlanders, and not people who primarily live and play in rural areas.

Renderings mean nothing. It’s merely artwork. I don’t think anyone knows what it will look like yet. Look at what all the Bronco renderings that were circulating. Very few were even close.

Sadly, it appears that Volkswagen has planned for the Scout to be 100% EV. Gas engine options would be nice. I am nostalgic for them as I have owned 2 in the past.

Except this one actually looks like it's based off the official sketch drawing released by VW:

That bad boy makes me homesick for my ‘80 Scout II. With that said, I’ve yet to be convinced that electrics are ready for “prime time” for the way I drive (though it’d make a slick short haul DD). If the range goes up and the price doesn’t take off like a Saturn 5 I’d definitely look at one, Gotta admit though that “all electric” and “off road” cause me a bit of concern. Muddy trails with deep water holes +electricity seems to be a recipe for “interesting” adventures?. (But hey, I’m an old guy-I still think the public got screwed when modern diesels began being push from the market. My Ram EcoD 4wd finished a 1500 mile trip last week with a Hand Calculated 31.4 mpg’s.)

Volkswagen cooking up schemes, soon you will have to pay a small fee everytime you want to open your Scout EV door, they have already conditioned the new generation for these pay to play schemes.

“Philip K. Dick - Ubik” said:
The door refused to open. It said, “Five cents, please.”
He searched his pockets. No more coins; nothing. “I’ll pay you tomorrow,” he told the door. Again he tried the knob. Again it remained locked tight. “What I pay you,” he informed it, “is in the nature of a gratuity; I don’t have to pay you.”
“I think otherwise,” the door said. “Look in the purchase contract you signed when you bought this conapt.”
In his desk drawer he found the contract; since signing it he had found it necessary to refer to the document many times. Sure enough; payment to his door for opening and shutting constituted a mandatory fee. Not a tip.
“You discover I’m right,” the door said. It sounded smug.
From the drawer beside the sink Joe Chip got a stainless steel knife; with it he began systematically to unscrew the bolt assembly of his apt’s money-gulping door.
“I’ll sue you,” the door said as the first screw fell out.
Joe Chip said, “I’ve never been sued by a door. But I guess I can live through it.

BMW tried that subscription BS, to allow you to use option capability already installed, and baked into the price of the vehicle. That didn't go over so well.
