Volkswagen Plans Off-Road Electric SUV & Pickup Truck Under Scout Brand – CleanTechnica
Volkswagen says it will decide this week to create a new company in the US to sell battery-electric vehicles under the long disused Scout brand. The first two vehicles would be a pickup truck and an SUV designed specifically for off-road use. The company’s supervisory board is expected to approve the plan on May 11, sources familiar with the company’s plans have told TechCrunch. The pickup truck will be approximately the size of the newly announced Ford Maverick, which in turn is about the size of the Amarok pickup truck Volkswagen sells in other markets.
