Did anyone else see them embarrassing them selfs basically saying that Scout is a new Company and that they copied Rivian. It’s very amusing watching people who have zero clue about the History and story behind the OG Scouts and New Scouts. They also tried to explain the EREV system super...
I don’t know if you know that 4-2.6seconds is a standard in the automotive industry at this point. So most companies already know how to optimize price and weight for that timing from 0-60.
I sadly think Rivian is going down fast if VW decides to drop the partnership. They better have one hell of a Super Bowl commercial, same with Scout Motors If they both want to survive especially since Scout isn’t going public anytime soon from what it seems.
Best thing is staying way from the union who will control all of the wages. Thats what killed international was the strikes so they should. Just leave it alone and don't allow the unions.
I can see them Using Bosch since Rivian first had them before they started making them in house. But Magna and ZF being second choice if they don’t go with Bosch.
Probably not since Scout is “independent brand“ from VW. But it might make development on technology and software less difficult since he worked with Rivian and might make the connection stronger with the two brands.
