Article: Why More People Are Ordering The Hybrid Scout Harvester (EREV) Than The Electric One

I realized after ordering, that honestly I can adjust my driving patterns and go to the full EV without Harvester. I changed my order after a few months because of that realization.

Edit: this is borne out in this site's reservation stats here:

82.6% are for the Harvester EREV!

Why More People Are Ordering The Hybrid Scout Than The Electric One

If 2024 was the “Year of the Hybrid,” then I think it’s fair to say that the next ten years in the United States will be the “Decade of the EREV.”

No one knows what the battery sizes and efficiency stats will be. Until we get real numbers, people will hedge W the harvester, ive reserved the harvester - if the range is only 150miles before you dip into the gas generator then I would switch my order To EV only because that’s insufficient. What for more information and we will see how this shakes out.

I think 150 EV is not enough I was hoping more of 350 and extender addition of 150 to give you the 500 mile range.. But like you stated we need to see what comes out of scout and that will determine how many reservations turn into actual orders.

They’ve been pretty clear in several communications that it’s 150 EV, 350 Harvester. Sure, it could change, but there’s no way they can stick a gas engine and tank on a vehicle with the full size 350 mile battery. That’s just not going to happen.

Right now we have a beautiful partner who looks to do everything right but it hasn't cooked or raised kids yet this baby needs to come to life and start cooking to see and have realtime data. And scout needs to get build sheets and actual offerings out to reservation holders and be nice to enlighten by scout when those milestones will occur. What are the timeframes for design, order / build codes , Options and trims my hope is 6 months when is factory slated to come online are they currently on schedule. When can the loyal scout reservationist expect to see information and will there be availability to see feel and touch the vehicle of choice before ordering.
