Towing Range with Scout - Harvester EREV vs. Full-EV and Traveler vs. Terra

[MadGreek]

Quoted range is 350 miles for the full-EV and 500 miles for the Harvester EREV, so what are we estimating would be the towing range in terms of % reduction per 1,000 lbs let's say? Also, do we think there will be a towing range between the Traveler and Terra?

Hoping our Rivian owners who've towed with the R1S / R1T can chime in on this one.

I have towed occasionally with my Tesla MYP. It just over doubled the watts/mile. Normal usage is 290-310watts/mile and when I was towing, about 620-650w/m. This is concurrent with power usage reports from all of my EV owning friends as well as magazine testing. I was towing a 3000lbs ski boat.

Based on Rivian and Lightning reports the impact on range is is more due to aero than weight. Since it doesn’t appear Scout is going for an overly dramatic aerodynamic shape (Lucid style), I’m wondering if aero will be less of a concern here. Plus, in order to reach 350 miles of range in a platform this upright it’s going to have to have about a 150kwh battery.
