Volkswagen's new sub-brand Scout revealed: hard-core SUV and pickup truck to be launched in 2024, purely electric drive

Volkswagen recently announced the launch plan of the new brand Scout, and the first model is expected to be launched in the summer of 2024. This new brand aims to provide consumers with a new driving experience.

Recent reports indicate that the Scout brand will launch a cool SUV and a powerful pickup truck. According to previously released teaser images, both models display unique design concepts and are significantly different from Volkswagen's existing product line. This will bring new choices to consumers and let’s look forward to the launch of these exciting new vehicles.

The design of this new car perfectly blends retro elements with modern technology, paying tribute to the classic 1978 Scout model. Its body lines are simple and bright, and it adopts the popular square shape and large-size wheels, showing a strong off-road style. At the same time, the latest technological elements are incorporated into the body to provide drivers with a more convenient driving experience. This car inherits the tradition of the Scout model, but incorporates modern elements to make it more fashionable and practical. Regardless of the power system, it is reported that the first model of the Scout brand will be built on a pure electric platform. It is expected to be equipped with a high-performance 3-motor or 4-motor system to meet the needs of different consumers. Volkswagen said in a statement that the brand's models have undergone a new research and development process, with research and development costs of up to 450 million euros for the two first models. In addition, in order to support the production of this brand, Volkswagen also plans to build a new factory in Columbia, South Carolina, USA. The factory is expected to invest US$2 billion and is expected to be put into operation in 2025. Its initial planned annual production capacity is 250,000 vehicles.
