I was curious how VW had the Scout name - glad the article addressed it.

Yeah, VW and Navistar flirted for years. Even back in 2011 it was a common topic, at Navistar, that VW was coming in

Love to see it. I expect them no earlier than 2030, though

But if they invest in North America manufacturing that may help the VW nameplates and launch the Scout.

You think that building a new factory is going to expedite the launch?

Yes, it would expedite things. I'm not guessing here.

Feel free to take your victory lap if they're selling Scouts in 2026

And it's still been appallingly slow. Now add the launch of a new brand...

True. It's incredible how difficult it has been for trad auto to get going...

Completely agree. Much prefer this to GM's hollow "30 EVs by 2025" promise

For what it's worth, Musk has been on record saying VW is doing the most. He say

Their new ID.Buzz (electric VW Bus) looks very compelling:

"Offroading" and "electric" are two words that shouldn't be combined right now.
