We'll Get Our First Look At Scout's Body-On-Frame EV This Summer

We first learned about Volkswagen’s plans to revive the International Harvester Scout as a new EV brand named Scout Motors back in May 2022, when the VW subsidiary showed off some side-view sketches and announced its intentions to produce the new pickup and SUV starting in 2026. Now, thanks to a new brand-building video, we know that we’ll get our first look at the Scouts this summer.

The newly released YouTube teaser is mostly brand-building fluff, a montage of people doing outdoorsy things with the help of vintage Scouts as a gruff narrator says things like “scouts shun the uncomfortable, ignore uncertainty, laugh at difficult” and “there is a scout in all of us, it’s time to let it fly.” Cheesy as it is, the video fits in with earlier reports that Scout wants to be a wholly American brand, and it’s certainly not as annoying as what we’ve seen from the Big 3. At the very end of the video, text comes on screen that says “revealing summer 2024,” which is the first indication we’ve gotten from the brand as to when the new Scout would actually be shown.
