Hey, off-road enthusiasts and electric vehicle fans! Have you heard the latest buzz from Scout Motors Inc.? They're the new kid on the block, under the Volkswagen Group umbrella, and they're making waves in the electric off-roading world.

But there's more– the iconic Scout name is back, but this time, it's all about electric SUVs and trucks, set to hit the roads in 2026. And it gets better! We might have just got a sneak peek at their new model names.

Scout Motors

Scout Motors has been on a trademarking spree, securing a whopping 41 new names this year alone, all under the category of automobiles, parts, and accessories. But what's really turning heads are the potential names for their upcoming electric beasts.

Scout Motors

Among the contenders, four names are stealing the spotlight: Scout Hauler, Scout Reaper, Tellus, and Travelstar XL. And let's not forget Scout Spirit, a nod to the brand's heritage. Each name has its own flavor, hinting at the unique features and capabilities we can expect from these electric adventurers.

The Name Game

The Hauler and Reaper are totally new to the Scout family. While Hauler could be the perfect fit for their upcoming electric truck, Reaper is a bit of a mystery but resonates with the brand's historical connections to the International Harvester. As for Tellus, it's not just a cool name but also a Latin term for Earth – fitting for a brand looking to conquer the planet with electric power.

Then there's Travelstar XL, potentially hinting at a larger, more spacious variant of a classic Scout model. Scout Spirit seems like a tribute to the brand's past, especially the 'Spirit of 76' special edition.

Beyond Names: The Power and Promise of Scout Motors

What's driving the excitement isn't just the names but the promise of what these vehicles will deliver. Scout Motors is all about blending the nostalgia of the iconic Scout brand with cutting-edge electric vehicle technology. And with the Volkswagen Group's backing, expectations are sky-high.

What's Next for Scout Motors?

While we're playing the guessing game with the names, we know one thing for sure: Scout Motors is all into making a big splash in the electric off-roader market. With their CEO hinting at a design preview in the near future, we're on the edge of our seats, waiting to see what these electrified trailblazers will look like.

Scout Motors

So, whether you're an old-school Scout fan or a new-age EV enthusiast, keep your eyes peeled. Scout Motors is about to bring a whole new electric thrill to off-roading. And who knows, maybe the next big thing in electric trucks and SUVs will be a Scout Hauler or a Scout Reaper!
