Scout Motors reports that 85% of reservations for its Terra pickup and Traveler SUV favor extended-range electric powertrains, as buyers prioritize long range and flexibility over fully electric options.

Scout Motors’ plan to sell extended-range electric trucks directly to consumers faces a legal challenge in Colorado, where dealers argue EREVs blur EV definitions and violate franchise laws, potentially reshaping direct sales rules.

Scout Motors has logged 130,000 reservations for its new Terra and Traveler SUVs, with more than 80% of buyers choosing range-extended versions that include a gas-powered generator. The trend highlights Americans’ continued caution toward all-electric trucks.
