Scout Motors has shifted its strategy for the upcoming Terra Truck and Terrain SUV, responding to consumer preference for gas engines over electric options. Despite initial plans for a fully electric lineup, the company will now offer a range-extended version with a liquid-fuel generator, as over 80% of 130,000 reservations indicate demand for this alternative. Market trends show a significant decline in interest for electric vehicles, prompting major automakers to reconsider their strategies and suggesting that additional powertrain options could enhance Scout's market appeal.
