My biggest suggestion is to design the vehicle from the go to be supply Chain constraint resistant.
An electric vehicle is going to have some proprietary tech, that's inevitable, but if you follow the K.I.S.S. design mentality for the rest of the vehicle, you save on cost, and ultimately make a more reliable vehicle.
An example would be using radar and cameras for lane keep and automatic cruise control. If you use some exotic tech like LIDAR you are asking for technical struggles, supply issues, or even software difficulty.
Another great way to get good tech is to partner with technology companies already doing the work. Comma.ai for instance is doing amazing work in self driving.
Scout was always a versatile brand. It was so versatile because it was simple, and reliable.
