Last week, Scout selected Columbia, South Carolina as the home for our first production facility. With this $2B investment in US manufacturing, we are creating 4,000 or more permanent jobs and aim to produce more than 200,000 Scouts annually once at full capacity.
In 1960, the original Scout revolutionized what it means to go places. What it means to see the world from the driver’s seat. What started in 1960 comes full circle today. Scout is once again re-imagining the adventures that an off-road vehicle can deliver – only this time, it’s with an all-electric platform. Today, we are closer than ever to putting an important American icon on the road.
This moment is so important not only for Scout Motors, but also for America. After 3 years of supply chain disruptions and unpredictability in manufacturing, this is the moment American ingenuity is being put back into action. As a benefactor of this moment, Scout is proud to join the push to revitalize manufacturing in America.
To our team, get ready. With this decision, Scout further moves from planning to action. There’s no better team to tackle this endeavor than the one sitting at Scout desks right now.
To our South Carolina partners, thank you. We are honored to call the Palmetto State home. We have a bright future ahead, as the future of Scout starts with SC.
To our loyal Scout community, we invite you to join us on our next adventure. Scout has always been the vehicle that takes your family camping and also shows up on the job site every morning. This is not changing. Scout’s versatility remains intact, and America’s love of driving will be revived.
For now, remember: Scouts go first. Scouts go farther. Scouts always come back to lead the way.
