This is like buying a Mona Lisa with a mustache at a flea market electric pos

It's for dorks, like the new Bronco. I'll stick with my '69. I do love how this will bring the remaining old ones back into modern minds and raise the value, though. I could wrap mine around a tree at this point and break even selling it, considering what I paid. Use to be able to find Scouts very cheap, bought and ran a few for $500 each. Anyone with a bit of oldschool mechanical inclination could work on them and have a decent runner.

There is no way in hell, i would EVER buy a 4-Door wanna be ,that will match my -I phone. I never will have an I Phone or any thing like it and will never spend good money on a Smartphone on wheels, with all that Mickeymouse moviescreen-Bull that will never be a Scout. I stick with my 79 !!! And thats a Fact,Jack !

It much indeed deffo fantastic, has the 4 KLM 3 stroke motor in production next year since 2013. Has much more less weight than the 2028 model with engine delete option. Great news from thanks!

I wonder what engine you could cram in there? There's not much room to modify the engine.

My girlfriend's brother had a white or silver one ,i forget, but he lived a fast life.👀😅😅😅😅😅😅

Pontiac Grand Prix???

Junk you take the name and ruin its reputation with electric because you got money from the democrats green new deal grids not ready this will be a failure

I have a 79 F Body RS but always hated the IROC, No clue why just isn't my style

Wow good

Still enjoy driving my '88 IROC after 36yrs of ownership.

I liked the irocs and still do but my 87 SS Monte Carlo put them all in the rear view mirror in 1/8 mile. Even the 5.7 cars. Don't get me wrong those old cars turned on but so did mine. I was geared much lower but we had a blast street racing.

Wow took about 3 minutes to even start talking about the Camaro.

Stupid idea. BEVs are a step back to 19th century technology. It is failed tech. Methanol fuel cells are the only future.

You found it in the 509 makes feel better.

Proud S2000 owner here. It's truly a unique masterpiece and one of the greatest cars ever made! I love every minute of it and she has given me so much joy these past 8 years and counting Mine is the OG 2000 AP1 finished in GPW with red/black interior 😍Supercharged too

I would have said all EV a year ago, but my gut tells me now that this needs to be a 4 wheel hybrid with a plug and battery pack for 50 miles EV. That way the buyers (and others) are going to want it for the second car and they will get 50 daily miles to drop the kids at school in a cool vehicle and to hit the markets. Rivian, which is infinitely cool, can't manage to sell 50,000 a year, let alone VW's lofty goals of 250k a year. Problem is going to be the 40k number that would make this a winner. They should study what Ford did with the Maverick hybrid, loaded at just under 39 (add a roof and maybe it's 45? in the SUV model), with every option imaginable, and they can't make enough of them. No 10-15k battery pack, lol.

Lost my 63 scout in "The Divorce". I don't see it's legacy here. 😕

You left out Dodge, Plymouth, Chrysler and AMC at 0:50

My opinion is if it's an EV not going over to well, why mess with Scott and destroy an iconic brand

Even a hybrid would be smarter.

Going electric right now is not going to be profitable. They may want to rethink this and revive it as a 4 or 6 cylinder internal combustion vehicle. But they won't.

Ive got a stock 83 lg4 5speed with 65K on the clock. I did simple bolt on and 1.6rs to the motor and exhaust with full tubular suspension. the car feels really crazy. 3rd gear chirps and roll on burn outs in 1st. its probably like 6.5 to 60 but its low end monster.

I owened five VW's in my time, Super Beatle was the best, still have it! Electric Scout in my future, who know's, l trust Volkswagen!🙂👍. Thank's for the info. Steve

I wish they would have kept making the body style of the 2G Eclipse it is my favorite car ever!! I think it's sad that everyone just because they have families they all have to have SUVs and they give up on sports cars. I will never give up on my DSM or my JDM cars they are my favorite. I actually don't like all these SUVs and I do see them everywhere so I see why Mitsubishi did that 😢😭 💔 what's tuners we're always have our eclipse and talons in the true lovers of these cars will never let them die

Awesome video I love it thank you for this. I'm a huge Mitsubishi Eclipse eagle talon lover as I have had five in my lifetime and currently have a 99 Spyder I am building a 4G 63 all wheel drive out of. They are great cars they are awesome to drive fun to tune and just beautiful works of art. It's about time I found a video of these cars and all the positive aspects of them..thank u

Think should be criminal! This is soooooooo wrong!

some of the actors you showed are Canadian

If they deliver a new MR2 that looks like this gold one, I will be getting my 5th MR2. Has to be 2000 pounds or less and reasonably priced. Oh. And they have to make enough that you can actually buy one without greedy dealer mark ups meaning they need to be on the lot. Please Toyota!

I have a eagle talon 2g a 1994 by month and year

I don't want an electric scout. Give me a 6 or 8 cylinder any day.

If you were a good driver you could go high 13s with a 87-93 foxbody that's on par with most muscle cars from 060-70s

Nothing like a shit-roc and reeboks

Evolved into a bigger piece of crap as the years dragged on for those dumpster fires

i mean i built a AWD big turbo 3G so its not completely lost

I love my 1998 GSX !

Great video, currently own 3 Corrado’s and have owned 5 so far, high enjoyed your review.

I will always love the third gen Camaro, and especially the Z28 and IROC-Z.

WOOAH Teku Acceleracers Eclipse

I’ll take a Porsche 911 instead

MR2 was My First Sports Car (MK1) I will deffo get the new one !

Side terminal battery is a pain in the ars!

The 1987 Buick Grand National GNX is legendary and yes the company McLaren had a significant hand in the development of this magnificent 80's monster, but sadly Bruce McLaren passed away years earlier in 1970. He was doing what he loved to do, testing his Can-Am race car on a track (Goodwood Circuit) in England on June 2nd, 1970.

I love my 67 ih 1200 but I have no aspirations of owning a new scout EV made by VW if it was a navistar version with a small diesel that could be really efficient and be able to tow or off road for long distances

from the side it looks like a knock off of lotus evora

If VW brings back the Scout and uses electric motors all that is going to do is piss off real Scout Loyalist!!!!!!! Who in the hell wants an off road vehicle with a extension cord hanging on it, where are you going to plug it in in the forest or desert!! This is one of the dumbest things I have ever heard!!! Has anyone at VW every really talked to anyone who is a Scout Loyalist?!! What is going to happen to this electric off loader when it is 3ft+ in a mud and water hole and stuck for hours or even days before it can be rescued 10 miles off the closest road?!!!!!

Scoulbus

Stop it.

S7 engine? LS7 you mean.

I want the typhoon, I used to own a Jimmy
