We have said publicly that we have more reservations for EREV than we do for BEV. That said, the final production sequence still needs to be nailed down before we make any official announcements on rollout timing. As most of you know, we started development of our BEV first. EREV is no small project, given the additional complexity, additional parts and software involved. Meaning? Development is still moving, so while we work to go to market, timing will be everything. Obviously, if we have a strong reservation response to EREV, we want to try and offer that sooner than later. But BEV will still be offered as well. More details will come as we get closer to market launch.

Well business is business and money needs to be made. I couldn’t imagine delaying BEV reservations terribly long cause wouldn’t it make more sense to focus on reservations over backstock? Since there is a high likelihood of a large portion of reservations, not flipping to order orders.

So, is the article wrong or not official? Either way, it’s good to see Scout on the road sooner than later. I’ll keep holding out for the Traveler Electrall for me and and get the Terra Harvester for business a little sooner.

Also for those that are undecided I hope we get specs around the same time so it’s easy to compare the two to help with decision making.

Thanks Jamie .

My first thought was actually this as well. That if anything, the EREV was likely behind the BEV in terms of when it started development. But with the bulk of reservations being harvester, it makes sense.

But it sounds like the article isn't based on a new interview then?

Absolutely, I hope this is true. That even with one model available before the others, that they'll release capabilities, prices, etc of both the harvester and BEV options.

Otherwise you'd have to lock in without knowing which thing best suits your needs.

The article said Scott was in San Francisco. Was he there today? I think this is new.

And yes we need to be able to compare features and cost and I know they cant say exactly but are we looking at a difference in release of weeks or months or what?

It’s like when I ask the cost of something and someone says they don’t have an exact cost. My question is always $50, $500 or $5000. They usually provide a ballpark. So if we can even get a ballpark of how long between the two that would be helpful.
