"Scout was established in the early 1960s and helped develop numerous SUV body styles that are still relevant to this day. The Scout...had gone head-to-head with some of the most recognizable names in the sector, competing with original generation Ford Bronco, Jeep, and Land Rover. Scout stopped production in 1980 but will make a return with production set to begin in 2026. 250,000 units are expected to be sold annually in the United States."
