American Axle & Manufacturing Holdings, Inc. (AAM), announced it has secured an agreement with Scout Motors to supply front electric drive units (EDUs) and rear e-Beam axles for the much-anticipated launch of the all-new electric Traveler SUV and Terra pickup truck.
Both the Scout Traveler SUV and Scout Terra pickup truck will be built on a body-on-frame chassis and configurable with 100 percent battery electric or gasoline fueled range-extended energy systems to give customers the confidence they need to electrify on their terms.
“We are honored to support the rebirth of the iconic Scout brand and play a significant role in these important vehicle launches with AAM’s award-winning electric drive technology,” said AAM Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, David C. Dauch. “Additionally, Scout and AAM share a commitment to American design, engineering and innovation with both companies having a strong presence in the U.S.”
Scout Motors is accepting reservations now, with initial production of the Traveler and Terra vehicles targeted to begin in 2027.
