Tesla, Rivian , and Polestar are rethinking the business of car sales.

But Scout Motors , backed by Volkswagen , wants to sell its electric vehicles directly to consumers.

The company says it will launch 25 brick-and-mortar “ Scout Workshops ” and Scout Studios ” around the country in the next five years .

Scout Motors has opened online reservations for their new Terra and Traveler vehicles that debuted last week .

Dealerships currently manage most of the customer data and relationships, including financing, in the current model.

Scout CEO: “We want a brand that you can have data trust and customer trust”.
