MUNICH -- Volkswagen Group may partner with Foxconn to revive the Scout brand in the U.S.
VW is in talks with Foxconn for the Taiwanese contract manufacturer to build Scout vehicles, Automotive News sister publication Automobilwoche has learned from VW sources.
Foxconn, best known as the manufacturer of the Apple iPhone, started manufacturing Lordstown's Endurance pickups in September after buying the company's Ohio facility bought by Lordstown from General Motors in 2019.
VW said in May it plans to revive the long dormant Scout off-road nameplate that it acquired last year when its heavy-truck brand merged with Navistar.
