Scout Motors, a brand of the Volkswagen Group, is challenging the traditional car sales model in the United States by selling its electric vehicles directly to consumers starting in 2027. This move has sparked strong negative reactions from dealerships, which are organizing legal actions, claiming they are harmed and that it violates state franchise laws. However, Scout is confident in winning these legal challenges, emphasizing consumer choice and freedom. The legal battle is expected to be long and complex, with an uncertain outcome. Scout's strategy resembles that of Tesla, which has already faced similar controversies.
