It was originally seen as a competitor to the Jeep CJ and, after 1965, to the Ford Bronco.

— The Scout, a one-time competitor to Ford Broncos and Jeeps that was last sold more than four decades ago, is being resurrected by Volkswagen as a line of all-electric trucks and SUVs.Scout will become its own separate brand offering off-highway-oriented electric trucks and SUVs in North America.

The Wrangler is now the core model of the Jeep brand, considered to be one of the world’s most valuable passenger vehicle brands.
