Electric off-road platform for recreational and utility markets
Next-gen electric off-road performance.
SAQAR is focused on bringing the Scout 1-seater and Scout 2-seater into production, targeting leisure, recreational and off-road buyers in scalable markets.
From proof of concept to production-ready Scout
The product evolution
The existing prototype validated the core vehicle architecture, performance baseline and off-road dynamics. Scout V2 turns that proof of concept into a cleaner production model with improved ergonomics, integrated electric drivetrain and commercial launch readiness.
01
Concept validated
Architecture, dynamics and real-world desert performance demonstrated.
02
V2 upgrades
Improved packaging, adjustable ergonomics and production-focused design.
03
Commercial readiness
Pre-production units, supply chain and launch pathway.
Launch Scout. Build revenue. Then expand the platform.
Scout first. Platform later.
The immediate funding round is intentionally narrow: commercialise Scout, validate demand, establish production capability and build investor confidence before expanding into wider UTV and industrial applications.
Scout 1-seater
Lightweight electric buggy for enthusiasts, trail riders and early adopters.
Scout 2-seater
Broader recreational model for couples, resorts and adventure operators.
Future UTV platform
Ranch, utility, security and industrial applications after Scout traction.
A focused electric alternative to conventional ICE side‑by‑sides
Why it wins
⚡
Electric-first performance
Instant torque, lower noise and fewer moving parts than petrol-powered sport platforms.
▣
Lightweight buggy format
Simpler open-frame architecture supporting a focused, lower-complexity launch.
★
Distinctive visual appeal
Strong demo, social media and resort appeal for leisure buyers and operators.
◆
Production logic
Assembly strategy designed to support cost control, supplier access and efficient distribution.
↗
Platform upside
Scout creates market feedback, brand credibility and data before future UTV variants.
⛽
Fuel savings comparison
Electric operation offers a clear contrast to petrol side-by-side running costs.
