Extra, Extra....Read All About It!

  • From all of us at Scout Motors, welcome to the Scout Community! We created this community to provide Scout vehicle owners, enthusiasts, and curiosity seekers with a place to engage in discussion, suggestions, stories, and connections. Supportive communities are sometimes hard to find, but we're determined to turn this into one.

    Additionally, Scout Motors wants to hear your feedback and speak directly to the rabid community of owners as unique as America. We'll use the Scout Community to deliver news and information on events and launch updates directly to the group. Although the start of production is anticipated in 2026, many new developments and milestones will occur in the interim. We plan to share them with you on this site and look for your feedback and suggestions.

    How will the Scout Community be run? Think of it this way: this place is your favorite local hangout. We want you to enjoy the atmosphere, talk to people who share similar interests, request and receive advice, and generally have an enjoyable time. The Scout Community should be a highlight of your day. We want you to tell stories, share photos, spread your knowledge, and tell us how Scout can deliver great products and experiences. Along the way, Scout Motors will share our journey to production with you.

    Scout is all about respect. We respect our heritage. We respect the land and outdoors. We respect each other. Every person should feel safe, included, and welcomed in the Scout Community. Being kind and courteous to the other forum members is non-negotiable. Friendly debates are welcomed and often produce great outcomes, but we don't want things to get too rowdy. Please take a moment to consider what you post, especially if you think it may insult others. We'll do our best to encourage friendly discourse and to keep the discussions flowing.

    So, welcome to the Scout Community! We encourage you to check back regularly as we plan to engage our members, share teasers, and participate in discussions. The world needs Scouts™. Let's get going.


    We are Scout Motors.
Looks like sodium will also be needed for future EVs as well. I’m definitely no scientist and don’t know how this works. Just would be great if we can source all EV battery materials here in the US to provide American workers jobs and know it’s entirely sourced and made here.
I think we can do that, without the government involving itself.
 
Agreed. It’s pretty dang cool. I know there are millions that would label it absolute sacrilege though.
I’d love to go charge in that thing just to see the look on people’s faces when you go to plug it in.
And drag it next to an original just to see some tears from your rearview mirror 🤣

This isn't the typical camo used to hide vehicle design lines, features and to confuse cameras. This seems more just to be cute.

I’d say not so much camo as it is a marking/plublicity stunt to get your attention. Most people would mistake the new R2’s as R1’s and not think twice. Seeing the wrap actually makes us in the driving world more aware of them and it becomes advertising. It’s a clever idea. I thinks Scouts are unique enough to stand out on their own 😀
