It’s cool, but I think they should go more ranch, like I want to walk into a Scout Studio/Workshop, and hear the bell ring from the door, and the record scratch.

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.
Which is right up my alley. Always liked this look and to me this represents Scout
One thing that really doesn’t look like Scout, is those seats along the bar, those look so uncomfortable.
To the OP, I’m on our 3 EV brand.
Audi, Rivian, and now BMW.
Only one brand needed a ton of warranty work, one brand hasn’t been to the dealership since purchase.
Take a guess which one was the worst offender.
I’m really looking forward to the Scout and I sincerely hope VAG puts their best foot forward and builds a quality product.

Yeah. I’ll agree. That’s a designer who saw them remodeled from a bunch of design blocks and grabbed them for looks
@Jamie@ScoutMotors what's the progress with the Studios and Workshops? How long after deliveries will we start to see workshops going up?
Studios and workshops will start construction before vehicle deliveries. All in good time. 
That is VERY encouraging!Studios and workshops will start construction before vehicle deliveries. All in good time.
Some of us here are could not be happier about the VW / Rivian Joint Venture. Scout could not have chosen a better partner! Despite all of your negative energy around bashing Rivian (just scrolling through your posts seems to demonstrate your axe has been ground down to a stubby little nub), I'm guessing you will be pleasantly surprised, or maybe even delighted by what the JV delivers with these new trucks:
Wassym Bensaid, co-CEO of the joint venture, said: “We’re excited to have entered into this joint venture, and welcome colleagues from both Rivian and Volkswagen Group to our new venture. The aim of the joint venture is to speed up innovation, increase scale and lower the cost of owning an EV for millions of people around the world. I’m hugely impressed by the work done already. While the demonstrator vehicle only scratches the surface of what is possible, it’s incredibly exciting to see what is possible when a new OEM and a legacy automaker work closely together.”
Volkswagen Group plans to invest up to $5.8 billion in Rivian and the joint venture by 2027. An initial investment of $1 billion in the form of a convertible note has already been made. At closing of the Joint Venture, Volkswagen Group will invest about $1.3 billion as consideration for background IP licenses and a 50% equity stake in the joint venture. These investments also balance part of lower future costs identified during the technical feasibility tests and the sharing of costs for the inclusion of selected Volkswagen MEB models. The remaining investment of up to $3.5 billion is expected to come in the form of equity, convertible notes, and debt at future dates and based on clearly defined milestones. Further investments are tied to clear operational, technical, and financial milestones. The joint venture will operate as an independent company.
Through the partnership, Volkswagen Group aims to strengthen consumer benefits surrounding innovation, scalable platform and cost savings potential for both sides, as well as enhancing its R&D cost efficiency and thus sustainably reduce overall expenditure in this area.
