I’ve had a flat bottom wheel and I actually like it equally if not better and I’m a free spin back to center user and it always worked fine and I had no issues
What is one feature you hope Scout will include that has not yet been shown?

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.
Good to hear. I have never had one.
You could do what I do and rely on left-hand palm action. I tend to steer a lot that way.
Yeah, I think a flat bottom would be an easier transition maybe? Definitely looks less disruptive to the steering habits I've formed over 30 years! I think it's the flat top AND flat bottom that makes it seem like it will be a strange experience.
There's been very little I've disliked about the designs (or been concerned with might be more accurate), so since this pops into my brain when I look at the interiors figured I'd throw it out into the universe to see what happens. lol
I believe humans adapt to these things faster than many responses would lead one to believe. I am mostly concerned that the body on frame design with a full BEV battery is off-road durable, the range is 300 mi/charge or greater, all wheel drive/full time 4x4 like a Land Cruiser is standard, able to power tools via 120/240 outlets, able to charge from as many sources as possible, and a maintenance schedule that is so infrequent it will leave all of us scratching our heads, and happy.
Yeah, the range, durability/dependability, tech + physical, styling, etc. is what attracted me to the cars (Traveler specifically) and until they tell us different I assume that hasn't changed. Which is why I have to nitpick about things like steering wheel shape. Hahaha
1. Power folding mirrors (to fit into the garage easier)
2. Flat folding rear seats
3. No idle start/stop
4. 360 cameras
5. heated and AC seats (not critical)
6. able to control AC from App. Not just turn on but control the AC settings. (not critical)
7. Decent Audio system/speakers

Just realized that there is no need for idol stop start in an electric car. Obviously this will be my first one.
You are in good company. There are many of us new to EV. which one did you reserve?
We should have the option with the harvester to go 100% EV with zero engine recharge? Feature might come in handy if the I.C.E. generator does introduce a little noise and vibration when tuning on/off. I can always hear my neighbors I.C.E. cars drive by in the early mornings; but, don't really hear the EVs other than a very faint "UFO" sound (two Tesla and Hyundai EVs).
Yes it looks like we will. It’s either the videos from 2025 CES or the Jay Lenos Garqge episode (I forget which) but they showed 3 modes. EV only, Harvester only or let the car decide what to do.
Welcome aboard and thanks for sharing your thoughts
