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.
Probably as soon as order forms go out to build the scouts, they will close reservations.
R2 is still taking my reservations even though they are delivering cars.

Looks like Scout will be in Massachusetts in October.
IMO marketing dollars wasted. This is something you do when you have cars that are available to buy right now. Instead you're going to lose a huge chunk of those expensive impressions to time, and time kills all deals. Imagine someone getting excited about Scout at the event only to learn that deliveries are 2 years away and they have to now step to the back of a 150,000 person preorder line. Nope.

Also the official automotive sponsor of anything kind of requires loading up the event with a bunch of service vehicles, not the same 2 show cars just painted in a new color.

To be clear, I'm all for Scout sponsoring this event...3 years from now.

May be a bit early but if not events like this what events? Car shows bring out car enthusiasts which in theory doesn’t expand their presence so what type of event? Every event as of late is sponsorship with nature based gatherings with music and/or similar entertainment. Just wonder what is a better way to spend money but make outdoor enthusiasts aware of the vehicles?
