Scout Traveler Concept with the Bench Seat - First Look

  • 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.
I was wrong. We just looked at the pictures and it’s there. @Jamie@ScoutMotors what is that?
This is clearly the ruggedized version of Scout Key Fob. Props to Rivian for dropping a caribiner-like key Fob, but Scout has clearly taken it to the next level. The button on the left is an electronic lock release. When closed, the Scout Caribiner can be used with recovery straps and hold up to 15,000 lbs. of static weight. It also contains a Garmin InReach mini with Satellite connectivity, so if you suddenly find yourself being attacked by a bear in a canyon with no cell phone reception, you can still call for aid, and it contains 50 grams of bear-spray that can be fired by holding the left & right buttons simultaneously. It integrates seamlessly with the roof satellite antennae, allowing users to have redundant satellite communications when boondocking in the backcountry. Small upcharge for the ruggedized version though.

Thanks!
 
  • Haha
Reactions: bwdavis7 and R1TVT
Ventilation was shown as far back as the reveal and was also shown for rear seats though I’m sure that is an extra
I'm just worried the bench-seat will be relegated to work-truck status with crap options like many other manufacturers do.

@Jamie@ScoutMotors posted elsewhere that "This is the remote for the winch. It is a one-off piece made for the concept vehicle."

I was told there’s a spare air/oxygenator if you get submerged and has 15 minutes of breathing time
