  • 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.

    What kind of tech do you expect enabled in the car or interface?

    You would have to pry my comma3x from my cold dead hands. Been following the Rivian port development hoping it translates to the scout.

    Questions about the Harvester

    Too bad we don't get a follow up question. I agree that as long as there is juice in the battery you don't lose performance, the issue only occurs once the battery hits the low lim and the generator can't keep up.

    Questions about the Harvester

    As long as the generator can generate more electricity than the motors are consuming, this is not necessarily true. Instinctivly it makes sense that a small generator will not be able to keep up, however these comments from CES seem to indicate Scout has a plan: At CES 2025, Scout Motors CEO...

    Suggestion: Autonomous Driving Mode

    You’ve created a snake eating its tail. If no one uses FSD type features, there will be no feedback and no data to analyze, and it will never improve. Just because you don’t want to be part of the test group doesn’t mean there shouldn’t be a test group. I highly utilize all ADAS features because...

    What kind of tech do you expect enabled in the car or interface?

    I doubt any manufacturer sets out to be compatible with a 3rd party ADAS; in fact, that is counterproductive since they want to sell high-level ADAS as a subscription. The best we can hope for is that it happens by accident. Since the Scout will be based on Rivian, I've been keeping an eye on...

    Too much AI

    The problem with BC is fords software, the vehicle is perfectly capable. I’ve gone over 4 hours hands free before (west Texas). Here are some trends of a more difficult drive (Houston to BR)...

    Too much AI

    Big difference between hands free interstate and full on urban self driving. Hands free interstate is ready for the masses, urban driving is still a huge work in progress. However if no one uses the urban driving features it will never get better.

    Too much AI

    After using a Comna3X for a year, going without it would be like having to walk out in the snow to use an outhouse instead of indoor plumbing.

    Obviously Tesla is very good. I use a Comma3x daily. I also have Ford BlueCruise which could be good, but needs a little more polish before I can trust it.

    Too much AI

    Have you experienced a good hands free system yet? It will blow you away how much more rested and alert you are. I actually feel safer in hands-free mode because of how it allows me to take in a broader amount of information around me since the car handles staying in the lane and keeping...

    Too much AI

    No OTAs is simply not possible in an EV, they are too software driven. As for the self driving, hopefully they make it a package you can opt out of to keep cost down for those that want bare bones. I've already said I'll cancel my reservation if I can't get hands-free interstate driving. Part...

    Questions about the Harvester

    This is better than I expected and way better than my personal experience (MachE and TMY). I should probably also reword my state to say "in 70mph zones" rather than "at 70mph". In a 70 zone most people are driving 78-82 (In Texas anyways). In the west there are 80 and even 85mph zones, which...

    Questions about the Harvester

    I will believe it can do that at 70mph when it happens. How many EVs have you road tripped?

    Questions about the Harvester

    Keep in mind the ranges quoted are usually accurate around 35mph. So a 400 mile range EV will only go about 200-220 miles at interstate speeds.

    Questions about the Harvester

    Something that could tow a 18-foot 3500lb load 200 miles at freeway speeds on 100% EV is a $250K vehicle with current technology. Better batteries are coming, but in the near future, you will have to adjust your expectations.
