  • 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.

    Concern about the complexity and cost of repairs/maintenance for EREV

    That could also be a difference maker between EV only and EREV that I hadn't thought of. I wonder what the warranty will look like between the two. I assume they'll have the same battery warranty length/miles but I guess we'll see, and then what the warranty is like on the Harvester components...

    Yep, there were $10-$15k markups on them at the dealers near me. I've seen one on the road so far, so hopefully not many people bought them with those markups. They do have some decent discounts now, but still the range seems too low to me, especially at the price point they're at.

    The gas tank needs to be bigger on the Harvester models

    That's still how I think it will be: "In most normal uses you should run out of fuel before you run out of battery." That to me means the generator will try and keep the battery at a steady percentage until it runs out of gas, which would be around 350 miles of driving, then it would have to use...

    Are you OK with Scout vehicles starting under $60K?

    A friend of mine likes the Audi dealer on Carlisle Pike in Mechanicsburg and got his from there. That's where I usually get my Tesla inspected as well.

    The gas tank needs to be bigger on the Harvester models

    How I read it is, if you have 100% battery and a full tank of gas it will do the 500 miles. So maybe it would be electric only to say 50% and go 75 miles on electric only. Then the gas range extender kicks in to keep it around 50% of charge for the next 350 miles and if it runs out of gas and...

    Show us your holiday spirit and/or Xmas tree

    Hey, I went down there the other day as well 😂

    That's the real problem with Tesla FSD, it's pretty good and ahead of a lot of things on the market but it's not real FSD. If they'd just have called it something else with it being supervised, I don't think it would really be an issue.

    Ideas for the revamps and the Travelers Sister!

    I think for me, I'd like to see a version closer to the $60k base price. I'm sure if the current concepts were released as actual vehicles they would be near the top end of the trim level. I know they like to make them look as good as possible, but it would be nice to see how it would look in...

    This new version will probably still come out before the RAM version.

    FB find of the day

    Sort of silver, maybe with a hint of green to me.

    Same for me, would be cool if there was a watch face for the Apple watch.

    What is one feature you hope Scout will include that has not yet been shown?

    I would hope so, ideally as standard, hopefully with an auto fold on lock option as well.

    What is one feature you hope Scout will include that has not yet been shown?

    I’m hoping for this as well, might be easier for my dogs, especially if they don’t put ceiling or b pillar fan vents in. You can raise the seats like that in an F-150 as well so I’m hoping Scout will too.

    Trying to understand size, especially interior.

    The thread with comparisons is https://community.scoutmotors.com/threads/size-comparison.1302/post-17260 there's others on there as well but that post is against the F-150.

    Exactly how I feel about this color, I'd like to see it on other cars as it's pretty unique and interesting looking, but I wouldn't get it for myself.
