  • 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.

    Purchasing original sketches, drawings, and samples

    Totally agree on selling originals. Would love to have them, but figured maybe signed limited production high quality lithographs or prints would be excellent! Need some wall art for the shop!

    Scout Supply Merchandise Live

    Merchandise for purchase. Just think it would be cool to have a large embroidered image of some sort on the back of the jackets or something more than just the logo. I’m sure it’ll come closer to launch.

    Purchasing original sketches, drawings, and samples

    I saw a post the other day showing some of the drawings of the design and it made me think I’d really love to have some of this stuff. What’s the chance people could buy (or maybe it’s included for first year members in the purchase) some of this stuff? Original hand drawings, samples shown at...

    Post Reveal Suggestions

    @oldgeeksguide, I appreciate the thoughts and you’ve kinda convinced me with your last message of the validity. @Harris005 good idea. Camp mode could work for that though I suppose?

    Ideas for Scout Engineers

    I guess I’m not explaining it well. There is no “taping” involved really. It’s no different than a gas vehicle. All modern gas vehicles require you to press the brake to turn it on. Or even older vehicles that required the clutch to be in. Same principal. You literally just have to press the...

    Ideas for Scout Engineers

    The issue with this is it’s just not practical/feasible due to the complexity and cost. As an automotive engineer, I understand why manufacturers go to packages. The cost to maintain complex options is just too high and results in worse quality every time. I’m fully prepared to accept that I...

    Post Reveal Suggestions

    I get it the feeling/concern. I felt that way before I owned an EV that did it. You still tell the vehicle when to turn on and off by using the brake pedal. It’s the same way as a gas vehicle where you push the brake so you can press the start button, but it just turns it on for you and you just...

    Ideas for Scout Engineers

    Yeah, you just tap the brake to turn it on. No different than having to push the brake before pushing to start button, but just the brake turns it on. It seems a little weird if you have never used it before and just think about it, but it’s extremely intuitive and effficient. I guess I...

    Post Reveal Suggestions

    That’s why I haven’t responded after lurking here for 2 years or whatever it’s been, every time I thought of something I figured you had it covered. I will say in my experience as a calibrator, we are in the vehicles a lot and see stuff others don’t. Having an internal way for people to point...
