  • 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.

    Removable Doors

    I'm coming from an old jeep and being able to remove the doors and top is one of my favorite things of all time, way better than just any old convertible. It seems like this isn't the direction Scout is going but man would it be awesome.

    Diesel Range Extender option please.

    I also would much rather prefer a small displacement diesel generator to gas. I see a few people saying gas has more power but only because of their RPM capability. If you look to the commercial industry, you'll hardly see any gas generators and it's for good reason. Yes, gas has a higher...

    Make optional equipment truly optional, and not trim level dependent.

    You're right, it just comes down to how expensive the trim lockout is. If the consumer has to spend $2K to upgrade from the base trim level just to unlock the option for the range extender for like an additional $5k, that's understandable. I'm talking about cases like the Jeep Wrangler where a...

    Base Model option lockout avoidance.

    Totally on the same page. I want mechanical cloth seats and rubber floor mats, I dearly hope I don’t need to spend an additional $10k for leather and integrated navigation and extra stuff just to have to pay $5k MORE for the range extender or lockers and whatnot. That would probably be a deal...

    Make optional equipment truly optional, and not trim level dependent.

    I’m happy to see more people sharing the same sentiment, while I definitely hope they allow for true comprehensive customization for ordering, I do really hope they just take this into consideration when creating the different trim levels and actually separate the functional equipment from the...

    Make optional equipment truly optional, and not trim level dependent.

    PLEASE allow the equipment to be truly option based and not based on trim levels. Too often manufacturers gatekeep the practical equipment to more luxurious trim levels, which justify a huge price increase, but remove the vehicle from the accessibility of the consumers that could maybe justify...
