  • 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.

    Suggestion: Autonomous Driving Mode

    Agreed. They do come on “sometimes” but it’s unclear what level of deceleration / slowing triggers them. This needs to be addressed for all EVs.

    Suggestion: Autonomous Driving Mode

    Most EVs come with regenerative braking to get maximum distance and the Scout likely will too. Are you recommending that Scout should remove regenerative braking?

    Suggestion: Autonomous Driving Mode

    My Tesla does not do that nor does my Mercedes GLE or the BMW I had before the Mercedes. Not sure what you were experiencing. What you described sounds more like someone texting and not paying attention than the stop and go adaptive cruise features I’ve used on my cars. They are very graceful...

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

    I know the scout isn’t designed as a luxury SUV, but I have Mercedes GLE SUV and I love the massaging, heated and ventilated front seats. I’d also hope it has Lane Centering Assist “LCA” and Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go so it can be used in traffic. Lastly, I hope the SUV seats lay...

    Suggestion: Autonomous Driving Mode

    I own a Tesla and love the FSD (13.2.2). I would settle for highway adaptive cruise control with stop and go and Lane Centering Assist “LCA”. Lane Keep Assist “LKA” (bouncing you between the lines) and not having stop and go adaptive cruise (doesn’t work below 20MPH) would bum me out. We have...

    Harvester Talk: Q&A

    @Jamie@ScoutMotors - does the Scout with the Harvester have 350 miles of range + 150 with the Harvester OR is is 150 EV range and you need the Harvester to get the other 350?

    Scout Color Poll #1

    Have the Ford Bronco Wildtrak in Eruption Green aka Dark Green and it really looks tough. My other cars are silver/grey but I chose Green because it compliments the rugged style and it stands out. Same will be true for my new Scout SUV I hope. ✌?
