  • 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.

    I thought he would say the same but he said after being in it and playing with those scroll wheels and the screen that’s it was fine.

    I've definitely got some interest in the R3X as well, but only if they give me some buttons.

    He asked about when the R3X is expected and the kid behind the desk said yeah that’s the one he is waiting for too. He said it’s going...

    There is a very long two lane road in front of the factory. They let you take it for 30 minutes on your own. So we went down 15...

    More positive feedback on those scroll wheels - they are all the rage for sure. Great design by Rivian to improve the user experience...

    This was a much better experience than when I test drove the R1S. That time they just handed me the keys and left and I didn’t even...

    It’s wild to me that this nonsense continues. Scout Motors never said “deliveries in 2027.” They have consistently said "Initial...

    I agree with pretty much everything you are saying, and the R1 could make you "spoilt" for sure, but the "luxury" part of the R1 is...

    I absolutely agree that I want them to be massive success as well and by way propel the company to be one of the leading EV automakers...

    Plus maybe BloNo will finally get a Trader Joe’s and maybe even a Costco with all these Rivian employees moving to the area.
