  • 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.

    Which car companies survive (or, the three elements of quality)

    The three elements of quality: 1. The product has the features customers want. 2. Those features work reliably. 3. When they don't work, service is responsive. This is exactly how to do #3 right...

    Do You Want Your Scout To Have A Hands-Free Driving System?

    Yes. Autonomous vehicles are already in commercial use, and the point at which the technology will be available for personal ownership is close. As soon as that happens (and but for a tiny niche of collectibles), cars that are unable to become autonomous will be functionally obsolete. Insurance...

    Suggestion: Autonomous Driving Mode

    Volvo recently got this right with their EX90, where they said something to the effect of "This thing has all the hardware it needs for L4/L5 autonomy whenever the software is ready." That's what I'd like to see from Scout. It creates a lot of brand trust if they know the tech is changing and...

    Ideas for Scout Engineers

    Short-time lurker, first time poster... 100% this post! It would be wonderful... - To have a statement from the brand on their values and vision for longevity. - To say something to the effect of "We understand people think we subscribe to planned obsolescence, but we don't. We'll make it so...
