That being said, probably don't read too much in NMC's "better performance in cold climates" as automatically meaning that Harvester variants, likely using LFP, will have poor cold climate performance. Harvesters having an onboard ICE engine could be a bit of a secret weapon; ICE engines are an excellent source of heat that could be used to condition/maintain battery pack temperatures.

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.

Sorry for filling it up with BMW news lol. But they are the only ones that are being pretty interesting at the moment. And everything else in the news is about companies failing, Tesla dealerships being vandalized, EV Federal Tax Credit *possibly* going away, which I think Scout Motors would be pretty transparent with us if it was on the verge of going away since they are transparent with us on other issues.

Budget car?
Mercedes-Benz Officially Confirms It's Going to Build a Smaller G-Class SUV
It's official: Mercedes-Benz has once and for all confirmed that a smaller, more affordable G-Class is on the way. The carmaker revealed the news in a lengthy release tied to its latest presentation to investors, in which it detailed the brand’s future — and also committed to a design language overhaul that will do away with the current split in appearance between its ICE and electric vehicles.
The latest powertrain reports and rumors suggest the little G will be an electric-only affair.
More affordable? Like $150,000? Or $60,000? Whats affordable to Mercedes when talking about the G-Wagon? lol.
“Heart of Joy” though? Brings to mind the Titanic and Celine Dion…lol.
Trust me it’s not BMW news lol. But it is coming from Press.BMW.

This is awesome. Hoping SM jumps in once they start selling. The idea of reserving a charger based on travel/arrival time is AWESOME. Even if it’s a few cents more per kw that definitely helps eliminate range anxiety. Now it’s hoping they lock down the most popular and heaviest used routes to serve drivers. This is great newsTrust me it’s not BMW news lol. But it is coming from Press.BMW.

This is one of those vehicles that is so ugly it's beautiful.
I absolutely adore it. I would get one in a heartbeat if it was a reasonable price
Ill take 2 lol. I would never drive a ram. I know too many people that have had issues with new ones and older ones.
I just need to sell my M3, and sell of all my nvidia stock that I have.

NVIDIA is getting heavy into the automotive industry, you may want to hang onto that stock.
They might be Scouts chip suppliers. Unless Scout uses with who ever Rivian uses. Im hanging on to my possession for a long time. I don't plan on selling my stocks unless its a big emergency.
RIVIAN uses NVIDIA believe it or not. Just learned that.
Volvo has also recently expanded it's long-standing collaboration with NVIDA.
