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.
Volkswagen Is Pouring Millions More Into Solid-State Battery Development

This is good news!
But at the same time we have no idea who the battery manufacturer is. @Jamie@ScoutMotors when can you drop the initials of the company?
Volkswagen has its own battery subsidiary called PowerCo. They are currently building another factory in Canada to support the North American market.

$2k isn’t far off from other aftermarket bumpers.
But the winch option design is…. uh… unique. Definitely changes your approach angle.
Ah. Your profile says Fortescue Fish and Wildlife Management so I guess I’m confused.
Ohhh i put that as my location. Its a huge swamp that i fish.
Confirmed what the press release you posted said?
Doesn't confirm anything regarding Scout.
there are so many different versions of this meme and every single time I see it at work I laugh out loud (This is very applicable to me).

And it sure is fun to beat a Porsche Taycan from 0-60MPH off the line in an American-made pickup truck that costs way less (and offers the same range!)
Record Setter! 2025 Porsche Taycan Turbo GT Weissach Sets New 0–60-MPH Mark
The 2025 Porsche Taycan Turbo GT Weissach is the first car we’ve ever tested to hit 60 mph in less than 2.0 seconds—and the Turbo GT is no slouch, either!
"The new 2025 Porsche Taycan Turbo GT Weissach launches from 0 to 60 mph in just 1.89 seconds (2.10 seconds without our standard 1 foot of rollout). That’s 0.05 second quicker (with rollout; 0.04 without) than the second-quickest car we ever tested, a slightly heavier non-Weissach Taycan Turbo GT, and 0.18 second quicker than our previous 0–60 champ, a pre-production Tesla Model S Plaid, which hit the mark in only 2.07 seconds. (That latter figure, if you can believe it, was a disappointment to Tesla; the quickest production Model S Plaid we’ve tested needed 2.24 seconds.)"
Im not even sure if the Gen 2 Quad can pull that off.
Hard to argue with that. Great move. Someone needs a raise.
I was talking about the Taycan most people buy! Not the Weissach edition! The base Taycan achieves 0-60 mph in 4.5 seconds, and the 4S model does it in 3.5 seconds, all with Launch Control.Record Setter! 2025 Porsche Taycan Turbo GT Weissach Sets New 0–60-MPH Mark
