The wheelbase and length are comparable to other vehicles that offer a 3rd row option (even if it could just be a two seater for kids/smaller adults). I hope there will be a 3rd row option for those of us who want it!

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.
Parents had a station wagon with the reversed 3rd row seating. Sure you could get in fairly easily (getting out required someone else to open the gate). With rare exceptions - OMG it was not enjoyable. 3rd row bounce was bad, not having any warning before stuff happened was sickening. Funny part, some people are saying the same thing about EV's because they don't get the same audio clues and it messes with you.
I don't know what you are driving now. But, I have heard that getting the hang of one peddle driving in an EV can make a passenger a little green around the gills.
I have exactly 1 memory of a reverse seat station wagon.
And Brian Regan summed it up excellently.
I do not recall how many years we had that particular station wagon - and by then I think most of my older brother's and sisters were in college anyway - so I recall sleeping in the back (with the seat down) more than riding in that reversed seat. I really only have one memory of riding in it, and it is not something that is forum safe to repeat. Just to say, you felt like you could get away with literally anything when you were that far away from the old people in the front.
That’s a scream. The rear seat in dad’s ‘62 scout 80 faced backwards, mounted right up against the bulkhead. And with the home made chuck box in the back two growing boys didn’t have much foot room.
Tesla offered rear-facing seats in the Model S until 2018.
