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.
Well, EREV may currently have more reservations I wouldn’t be too terribly concerned about it as reservations still aren’t guaranteed that people will convert them to orders and when they start sending out, the order forms were request or whatever you wanna call them people still have the chance to choose all Electric and if we assume that they send them out in batches, it would be slowly building an amount of vehicles that they would just be setting aside if all Electric buyers have to keep waiting, but have already locked in their order
I'm happy with this decision. I volunteer as tribute for testing. that way everyone else gets better vehicles.
Anyone heard of MOLL Automatisierung? According to Google Maps, they now have a corporate office on-site at the plant in Blythewood, SC.
I'm assuming they're the ones in charge of setting up the production line and robots.

I would volunteer to do testing, and showing off, in the harsh New Mexico enviornment
Seeing the pictures of the mostly-finished training center got me wondering more about where it was, so I did a little digging. In the picture, it's a decently large building, but it's tiny compared to the plant!
Currently, everywhere except for where the red labels are. Retention ponds may require a snorkel.
I heard theres a point in the course where you jump over 77. They call it the battery impact test with live participants.

There have been so many forum volunteers to drive Scouts that Scout negotiated with the NHTSA to forego formal crash testing if the live participants survive the jump. Should save Scout a lot of money in regulatory BS.
I’ve thought the same thing. The modern processing I saw at BMW makes me believe they could all but run any of the 4 variations with little to no change over other than the parts bins
Until AI allows them to take over then there is a whole army waiting to take us out. Where is Sarah Connor when you need her

If you really want to get your truck early, buy an EREV Terra (or Traveler) with a promise to race it in the 2028 Mint 400 alongside the 1976 Scout Terra (link to recent story). That should get your Scout onto the production line early, since the race is in March. You will of course have to spec all the premium off-road options ($$$), but I am sure that one of you was planning to do that anyway.
For those unaware, the Mint 400 has a "Stock Production Truck Full <Size>" class. It is for "Vehicles built from a full sized 2 or 4 wheel drive utility or SUV type vehicle." and "Vehicle must be marketed as full size." In 2026 there are only three participants, so there isn't a lot of competition. Of course that competition is Ford Racing, Ford Performance, and Chevy Performance. But it is a friendly competition (the event purse is $0), so no worries, right?
I'm sure if you ask here you can get volunteers for additional drivers and a pit crew.
I Think scout might be using two lines in total. One for Terra and one for Traveler. Unless they are using one line for both. But i know uncle scotty said that because its a very slight change from erev to ev that they would both be installed on one line.
This says even less than what I thought was being reported. It did not even say that the EREV will delivered before the EV - just that the EREV deliveries are not expected to be delayed significantly.
Hard to say what they are actually planning on production lines. They could easily be focusing on getting one line up and running, with planned parallel additions as they ramp up capacity. Given these are mostly common platform - a single line might get production started quickest, with dedicated lines added as demand mix is more concrete. Getting all models on the road will firm up demand rates.

It is on the north end of the property and grading just started in the last month. You can see "Scout Mountain" above upper-right. It is about 60ft tall.
