New Scout Traveler Concept Added - Mountainside Theme

  • 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.
I said not half-bad, also maybe not half-good? SOMEONE was asking for bold, non-grey, white, or black color options! If @cyure can lobby for PBY, why not SFG! ;) Might look better on it's own ; that is a lot of green with the boat. Maybe a light roof. It would appeal to the pacific surfer crowd.

The white roof here is the finishing touch that elevates the vibe for the color I think.
 
Seagram green sounds good tho
Seagram Green is just a slightly different shade (or two shades). LOL

So, I keep half writing responses here (sorry, life and all that), then it gets deleted/lost, and then I restart again, etc.

But the wanting to chime in on this so Scout can see the vibes.

Many have already said this, but reiterating it because reasons. The wood in the new concepts is still too busy. And not like "eh, its ok, but I'd not call it my favorite" sort of feelings, more like "I'll actively avoid it" sorts of feelings. I'm getting 70's plaid couch covered in plastic vibes.

I do like the black/brown/grey color. And I liked seeing it without the tire carrier. And I am interested in seeing a concept with the stock wheel/tire size at some point.

Keeping it short so I actually finish it :P.
 
We now have another Scout Traveler concept alongside our existing Traveler and Terra pickup truck concepts. The theme for this new Traveler is called Mountainside. Whereas our other Traveler showcases what an off-road-equipped Scout can look like, Mountainside shows a more urban and clean approach. It shows the Traveler for the first time without a rear tire carrier, no roof bars, a panoramic glass roof, 22" wheels, brown/black paint, and a stunning leather, houndstooth, tweed, and wood-accented interior. You can read more about it on Scout Stories HERE.

There is a lot to like here, and I am glad to see they are exploring a more refined model in addition to the more pure off-road version. This is more what I would likely purchase for my wife. That said, not sure about the wood used in the interior trim. maybe it is just the images, but it reminds me more of OSB than walnut!

I’m really curious what that wood trim looks like in person.

I would like to see a concept with the stock wheel/tire size as well. Unfortunately, we will likely have to wait for the configuration app to see this. Hopefully that is still on schedule and will be available before the end of the year.

I think a number of us are feeling the same and wonder how it looks in person. That said I never liked Audi and BMW burled woods-just seems out of place in a car, at least to me

One can only hope and the suggestion from @THil08 to mirror to large tv monitor makes it that much more exciting

I really like the “Mountainside” a lot - a personal favorite (hope it will be a selection?). Wondering if it helps solve the “too-wide-for-me” setup that may appear on other Traveler models - I live near a long narrow road with delivery vehicles and trucks that will cream extended side mirrors. So, does the Mountainside allow a bit narrower extended full width? (Or digital interior-placed side mirrors available as an option down the road to narrow down the total width just a bit?)
I also hope they narrow the width down a bit. Too wide!
