  • 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.

    Resale Value/Depreciation

    ^^^This^^^ I think you're exactly right. In fact, I think Scout has even said the concepts are on a chassis that is not what the production vehicles will have, so I'd put exactly zero stock in what the underside of the concepts looks like as it relates to the finals.

    Now that America has become great, where will Scout Motors rank on this chart?

    Remember how I'm trying not to do a 2 year lease on the EV9? I accidentally ended up at the Kia dealership the other day but they would only go down $835 from MSRP so the payment was still too high. $650/month so I walked, but it's tempting. I test drove it, and it's amazing.

    Self-driving integration with Open Pilot.

    Yeah, it alternates between the plastic sheeting and a personal flotation device cushion from a boat. Customization. If you zoom in you can see it here.

    Self-driving integration with Open Pilot.

    It keeps me alert. That and the fact that there are no brakes at all. Makes things interesting, especially since part of where I plow at the end of my driveway requires me to back out into the road several times. I have to look twice each way to make sure no cars are coming.

    Self-driving integration with Open Pilot.

    Unfortunately, my plow vehicle isn't highway worthy at the moment. Strictly driveway plowing duties.

    Self-driving integration with Open Pilot.

    I would fall into this camp as well, currently. I almost never use cruise control, even on the highway. This discussion does have me thinking though, that if there was a way to have a system that could satisfy those in the self driving camp without it jacking the price up (using existing...

    Self-driving integration with Open Pilot.

    Does Open Pilot use lidar, or just cameras and AI like Tesla? Asking as someone new to the self driving tech, but curious to learn about it

    Interior accent color

    Oh, so maybe Scout shouldn't do the Pierre Cardin interior treatment like AMC in 1972-1973. Too busy? 😂

    What is one feature you hope Scout will include that has not yet been shown?

    The answer is an unsatisfying, it depends on several factors... 1. Battery state of charge when power goes out. 2. Temperature 3. Perhaps most important, what loads are you powering in the house? If you're looking to back up a few outlets, some lighting circuits (especially if LED lights) a...

    What is one feature you hope Scout will include that has not yet been shown?

    Good info here. In addition to the outlets on the Scout itself which can power light loads directly, the V2H capability will involve additional equipment in the form of a more intelligent automatic transfer switch that will allow the Scout battery to power either your whole house through your...

    EV/Gas Scout Terra

    I thought Scout has said 150 miles range on the battery for the Harvester model, then generator extends to a total of 500. Am I mistaken on that?

    Thanks for checking. The tree took the lines down at around 7:00 that evening and the crew was out there working on it all night. They got the power back on at 4:00 AM. The silver lining is that I got some free firewood. The town highway department guys know I burn wood, so when they cut the...
