  • 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.

    CYURE GOES TO NATIONALS!!! Yay!!!

    Given the weight and importance of structural integrity, I wouldn't say that this will be super easy to just remove from the vehicle by the typical owner. We have to wait and see how the production version turns out.

    Solar Tonneau option

    The issue for all car manufacturers is that the solar panels would have to widthstand tremendous abuse: mechanical automatic car washes, 120 heat and -30 cold, piles of snow building up, ice, slush, road salt, and on and on. As the panels degrade, they are less effective as well. Plus...

    Because you also mentioned subsidies being gone in the same post. It's all good. :D

    Even playing field in what way? We subsidze oil and gas and water and corn and on and on.

    Scout Color Poll #1

    Hi Susan, welcome to the Scout Community. Our color, materials, and finish (CMF) team is a great crew that draws inspiration from some of the retro colors and explores modern versions. Back when the original Scouts were produced, automotive paints were largely single-stage, and things have...

    Scout Traveler and Terra Photo Collections and Wallpapers

    The concept vehicles have the ability to adjust the light temperature. That's why they haven't been totally consistent in photos (plus they don't photograph well all the time). Our design team is pushing to make them as warm as possible.

    Scout Motors at Harvester Homecoming?

    So to roughly break it down... We have only two fully hand built concept vehicles that look most similar to a production vehicle. Because they are hand-built they are still somewhat fragile. Beyond that we have numerous test mules, but since we aren't stamping sheetmetal yet, these are...

    Scout Pricing and State Rebate Programs

    I said you *could* install one. :D Obviously, we engineer a vehicle to a certain standard, including the parts we put on it. At some point, if you replace those parts with something we didn't design or modify it to an extreme we can't warranty, then you take that risk. But nearly everyone who...

    Scout Pricing and State Rebate Programs

    I don't think we would cancel a reservation just because what you want isn't available. It is still early for me to know the exact customer flows yet. Let's see as we get closer.

    Scout Pricing and State Rebate Programs

    To answer the question about deferring your order until you can get the configuration you want, that is the plan. But if you want to be first on the block, you might have to compromise on that front. There are a lot of details regarding ordering that are still being worked on, so let's see how...

    Scout Pricing and State Rebate Programs

    It is worth pointing out that any manufacturer that is launching a new vehicle (let alone two) in a brand new factory that has never built anything yet will likely start out slowly to ensure quality and with slightly more limited offerings at the start. Just want to set expectations...

    CYURE GOES TO NATIONALS!!! Yay!!!

    Always loved that the UX team did that. The screen can obviously support multiple styles of "gauges" and information. Let's see what the final version looks like.

    Scout Motors at Harvester Homecoming?

    Both concept vehicles are currently undergoing refitting with scheduled changes and are out of commission for a number of weeks. So we won't make it this year.
