  • 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.

    You did a multi vehicle auto-start/stop fuel economy test today? Wow. I would love to see your data.

    What are you driving until release?

    I know the 2018 Subaru Crosstrek has had a few recalls but all and all a pretty reliable vehicle, many lasting 200,000 miles. Seems like you finally got yours broke in at 90,000. I hope it lasts for you.

    What feature(s) do you hope that Scout does NOT include?

    That factory-installed Vehicle Tracking System (VTS) is just horrible. All because of a satellite security system failure. :cautious:

    While I think this is an interesting color, I have seen many painted like this after-market I don't think I could live with this in the long haul. Or, even a three year lease. :)

    Off-topic stuff…

    There are a lot of 2026 Cadillac F1 color schemes floating around. I think they will probably stick with a Black & Gold variation. We shall see.

    What feature(s) do you hope that Scout does NOT include?

    Our Ford Maverick Hybrid has a pressurize fuel system so they have an electric operated fuel door. However, they also supply an emergency pull hidden up in the wheel well to open the fuel door. I know you said "gas cap", so maybe different issue. Just FYI.

    That compass is a very nice touch. Lets hope it stays in ALL levels of the Scout vehicles.

    Outlets

    This rather nice post by Jamie@ScoutMotors should give you the information you are looking for. It is a rather long post. Terra outlet information is near the end of the post. Under "A Tool for Today"...

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

    Sounds like we need a mode indicator in the cluster or center-stack screen for safety reasons. Or have your preferred regen setup in your saved driver setup.

    How did you find out about the new Scouts?

    In November of 2024 I was in Michigan visiting with some work colleagues from the automotive research laboratory I retired from after 41 years. They were all talking about this new Scout Innovation Center in Novi where I had lived for 28 years. When I returned to Florida, I looked up Scout and...
