  • 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.

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

    Welcome! While I doubt the Terra will have the storage in the side rails like the RAM pickups, I think that storage option would be incredible and I would definitely add that option to my Terra it if they offered it. There must be a good reason that other truck companies don't offer this, and I...

    What accessories would the supplier park install?

    Here are the things I would buy from the supplier park, if they are not offered by Scout: Professionally installed spray bed liner for the Terra Tonneau cover Adjustable towing hitch Rubber floor mats But, I expect the supplier park to sell lots of other things: Truck bed toolboxes Running...

    Two Reservations

    Yes. Jamie has said one of the other threads that the choice of BEV or Harvester can be decided at order time. The selection on your reservation is so Scout can get an indication of preferences, not a lock-in of the vehicle you want to order.

    Is Die Hard a Christmas Movie?

    I never caught on to this. I don't know if I would call that a good justification for Die Hard being a Christmas movie, but it's a nice nod to the spirit of the movie. BTW - I do consider Die Hard to be a Christmas movie. It just isn't a Hallmark Christmas movie. :LOL:

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

    Are you saying you want a bench seat that has a fold down arm-rest, or that you want something in the center of the seats as an arm rest? Scout has already confirmed they have two options for the front seats: (1) captains chairs with a center console and (2) bench seat with fold down center...

    Is there anything that would make you switch from the BEV to the EREV?

    Same here. After over a year owning and running a BEV I am 100% in the BEV camp and will not go back to gasoline.

    Glad you are still full steam ahead with PBY. Yep, I saw the pictures, they look beautiful. I hope they offer this color, but if they don't I'm sure you will find a way to get PBY, I have faith in you!

    There you go being all logical about things. First you give up on the 35-inch tires because of range concerns. Now you bring up logistics of the backpack. Next you are going to abandon PBY. Who are you, and what have you done with the real @cyure? :LOL: But seriously - I am pretty sure I...

    You need to create a new thread with that in the Suggestion Box: The backpack needs to be sized to fit in the frunk. or The frunk needs to be big enough to store the backpack.

    Financing Options

    If you are concerned, you could talk to your bank or credit union about financing. My bank is always trying to get me to borrow money, I'm sure they would be very helpful if you told them you were looking to finance a new vehicle.

    Jeep Recon

    Nooooo! Don't back down now @cyure ! Your off-road pavement princess is going to be a thing of beauty. Don't compromise because you are feeling a bit of range anxiety. Go with the 35-inch tires and live the dream! If the range really does become an issue you can down-size to 33-inch street...

    Warranty work with the Scout?

    VW dealers being able to repair a Scout Motors vehicle is not likely at all. Considering the way the VW dealers have been acting (https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a63667883/volkswagen-audi-dealers-scout-motors-lawsuit/) I doubt that Scout motors would ever support VW dealers servicing a Scout...

    The article I saw (InsideEVs.com) said the Recon would have a MOAB package that came with 33-inch off-road tires. So, the base model that starts at $65K (before destination charges) will likely not have the 33-inch tires. The Recon is probably sized so you can mount 33-inch tires without needing...

    Plug in hybrid.

    This makes sense if you think in terms of an electric vehicle - this is a EV truck with a generator. And charging an EV at home is less expensive than using gas. The truck needs a certain amount of power to move in normal conditions. When driving on flat ground, the generator can provide enough...

    Plug in hybrid.

    I think you are stuck on the 50% the wrong way. You said that is "such an odd, low point to not increase the battery above." But that is not what they are saying. What they are saying is the when in the specific mode, the genset engages to provide driving power and it will also charge the...
