  • 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.

    Waiting for Scout, I leased an Ioniq 5. Here are things I'd like to Improve and as they relate to Scout Terra or Traveler

    Why don't you want a dashcam or sentry mode?

    Im more of a 37" tire guy, are we going to need a lift kit or will these squeeze in?

    Since these are show mules and not final production vehicles, what would be the point in changes to the suspension and linkages? What they have on these is not what is going on the production vehicles, so anything on the under-belly is mule specific.

    Charging while driving…Wild, irresponsible speculation...

    Isn't the charging port of the Ford F150 Lightening just in front of the driver's door? Where are they going to plug into that can charge the truck while driving? Adding another charging port in the bed of the truck (the only place I can see having a generator) doesn't seem like a "plug-in"...

    Big Community Event?

    You mean like the International Harvester Scout & All Truck Nationals? The 35th Anniversary Show is June 12-14, 2026, in Springfield Ohio (http://www.midnitestar.org/). Scout Motors was there in 2025 with both concepts, from the flier it looks like they will be back again next year. I doubt...

    From a Tesla and Lightning Owner: Here’s What I Need to See from Scout

    The picture of the solar collection system in that article looks like the one proposed by Gosun (https://gosun.co/products/ev-solar-charger), but the vendor is not mentioned in the article. Is there another company that is doing something similar?

    From a Tesla and Lightning Owner: Here’s What I Need to See from Scout

    I hope everyone in your truck was unharmed. I have had a similar encounter with a kamikaze deer and it was not fun. The worst part for me was having the airbags go off at 35MPH and then having to drive to a safe stop. Hopefully you were going slow enough that you did not experience that.

    From a Tesla and Lightning Owner: Here’s What I Need to See from Scout

    My Hyundai Ioniq 5 mid-level trim also has the chime/notice when traffic in front of the car starts moving. I don't think it does anything when a traffic light turns green, I'll have to check the manual to see if there is a setting for that.

    Taking bets on the new color of the Traveler Concept to be seen soon...

    Sorry, I could not find anything from the JWST or Hubble for sale. But this is pretty close:

    Taking bets on the new color of the Traveler Concept to be seen soon...

    I have the same though. is he saying "cruel" or "far off"? Not knowing makes this even more fun! :LOL: For the Traveler, I guess black or a very dark grey. For the Terra, I guess a shade of red.

    What one thing would you like to see changed from concept to production?

    Of course, the built in light saber holder must be part of the "Star Wars 50th Anniversary" trim that will come out with the launch. After all, 2027 is the 50th anniversary of Star Wars (Star Wars was released on May 25, 1977). Will it be anything like the Hyundai IONIQ 5 Disney100 Platinum...

    What one thing would you like to see changed from concept to production?

    You say that as a joke, but then there is this little voice in the back of my mind that says "You know, other vendors are making really odd artificial noises for their EVs..."

    Scout Concepts in New York City September 18-19, 2025

    😭 I have a Terra reserved and want to see it in person. I guess I will have to wait for the next show with both prototypes and hope it is in the North East.

    What Song Will You Play First in Your New Scout?

    I just asked Google, and it gave me this article: https://interestingliterature.com/2023/10/best-songs-about-the-colour-yellow/ But, it looks like my suggestions are at the bottom of the list. Clearly, the person that created that list doesn't appreciate music the way we do. :D

    What Song Will You Play First in Your New Scout?

    @cyure I assume you have "Yellow Submarine" by the Beatles on that list. But do you have this one? :p

    What one thing would you like to see changed from concept to production?

    This suggestion of including a key fob as an option is a good one. I think this leans into the same desire multiple people have mentioned of an a-la-carte approach to options. If Scout does go with an a-la-carte approach to vehicle options, and the vehicles support phone-as-a-key, they could...

    Accelleration

    It was intended for the OP. The OP said "I'm very disappointed in the reduced performance." So I want to know if the OP has a vehicle the size of the Scout that can go 0-60 in under 5 second. And why they would be "disappointed" if the Harvester can only do 0-60 in 4.5 seconds.

    0-60 times with harvester

    I am going to reply with the same thing I said in the other thread: The Scouts are not race cars, they are trucks. Expecting race car acceleration for a full sized truck is ridiculous. You say the $86K Ford Lightning (that is starting price for the extended-range Lightening) can do 0-60 is...
