  • 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.

    The one I posted is a bit different. Maybe another one off? Headlight housings are not the same

    Joining the EV gang while waiting for Scout!

    Heating steering wheels are amazing. I miss it in my Accord

    FB find of the day

    Nope. It was originally done, as I barely recall reading somewhere to compete with US muscles back in the day. I’m assuming this is a concept or maybe it’s just a retro mod but man I just think it’s a stunning vehicle

    Factory Pick Up - Cost and what does it include?

    Love the kids museum portion-that’s a cool idea. Maybe add some tech and have a screen in front of windshield so it looks like they are driving or some new and existing miniature front cabins so kids can “drive”

    Factory Pick Up - Cost and what does it include?

    The only trick with this is maintaining the Scout “image” from one event to the next. We’ve heard people say I was told “this or that” at one one the prototype events creating questions from viewers which reflects poorly over time if the info and experience isn’t consistent. Everything in this...

    Factory Pick Up - Cost and what does it include?

    Great idea. I think a few years ago we had some similar discussions but great you brought it up again and would support the regional scout group concept

    Factory Pick Up - Cost and what does it include?

    I can get behind this. Probably because similar to my thinking but I agree-it needs to be a valid experience and a reasonable cost if fair. Hence paying for the overnight stay. I like the idea of a Thursday event because you take 2 days off work (or fake it like you said-mental health day for...

    1.13.26. Some is EV, some is vintage and then there’s the Aston Martin. OMG she’s a beauty

    A fun tool to compare Traveler BEV vs. EREV routing

    But what did Chuck Norris say? 🤣

    Still a Chevy. Will never buy another Chevy in my life. Only worse car my wife and I experienced was our Dodge/Plymouth years ago that went back under lemon law

    I wouldn’t say washed up but now I see them everywhere. And after I sent daughters back due to torn soft top I’ll certainly never consider one again and I genuinely really liked that vehicle. But hardtop wasn’t my thing because I liked the open top

    I wanted it to look good too. The front quarter view and that orange looks really great-just the back end not working for me

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

    It’s OK. It took me a moment at first and dumb luck I saw the name.

    Factory Pick Up - Cost and what does it include?

    I suspect that is part of how BMW subsidized theirs, but even at $5-$10 per car sold that gives BMW an experience that gets buyers talking. In our case I did the delivery. Had such great memories that 12 years later I paid for daughter to do their teen driving school. She loved it so much we’ve...

    Factory Pick Up - Cost and what does it include?

    I’m not against those thoughts either the trick becomes staffing and managing everyone picking up. It’s one thing to say your vehicle will be X date as part of a full delivery experience. It’s another to want to walk the museum and grab a sandwich and realize you have to wait 2 months longer...

    Ver Very well played!

    Factory Pick Up - Cost and what does it include?

    Maybe that’s the key as well. Schedule some of the factory deliveries as forum member deliveries. At least there would be some connections based on years of this chaos we call the forum

    Factory Pick Up - Cost and what does it include?

    That’s a great idea. My company’s other office is Charlotte so hour commute twice a week-work from home 3 days and take a walk everyday at lunch to admire the Scouts-I could do that for sure. Maybe they’ll hire me as the factory delivery ambassador
