  • 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.

    Extra, Extra....Read All About It!

    I don't know why Car Scoops thinks the vehicles we brought to LA Auto Show are closer to production examples. They are the same vehicles with different paint and new accessories. I've seen the current production mockups, and most people would be hard-pressed to spot very many differences. But...

    Yes. Always yes. Not sure what you got, but yes, we cut over to a new customer management system. You all should start receiving more updates from us via email.

    He misspoke. It is 150 miles of range.

    Scout Concepts At LA Auto Show, November 21-30, 2025

    Both trucks are displayed with their lights on all day at the show and they run off of a 12v battery, so we have to plug them in to avoid draining that battery.

    Ev Delay

    This is another really big point that pains our engineers all the time. People don't read the manual and heed all the caveats and requirements for towing. They just hitch something up and take off.

    Is there anything SM could offer to get you to switch from EREV to BEV?

    Just to clarify, the Traveler wheelbase is shorter and the battery space is more limited than that of the pickup truck. That said, throwing more batteries at the pickup truck adds weight and cost and may not be the best solution for the market. The larger point is that we have more space to...

    Ev Delay

    Couple of additional points to mention (at this stage). A very early cutaway/rendered image we showed had the gas tank up front. We have since moved it under the rear seat area (like typical vehicles) and that allows us to move the batteries to the front for better weight distribution as they...

    Warranty work with the Scout?

    Studios and workshops will start construction before vehicle deliveries. All in good time. :D

    Go ahead and add your address to your reservation and you will get something mailed to you. Same for anyone else with a reservation that didn't receive an email.

    Plug in hybrid.

    Yes, you can gas and go. You will typically run out of fuel before you run out of battery. So you stop and fuel up and keep driving. Conversely, if you want to stop and charge the battery pack off the gas generator, you can. You can camp and use the generator to top off the battery pack as well...

    October 2025 Scout Motors Production Center Update

    There will be subassembly going on in the supplier park, so a combination of things.

    Plug in hybrid.

    I think the series hybrid gives us options to do this in ways that make sense and give customers the most flexibility.

    October 2025 Scout Motors Production Center Update

    The grading started a couple months before the official announcement (you can see it previous months updates in background). The supplier buildings are going up quick. Different type of construction as they don’t need to install over head car carriers hanging from the ceiling. 😎

    Yep, if you add your address you will get something from us, even if you haven’t received the email yet (also check spam folder just in case).

    Plug in hybrid.

    Yes, absolutely. There is roughly 150 mile of pure BEV range. So let’s say you run out of fuel, you would still have a certain percentage of battery left to get you to either a gas station for more fuel, or a battery charger to top off the battery. Yes, the system will know when the fuel tank...

    These were sent to whatever email you used for your reservation (if your forum registration is a different email then that's why it isn't the same). These are going out to reservation holders.

    Plug in hybrid.

    I think it depends on the use case naturally. But under normal operating conditions the fuel will run out before the battery. Whether that leaves 10% or 20% remains to be seen, but you get the general idea. Keep in mind it will remind you fuel is low just like any ICE vehicle, so pulling in...
