  • 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.

    EV reservation holders, would you consider the Harvester

    I just wish they would call more attention to the BEV I feel like I’ve beaten my view point to the brink, but some BEV representation on the news and interviews would ease a lot of tension about BEV pushbacks, but I also dont think that’s going to be an issue

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

    I had a long discussion with a carmax sales lady and my parents today about this, because I took my Father to finally get a newer vehicle and I didn’t realize gas price concerns as I never touch the stuff, besides giving the occasional $20 to friend for driving sometimes

    Is the EREV going to be a flop?

    To be fair I don’t think it’s quit cut and dry, some chargers are buggy, until someone called EA one of my regular chargers was accidentally free for 5 months, sometimes there’s discounts if you have a membership, on a road trip you may lodge and get to l1-2 overnight skipping the mass fees, and...

    Is the EREV going to be a flop?

    Given the amount of people that aren’t educated in EVs, reserving for the brand, that will just gas and go with ever charging because they think L1 is to complicated (Like PHEV owners) and that Reservations are promised purchases. I doubt most of those reservation holders understand that it’s...

    I don’t see BEV being that far from launch unless scout is willing to send out orders and tell those that have changed their mind to BEV they’ll have to circle back later, all because they didn’t update their reservation, realistically were probably talking a split build based on the active...

    Scout Color Poll #1

    I just swapped out my iPhone today and while setting up this new phone there are AI icon customizations and this is what it did to the forums app icon

    Scout delayed??

    I thinks it’s a good possibility as long as the factory is running by the end of 27

    Actual delay official and order of deliveries confirmed?

    I feel like this, sum a lot things decently. When Scouts come back was announced it was as EV company, being an EV company makes it easier for them to follow through on the DTC model, and while there is definitely a place for an EREV in an adventure vehicle in the majority of interviews where...

    Actual delay official and order of deliveries confirmed?

    This is also the thing that doesn’t make a lot of sense to me given the wording it’s fair and easy to assume that they will batch people together based on what they have currently reserved being traveler first along with harvester models however nobody has to lock in on anything until scout...

    Actual delay official and order of deliveries confirmed?

    It’s not really a delay. It’s more of a solidifying timeline. Maybe it’s the portions of the Internet I spend time in, but I feel like a genuine delay. Would be scout coming out and saying that there will be zero production on anything until late 2028 as of right now, nothing would be stopping...

    Actual delay official and order of deliveries confirmed?

    I would say wording aside this feels like less of a delay in more of a “lock-in” on a timeline but that is because to me it doesn’t feel like the timeline has changed. It’s more concrete. While on the other hand, the one thing scout continues to do that bothers me from a company that had planned...

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

    Well, EREV may currently have more reservations I wouldn’t be too terribly concerned about it as reservations still aren’t guaranteed that people will convert them to orders and when they start sending out, the order forms were request or whatever you wanna call them people still have the chance...

    For as out of touch as dealers are, the manufacturers are just as out of it. A quote from a GMC Sierra EV team lead when asked if they were selling to a younger or older audience primarily. “We’re mainly selling to people that can afford our trucks, and younger people that can afford them” while...

    Scout delayed??

    I think the thing about most people’s complaints with towing is very similar to why I assume that they would say that they’d be willing to give up the Frunk. They think they need more than they really do. I’m not discrediting people that do genuinely need to tow heavier items on a more regular...

    Scout delayed??

    For the amount of people coming from ICEV I would assume they might say yes, until they get to experience the benefits of a Frunk

    Key Fob question

    even GM has it just a few taps on the screen, or if you want the vehicle to remain on until you decide otherwise there’s a trick for that to. I can get why scout may want the button for first time EV owners, but I really think it’s just a byproduct of when it was designed, but having it as an...

    Spare tire discussion

    Instead of starting a new thread, I'll bring this here. For the Terra, what is the likely reason for the underbody spare? I'm no vehicle engineer, but what's keeping Scout from adding extra utility to the bed? Something like the Ridgeline, R1T, or even the CT. A carrier built into the bed, that...

    Harvester Capless Fuel Fill Door

    I feel this especially with gas pumps, I'm thankful I rarely need to touch them now. Though I feel the same about public chargers.

    Key Fob question

    It can have it's place, but for the majority of drivers it's just an extra step. However if you watch any TFL video they like to complain about the removal of the button, since they leave the key in the vehicle during the filming, and gets just as annoying as hearing them complain about "the...

    Key Fob question

    I wouldn't assume so since its ran by the software, as long as the vehicle is "awake," you can tell it to run the Harvester. At least based on what we've seen
