  • 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.

    Ford’s future small BEV vs Terra

    I would imagine this new Electric truck Ford is working on is going to be about the size of the Maverick so I’m sure for some people that will be the right size competitive with slate or Tello, but for many people interested in the Terra they want a full-size truck midsize you get the offerings...

    Key Fob question

    But I feel like the start button on the wheel should be optional or at the very least bypassable

    Key Fob question

    just to be clear, I am saying that the vehicles should come with a key fob. But in terms of the connection thing, it really depends on how the manufacturers do it because some of them create a token on your phone or watch the same way that they do with your debit cards so they will always work...

    Key Fob question

    There definitely should be a Fob but it should be an option, I feel the same about the start/stop button, some people want it some don’t I’d personally like to just approach my vehicle with my watch, get in, buckle up, press the brake, shift into gear and go, no extra steps

    Frunk

    The outer dimensions sure, but the size of dash and other mechanical components are different, I have mentioned in another thread I don’t like the amount of plastic walls in the frunk on the concepts, but the rear wall is probably hiding a lot of stuff (atleast I hope for how much of it there...

    Frunk

    They can't dedicate the entire front area to the frunk, as they have to hide critical components under/behind it. and unlike GM and Ford the dash isn't as large, so some more stuff will be hidden under the frunk I'm sure

    Scout Loyalty

    I feel the same way, but it won’t be expressly stated as such, though if I wanted to trade my Gen 1 for gen2 then a loyalty program would be welcome

    Terra - Roof Top Option

    We’ve been told a visualization/configuration tool might be available later this year

    Scout Loyalty

    I would say the only thing that really makes sense would be a discount for all reservation holders, and maybe for returning customers down the line with mid model refresh or gen 2 and so on

    Carplay unconfirmed?!

    That's the issue we face here at my house digital works 90% of the time 70% if it needs a pin, MyQ app directly works 100% of the time unless its fallen out of the plug (I need to replace it) but MyQ is only partnered with a few car brands so we need the Meross/homekit/Google stuff. on the other...

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

    "things have been pushed back" followed by "rumor has it" fantastic way to spread misinformation

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

    I opened youtube to this video, it's not bad, and has some funny bits, but the comments are full of "bikes and public transit"

    Carplay unconfirmed?!

    Next week, I might take a break from my iPhone. While I was preparing for this, I realized I don't have a backup solution for my garage door. I use HomeKit through CarPlay to open and close my garage door since the Bolt doesn't have a Home button built in like our other cars, but they barely...

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

    This is a forum for everyone to discuss their experiences and opinions, and while it sounds like you’re a good fit with EREV I feel the quoted line here is a bit harsh. I have seen what we say, and realize it can seem like we’re saying BEV is for everyone, but the reality is there are many...

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

    This is something I have been curious about on scouts and it is with the wireless phone chargers. Will there be ventilated? My Bolt has a wireless phone charger with a little ventilation set up, but it has two glaring flaws. The first is that it relies on the HVAC to be on in order to put any...

    Spare Tire, Backpack, or Bald?

    I know but there’s a rattle I can’t stand. Personally, I would prefer something more similar to the Honda Ridgeline, or Rivian or even the cyber truck with the spare tire in a hole in the bed that you can remove and use as a cooler for whatever other storage purposes you may have

    Scout Patents

    I saw them this morning but was to tired to remember anything, not it’s just showing unauthorized

    Dixxon partnership, & EV whirring

    I think we should just replace the pedestrian warning sound with a button that Blair‘s truck horn and I think that’ll get them to move 😁

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

    Depending on where you spend time proximity to a building and friendliness with the owners or managers have said building can sometimes allow you to charge via L1 or 2 depending on outlets and your portable, but that does heavily depend on more factors. Though it’s not impossible as it’s...

    Spare Tire, Backpack, or Bald?

    I also never liked the little hanger under the body of a vehicle when you take the spare off, so I’m hoping that the on the Terra we can option a spare, just not on the vehicle
