  • 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.

    Show us your holiday spirit and/or Xmas tree

    Tree is all up, outside is pretty much done, just have to do some wreaths on the windows upstairs tomorrow.

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

    Yeah that’s the main reason for me. They can also pattern out and do ‘light shows’ but I just wanted them for the high beam function. Hopefully that will start to be more common here now they are legal. Most vehicles in Europe have them these days.

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

    I have them on my car and I think they’re great, it’s nice on unlit roads where I can still have my side of the road lit up along with the side of the road to help look for deer without having to dip them or blind a car that is oncoming.

    Software Features

    I do in my Tesla because if the car is unlocked and I hit the charge port door when power washing it would open (you can tap the charge port door to open it normally in my car) and that disables it.

    5klbs towing cap with gas range extender?

    For me in your scenario, it would depend on how often you do this, if it's once or twice a year vs every few weeks and how far away you are towing. Also, since there is time before orders are locked in I would see if any new charging infrastructure is opened up on your typical route. It will...

    Will Scout offer a computer controlled air oil suspension

    Me too, I like the idea of air suspension but I worry about longevity in the system.

    What accessories would the supplier park install?

    For me ceramic window tint, maybe a screen protector, ceramic coating of the interior if needed, and PPF would be the main ones (with options for if you want partial or full PPF). I would probably go with the front, including mirrors, and then around the door handles, as well as the rocker panel...

    New Harvester Info from LA Auto Show

    He also said in the interview it would have a combined range of around 500 miles and over 100 all electric, so can easily still be 150 miles based on that.

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

    At least you would also have some form of braking with regen, and assuming you have a hold type mode you could come to a complete stop without touching the brakes if anything did happen, although not for a full emergency stop situation. Although I’m sure the vehicle will have some sort of...

    Is there anything that would make you switch from the BEV to the EREV?

    Not for me, I don't want the hassle of maintaining the Harvester and losing EV range in the process. I've done 1,000+ mile road trips in my EV so I have no worries on range. If Scout decided to only make the EREV and not the BEV then I would just cancel my order and look for something elsewhere.

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

    I'm assuming the Harvester may have some sort of built in knowledge about when it was last ran and perhaps will require it to run every so often for that reason. I also wonder if you don't need the Harvester that often if there would be any recommendations regarding adding any fuel stabilizer.

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

    Even without all the issues listed in the article, I still can’t fathom how it’s that expensive for what it is.

    Become A Scout Wayfinder

    I haven’t had anything. Seems like it would be interesting if selected though.

    Jeep Recon

    Yeah, I don't really need them for where we live in PA but more so for where we travel. They're still useful under 45 degrees anyways and stop better etc. even when it's just cold or wet so I don't mind having the two options. I figure once the outlay on the second set of wheels is done, then...

    Jeep Recon

    That is what I will be debating when it comes to picking tires for the Scout. We go snowboarding a lot and drive up to Quebec every winter as well as parts of New England. I have winter tires on my Tesla that we take at the moment, I'm not sure if A/T or all season tires on the Scout will be...

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

    Not to mention, no one who owns a Kia Telluride (my wife included) is going to be using it to pull logs.

    Jeep Recon

    I am as well, I think 35” will look slightly better but for what I use it for, I think I’ll take the extra range of the smaller tires.

    Scout Supply Merchandise Live

    My dog is a little crazy when it comes to playing the snow and catching snowballs 😂 His beard gets a little out of control sometimes!
