  • 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.

    Honda was more invested than you think. From Automotive News: "Honda was caught out more than most its Japanese competitors because it was the most aggressive in buying into an EV future, plowing billions into EV production hubs in the U.S. and Canada. It was the only Japanese carmaker to set a...

    Here is something shown in the video. Perhaps they are from Scott Keogh's recent discussion? It gives a look at Harvester changes, including the moved gas tank and raised air intake at the rear pillar. I'm not sure if that's the gas filler near the air intake.

    It does matter a little bit because the host, Doug Demuro, is popular. He created Cars and Bids, and his personal YouTube channel has over 5 million subscribers. This is how I imagine some of the people at Scout are feeling this week 😉.

    We will be reading articles about this for weeks, just just like all the articles about the BEV being delayed. Everyone jumps on the story without doing any research. They're just recycling the same "news". I've already seen one, but at least they reached out to Scout for a response and got one...

    Excessive front tire wear in the R1 might be the reason the Rivian R2 will use the rear tires in conserve mode.
