  • 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.

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

    I don’t remember seeing a builtin air compressor, with a hose long enough to reach all 4 tires. I think rivian and f150 lightning have something like that.

    Cabana top for Truck version

    I tried watching a couple blogger videos, but they just repeated a subset of the info from the live stream. The insights and info from y’all that were there has been far more valuable. Thanks!

    Dimensions

    Whew, that sounds more reasonable. Is the tire carrier something that can be removed when you don’t need it?

    Are factory deliveries for reservation holders being considered?

    And can you avoid the “destination fee” that way?

    Position charge port BEHIND the power outlets

    But they would work just fine on the front right side, with the added benefit that you wouldn’t need to back in to the space, and they’d be on the curb side for street charging. Tesla made the wrong decision on port placement, it’s irritating when others blindly do the same because that’s the...

    New Scout Trucks To Be Revealed October 24, 2024

    He indicated that harvester would have a smaller battery, but I didn’t get the impression that it would be a lot smaller.

    Say hello to the new Scout® Terra™ Truck and Scout® Traveler™ SUV

    Love the headlights, buttons, overall look. Not excited about the price. I assume there’s an option for a hard top on the traveler? Ragtop might get a bit noisy, and can imagine some issues in inclement weather. Closest thing to a removable top, though which is appreciated. Also, glad it has...

    SUV Reveal questions-pregame

    The drawing is not the new scout, we won’t see that until Thursday. The drawing is a traditional scout with orange lines giving the slightest hint of the design of the new one. I’m sure the new one will have AC, a screen and plenty of buttons/knobs/dials.

    New Scout To Be Revealed On October 24, 2024

    Yes, I saw that as a recognition that scout owners may want a wide variety of customization, including third party/after market stuff. It seems encouraging. In terms of options, my ideal would be something like Porsche, were you primarily choose specific options rather than bundles and trim...

    RECONSIDER EV

    It’s important to understand that, 1) even when electricity is generated with fossil fuels you still end up using less of them with an ev than an ice vehicle, and 2) every year more and more electricity is being generated cleanly, without using fossil fuels. Indeed, thanks to battery technology...

    The Key EV Tech I'm looking for in Scout Vehicles

    Looking at aptera’s implementation, I can’t imagine that there is any significant weight associated with solar panels on a vehicle done right. I mean, they’re a few mm thick, bonded to the body of the vehicle, can’t be very heavy.

    Scout Color Poll #1

    I like my car colors intense and shiny, like ford’s “eruption green”, Mazda’s “soul red crystal”, or Porsche’s “gentian blue metallic“. Anything but battleship gray. And for heaven’s sake, if you’re planning to buy me a vehicle for Xmas, no matte paint. Who needs the extra hassle? Gotta dream ?

    Robust and repairable would be a huge benefit compared to most currently available EVs.

    VW is investing in Rivian

    I think RJ talked a bit about this on a recent “inevitable” podcast. I don’t remember him saying that they would be vw employees, more like a spinning off the ev architecture folks into a separate entity modeled on rivian but jointly owned by vw and rivian, but I don’t precisely remember the...
