  • 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.

    Scout Design Team Feedback V1

    There seems to be a lot of market skepticism re: battery swapping but t's already in play. I know Renault wasn't successful but NIO in China is doing it with plans to expand into the US and European markets by 2025.

    Scout Design Team Feedback V1

    Two items I forgot to mention in my design wish-list, and they are big ones. 1. Easily removable batteries. By 2026 and beyond I believe the expectation is that battery swapping stations will be a reality, or close to it. Think of gas stations for batteries where you can pull in and get your...

    345 V8 with a 4 speed transmission. Purchased from Twin Falls, ID and shipped back to Boston, MA about 12 years ago and has been my obsession ever since. The title from ID was so old it was the size of a baseball card! It was repainted to a slightly darker shade of orange from the previous...

    1. As many have mentioned already, both a hard and soft top option. Ensure the hard top has some integrated, but hidden (maybe fold-down) hooks so you can hoist off without needing to get between the top and the body to take on/off 2. I know this is probably obvious, but a swing down lift gate...
