  • 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.

    All indications so far point to them being standard.

    BMW iX has a reverse beeper and a low speed exterior pedestrian warning. It very subtle or people are just getting used to the EV sounds because they walk right in front of me all the time.🤷🏻‍♂️ Inside is what’s called Iconic Sounds which were composed by Hans Zimmer. They are different...

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

    Interesting how experiences can differ. My co worker loves his Lyric and has had no issues. My brother likes his Vistiq. I have a BMW iX and it has been perfect.

    I would not say I have gotten over the acceleration. But, I do not floor it all the time. I use it when passing. I have even used it in emergency situations to avoid a near miss or worse. I still like it, but I find myself striving for efficiency. Also, the best accelerations occurs in...

    This is Teddy (she/her). Some of you have seen her before. This picture is hilarious to me. She is staring at our front door after one of her favorite friends went home.

    I had a Siamese that would come when called, sit, and fetch.

    Sadly many potentially good candidates won’t run because of what it does to the person and their family. Sorry I sound pessimistic, but South Carolina will screw this up if there is any chance to do so. Native South Carolinian here.

    It would come with this image as part of the package.

    So maybe something like a collab with a suspension company? Fox, Rancho or whatever? That reminds me of the Hurst Olds.

    Good point. It is a fun exercise to think of tie ups and partnerships. But, I am not sure it makes sense for Scout. At least not at the beginning. While not exactly the same market, I wonder how successful the Subaru/LL Bean editions were?

    Maybe we are splitting hairs, but what you are saying is a business decision not a stance on an amendment. Just so it is clear, I am not anti 2nd amendment. I am anti assault rifle and high capacity magazine. I am sure to catch some flak, but that is my stance. When I was taught to shoot and...

    This post makes me hope that Scout is universally liked and well received no matter what your interests and persuasions are.

    They are not pro or anti 2nd Amendment. They just choose not to sell firearms. There are plenty of other places to buy them. This is a very misunderstood and slippery slope subject. Probably best not to tie Scout up with it either way.

    Patagonia does it right. I like to think that Scout does too. But, if that is your perception maybe it is not a good fit. Those sort of partnerships can be tricky. It could be a disaster if the partner company does something wrong or their leadership turns out to be a bad actor.

    I personally like Patagonia and their company philosophy. Seems somewhat aligned on many levels. But, there are many brands that would be a good fit.
