  • 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.

    FB find of the day

    I might open up Pandora's box here, but the back end of the Scout's is like the front end of the Rivian for me, I just don't really like it, and I even own a Rivian lol! I get for Rivian the primary function of the design was so it was instantly recognizable, and well I would definitely say that...

    Don't let the Scout become a status symbol; why $60k misses the point of the Revival

    My Rivian R1T lease doesn't end until March 2028, but I'm going to be well over mileage due to taking a new job so I'll be doing a lease buyout for sure. But with the R2 release eminent, I'm thinking the R2 is a perfect "gap vehicle" until the Scout's come out.

    Scout Concepts in Scottsdale, Arizona, April 25, 2026

    Unfortunately, the further we get from the pre-internet generation the less common sense people will have. I am absolutely looking forward to SEEING either the Terra or Traveler, (hopefully both) in Columbia next Sunday, so I'll see you there. :cool: (y)

    Welcome and Introductions!

    Welcome to the Community! I was in the same mindset as you, but I went with a Rivian R1T instead of the lightning. However, having had a F-150 prior I really wouldn't mind having that amount of cab space again and being back in a full size truck. The Rivian is incredible off-road and fantastic...

    If Hyundai built this Jeep and Bronco would take a serious hit. Amazing looking concept, and given how much Hyundai is willing to push eccentric design there is a chance of it having a strong resemblance. Either that or it will come out looking like a VehiCROSS type of thing. :ROFLMAO: P.S...

    R2 Launch Watch

    OOO did an interview with RJ regarding this, and judging from the data Rivian collected the vast majority of owners (I'm one of them) home charge.

    R2 Launch Watch

    I'm really excited to see R2 again I saw it two years ago in Atlanta and it was roped off. But even more excited I'm going to go see the Scouts first in a couple of weeks in SC and then R2 in May, so I hopefully that will give me all the information I need to decide what my next step will be. I...

    Ok I like the sound of this much better than just entirely "buying third party" so to speak. Surely with as early as they partnered with Rivian and with the new inclusion of Rivian's own chip SM can fully tailor it to their needs. As a current Rivian owner, this is quite a comforting feeling...

    Interesting. With a Rivian and VW partnership already in place I would think maybe a high capacity battery out of the EDV would be a potential fit for the Scout wheelbase.

    Speaking of guilty by association lol, my last 4 vehicles have been Gray, Silver, Gray, and Black. I think SM has a unique opportunity and is expected by the customer base to really offer some great colors and graphics options that I for one definitely plan to take advantage of.

    R2 Launch Watch

    Great news I RSVP'd to my local Rivian event and this is the email response I got! It looks like at the R2 viewing events people WILL be able to get inside and tinker, and not only that but they're going to have several at the locations in different colors. Looking forward to this!

    I cannot wait to see R2 again in person! I went 2 years ago and it was completely roped off, I really hope we get access to it this time and HOPEFULLY can drive it soon too.
