  • 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.

    I swear every Hybrid/EV designed by one of the major legacy manufacturers looks 70-80% great and then they add some stupid boxy/angled/out of place styling that just kills it for me.

    They had me in the first half why is the back so... rectangular?

    We have a Rivian Space very closeby so I'm hoping they have an R2 in there soon!

    R2 Launch Watch

    I really can't wait for the configurator- It's going to drive my purchase timing (I also am a Day 2 reservation holder so who knows how far back in the line I actually am)

    Shopping for a “new” BEV while waiting for the Scout Traveler BEV.

    Please DM me this so I don't forget it- I will use yours!!! I'm almost certainly going to do a launch model assuming the timing lines up. I have a ~50 mile round trip commute daily which doesn't include anything going on before or after work (e.g. carting kids around), so even though I'm...

    I will definitely be reporting back on the R2 for the fine folks here ;)

    I cannot say it loud enough: I do not want to talk to my car.

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

    My Model X comparison was really just to show how big the Scout is (and inexpensive by comparison)

    Since I've started looking more seriously at the R2 I hopped over there... I don't get the same sense of community as I found here. Saying anything negative about Rivian (or positive about another brand) seems frowned upon unless its in the service-issues-echo-chamber.

    Just as a FYI there's a 3rd party tool called EVPlay which lets you use CarPlay on the Rivian. I haven't dug too much into it, but put a pin on it while I wait for my R2 reservation to pop.

    Lexus RZ chronicals-by my wife

    range anxiety is me filling up my One thing that I am absolutely positive EVs do better than gas cars. In the subaru I know what "10 miles" means when it says that much is left, and I can tell you its more than 10 miles.

    Lexus RZ chronicals-by my wife

    I love this thread. I'm an enthusiast in the community but a normie when it comes to technical knowledge and general EV experience, so its great to hear experience/reviews from the general consumer instead of the people who debate charge curves and kWh efficiency based on temperature. For the...

    I could see a use if it gave the ability to adjust the tailgate depth, but I don't really get the point of the roll up.

    We have a 2024 XC90 and its been great with only a few minor issues that were covered by warranty (2nd row passenger window rattled because it wasn't seated properly, quick fix) My only complaint is really with the software, and while their latest upgrade is a HUGE improvement, it somehow made...
