  • 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.

    Is it? The gas tax froze in the 90s and cars got more efficient, and applying a blanket tax (equivalent to a very large inefficient ICE) to EVs and hybrids regardless of mileage driven is “fair”? To me it’s still a drop in the bucket compared to the cost of a gas car, but it’s not “fair”, I have...

    That’s not a very great way to look at it, as there’s still many people that want an EV. I already pay over $100+ extra on my registration for local EV tax, paying over $300 on registration a year this would bump that over $400 and while all of that plus one month of charging is still better...

    Do those early 2000s Harley Davidson F-150s count? Not me personally but I know multiple people that have them because of the Logo attached, all but one were bought second hand though

    Scout Gift "Unboxed"

    The art rendition of the holiday break stream is super adorable, I’d frame it if I could

    It’s thicker than I expected

    Change of Heart?

    It can still hurt though. I’m not complaining, just feeling the impatience growing, and it will worsen when/if I see travelers or harvester Terras while I’m still in my bolt or borrowing some old gas guzzling truck

    FB find of the day

    It’s the future Travelette! I know those were crew cab trucks, but the name fits a smaller sportier traveler

    Actual delay official and order of deliveries confirmed?

    Which is fair, but if scout came to me and said “we can get you the BEV Terra early, but you don’t get many/any options for it” I’d certainly be very tempted, as I do legitimately plan to start up a second channel around it and my adventures so

    Bench or Bucket Seating Poll

    We’ve seen usb ports on the dash, but I ware out cables fast in the car, and find wireless charging far more convenient when it’s an option (and cooled) I know the bench will fold down, but I really need to see it in person once they have a production model to get a better understanding and make...

    Bench or Bucket Seating Poll

    This is very circumstantial, but for me a possible downside to the bench is losing the phone chargers. I carry two phones and need them for working, and safety. The design and convenience of the phone chargers we have been shown with the console would be perfect for me.

    Actual delay official and order of deliveries confirmed?

    Out of spec also got an earlier delivery by accepting a white truck with green interior instead of fully customized

    Actual delay official and order of deliveries confirmed?

    I’ve promised to make a channel focused on my scout, honest an unbiased 😁 but I don’t think that’s good enough to qualify 😹

    They've seemed to have "issues" with that Gen 2 from the start, and almost every video it appears in, "My Gen1 R1T handles/feels/sounds better." So I'm not discounting its issues, just that the Launch R1T they have seems to be more reliable, but maybe that Gen2 was just part of a bad batch

    Scout Concepts in Seattle, Washington, May 9, 2026

    Count me in! 😹 I do regular EV explanations when out working, I’d happily do it for Scout

    There’s only one button I think is unnecessary, but that’s been well discussed, and even then I’m not opposed to options. If I’m at a campsite I can see myself opening the door and using the physical buttons to open the Frunk, if an external is non existent or otherwise disabled, but if I arrive...

    I’ll give an example, it will sound contrived and have other solutions based upon n vehicle (phone, fob, external) but just bear with me, as I’ve dealt with this. Parked in a lot, you go in the store and return, someone wasn’t very considerate and parked a little to close, this vehicle has no...

    I’m not sure how I feel about this, I’ve not given that much thought to the charge port location, but last time I was at a Supercharger I could back in my Bolt and reach the front for easier exit because of the parking lot layout, but while I don’t tow very often I’m not sure how happy I would...

    The screen isn’t unnecessary, it’s an additional option. If it can be opened via an app on your phone the vehicle is also capable of using software based interface to open/close. This gives options, not like your passenger will be able to flip to that screen and open the frunk while driving. I’m...
