  • 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 Color Poll #1

    And PBY is not for me! I'm eager to see the spectrum of colors they settle on after all the debate and lobbying in this forum! I like that the International Scout era featured colors, so I think it will be great to see those colors in the modern world. I'm just hoping to embrace it within my...

    Scout Color Poll #1

    I'm a fan of Kia's Wolf Gray! My last two vehicles have been gray, though, so I'm trying to get myself to branch out with the Scout. I put together this side by side to help me get comfortable with a little bit of color. I'm leaning toward Pacific Mist (labeled as Frosty Blue below).

    Is there anything that would make you switch from the BEV to the EREV?

    I agree with you there. The Rivian JV is something that gives me confidence in this automotive incumbent-backed venture.

    Is there anything that would make you switch from the BEV to the EREV?

    I've reserved a BEV Terra over EREV for the low maintenance and higher anticipated tow rating. But considering that's the model with the lowest pre-orders I'm concerned I'm going to be waiting years for it to hit the production line, so I'm wondering if I should go EREV just to get the truck...

    Scout Traveler and Terra Photo Collections and Wallpapers

    Keeping my excitement alive with a new Gemini generated phone wallpaper. Pacific Mist looks fantastic on the Terra next to a fictional Cascade Mountain lake.

    Scout Color Poll #1

    Yes! I feel like in the darker colors you lose all the definition of the lines that make the design so beautiful. I usually gravitate toward darker colors on my vehicles, but I think I'd be doing the Scout design team a disservice if I choose something dark. I want to show off their work!

    Scout Color Poll #1

    I keep going back and forth on what color I want and get excited every time Scout repaints the prototypes! Here are the 6 I'm excited about currently. While I don't want a Slate (more dinky than I'd like), their configurator tool just made me more and more eager to be able to configure my Terra.

    Ready for some winter cabin maintenance. I'm not sure what purpose those straps on the hood serve but I like the roof rack for carrying lumber! I tried some other colors but this Silo Green is really growing on me. "Craft a new image for me using the attached pictures as the base and add the...

    That looks fantastic! What prompt did you use? I’m still trying to figure out how to get what I want out of Gemini.

    Exclusive: Hyundai Mobis in talks with Volkswagen-owned Scout on multibillion-dollar deal

    After watching Chris Benjamin on The InEVitable podcast I also listened to their episode on battery recycling, manufacturing, technology, and critical minerals. This was a very educational episode for anyone reading this Hyundai Mobis report and trying to figure out the dynamics of the EV...

    I don't have this kind of money but the electric truck + electric RV setup looks nice in our PNW setting.

    Let's play " what will my Scout look like pulling my off road trailer "

    Good job on the prompt engineering! I couldn't get it to resist making changes to the grill at all, but am overall happy with the image it generated.
