  • 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.

    Lexus RZ chronicals-by my wife

    Love this idea! Its a beautiful car too, my wife loves the looks of the Lexus but we're going to get a R2 until we get our Scout. But I really look forward to hearing what your wife's experience is with her new car, because my wife has never driven an EV and I've owned one for 5 years, so the R2...

    The Start/Stop Button

    I get that, I'm just going to take solace in knowing we'll have full NFC capabilities, so I'm more than happy with that. However, I think the original idea from @J Alynn about changing to a "S" button is brilliant. I would absolutely love a quick programmable button such as a my mode, instant...

    With all the batteries they're going to have to find a way to get weight down, I would certainly expect aluminum panels, but maybe we can get steel quarters to protect us from squirrel farts :ROFLMAO:

    The Start/Stop Button

    It looks like he did state that it will work both ways. He said if we dont want to use it, its fine, and we will be able to just walk away and it will lock/shut off, so it would certainly suggest that if it has NFC accessibility you will also be able to approach it and it will unlock. With NFC...

    The Start/Stop Button

    It sounds like to me that we are getting both. We are getting a start/stop button but we will have the functionality of NFC which to me means, (hopefully) that if want we can bypass the button if we have our phone, fob, or potentially key card to do so. I do love hearing that we can just walk...

    No question, but I absolutely loved the digital paint spraying. That was really awesome to see as well as how all the other photos show how in dept and rigorous the training they are doing right from the start is. (y)

    The Start/Stop Button

    I hate that your Rivian experience went like that. They are far better now and have "drive specialist" that even after I told them I had a Rivian they still walked me to the car and went over all the vehicle openings, drive functions, and emergency procedures. Its my hope, and almost assuredly...

    The Start/Stop Button

    How I imagine @Jamie@ScoutMotors and his team are when trying to determine the start/stop button option. :ROFLMAO:

    The Start/Stop Button

    The 9 year old analogy is a valid one. I use to worry about this when my, (at the time 8 year old son) use to sit in my Tesla in my garage and play the racing game that actually used the steering wheel, brake pedal and even accelerator when playing it. However, as long as there isn't a phone...

    The Start/Stop Button

    I definitely don't want a start/stop button as I have a Rivian and have become accustomed to not having one. However, I would be completely fine with it being in the vehicle as long as I can opt to bypass it. That said, I think SM pretty much has to have at initial launch to satisfy the customer...

    The Start/Stop Button

    This is interesting to read. One of my favorite parts about having an EV is being able to sit in it watch youtube or play games while i'm sitting in it waiting for the ball game start/end, rain delays, or while the wife is in the store shopping. This is especially true in the heat of summer...

    R2 Launch Watch

    I have a R1 and I dont think the front cup holders are frail or fiddly at all. In fact, they are more than sturdy enough to survive the abuse my wife puts them through with her Stanley all weekend :ROFLMAO: But I also like that they retract too so we can utilize the center space floor area at...

    My last two purchases have been completely done in an app and I love it! When I actually took delivery I was at the service centers maybe 30 mins tops, and they were easily two of the best vehicle purchase experiences I've ever had.

    The Start/Stop Button

    No start button. I've said this before, but when I was shopping for my next vehicle I shopped the current EV trucks on sale today, and honestly my decision came down to just two, the Rivian and the Hummer EV. I will say that my initial first pick was the Hummer because of the size, removable...

    I'll gladly accept the frunk space sacrifice for more arc and tires from the start. :cool: 🤙
