  • 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.

    How much personalization/modification ability do you want to see in the new Scout?

    Thanks!! Not situations I’ve been in so hadn’t thought of that. I wonder if there could be like a speed detector setting or something? Like how the doors automatically lock at a certain speed, if you’re going over that speed the lights are on. Or a way to turn them off but then the next time the...

    How much personalization/modification ability do you want to see in the new Scout?

    Actual question not snark, why do you want to be able to turn the headlights off? I see (barely) so many people who have either decided they don’t need their lights yet or have forgotten they aren’t on when they would actually be helpful for others to see them, even if it isn’t helping them...

    Traveler spare tire carrier - other locations?

    It’s too bad the tire rack can’t go up or down with the upper and lower tailgates. Up would be more out of the way when you’re putting stuff in or out or when you’re parked tight. Down could be used as a platform to extend the tailgate and make a big table out of it. I have no idea if any of...

    What is one feature you hope Scout will include that has not yet been shown?

    Yeah I’m going to be almost all on road (in my Scoot). My dad and his siblings sold my grandfather’s land this past summer and that was the only place I ever really went off road and even that was pretty mild. Don’t have to ford a river, just drive through the branch. I sure do love the look of...

    Please limit immediate resale.

    You should be able to claim both. It is per car not per filer as far as I can tell.

    AC Vent Locations

    My current car has them and it was great for keeping the kids from fighting over the temperature as much. One kid could have one vent blow on them and the other could point the other away from them.

    Scout Supply Merchandise Live

    I need a plaid flannel shirt. That would be awesome. They need to commission an official Scout tartan or something

    Referral Program

    I’ve already told everyone I know to the point that some run the other way 😂 But I’ve also got three of the guys in my group at work to go check it out and one said he was going to put down a reservation

    Scout Recon? Scout Patrol? ...

    The Scout that doesn't go off road is a Scoot!

    Please, No Free Fast Charging Credits

    My dad always said I should never run the tank down to less than a quarter full because that’s where the impurities hang out and it can get into the engine if you do. Probably not so true anymore but still a habit he and I have

    Audio system

    eh, go full retro - 8 track or bust!

    Audible pedestrian warning noise

    Audible pedestrian warning noise

    honestly what is stuck in my head now is that old GEICO commercial with the little pig hanging out the window going "wheeeeeeeee"

    Audible pedestrian warning noise

    and for Halloween it can have the Frankenstein's Monster groan!

    Love the Nostalgia

    isn't there sometimes a way to have the car make sound so it doesn't sneak up on people? Maybe that could be a sound to choose

    Are factory deliveries for reservation holders being considered?

    I will head in from Mebane - not that much farther than Charlotte!

    What are you driving until release?

    I have a 2010 Ford Flex with almost 280k miles on it. My plan for the next few years is to cross my fingers hard.

    Dog Ramp

    I already have to help my Samoyed in my car as is and it's not that tall (he just doesn't want to make the effort especially when we are leaving the park). A ramp would give him less of an excuse to look at me with doggy eyes saying 'but it is so hard...'

    What is one feature you hope Scout will include that has not yet been shown?

    I hope they put some sort of sides on the lower storage (easy to push out of the way so you can put things in) so that when the car is bouncing around, nothing bounces under the pedals

    Wish I could sleep till 2027!

    Sales starting in 2027 worries me a little. My car has 270k miles on it so I'm not sure when it will get to the point where it isn't a good financial idea to fix it anymore. I don't want to get a car for a year or so in-between if I can avoid it. Fingers crossed!
