  • 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.

    What kind of tech do you expect enabled in the car or interface?

    That would be cool. If I recall correctly, Cadillac tried to do this a few years ago..and it didn't go overly well. Wasn't the whole windscreen though. :)

    Here's a link to it: https://www.ncleg.gov/BillLookup/2019/S384. I know SM has plans for 16 service centers to be open when they begin delivering in 2027 with more to come. I think the goal was like 100 centers by 2030 or something. I'm a little concerned about what service would be like at...

    So I did a little digging....and....back in 2019, the NC General Assembly passed a bill to revise the Motor Vehicle Dealer Laws in the state. According to the summary I read, they specifically allowed EV companies to sell direct to consumers with up to 6 company owned sales locations in the...

    Scout Warns VW Dealers Fighting Direct Sales That It’s Not Playing Around

    Perhaps that was an assumption.....and you are right, they are going to build their own infrastructure. But plugging into an existing network provides you a stop gap till you can get that infrastructure in place (which is going to take a while) AND gives owners more options in case they need...

    Scout Warns VW Dealers Fighting Direct Sales That It’s Not Playing Around

    I thought I remembered reading somewhere that the plan was for Scouts to be serviced at VW Dealerships. Maybe I'm misremembering that....or that was never official. But if that was part of the plan.....then the reason for bringing it up is "If you fight us here.....you won't get ANYTHING. If...

    Hey! Another Triad person! As far as the legislation.....I wonder if sure it's needed. Tesla, Rivian and Lucid already sell direct to consumer in NC and they started off the same as Scout. I'm all for protecting it....but I'm not sure something it needed to specifically allow it.

    I didn't see a thread for the NC people so I thought I'd put one out there! We're basically right next door to the factory, so we should definitely represent. So let's hear from you! What've you got/reserved and where are you? Reserved Terra Harvester - Triad Area

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

    Another vote for SiriusXM.

    What are you driving until release?

    Love the new Z. It's fast, handles well, is pretty comfortable and looks amazing. I have a feeling it'll be the last manual car I ever purchase. At least that's the plan! If Nissan did put together a manual transmission Nismo Z, I'd be sorely tempted to trade. But barring that....I'm...

    Scout Warns VW Dealers Fighting Direct Sales That It’s Not Playing Around

    I did search.....and there were a lot of different threads, so I had to pick one. Did read the letter.....and it's written by SM's legal group. I also found the CNDNA letter that started this. I didn't see another letter from VW Group.....but I do think they could end CNDNA's argument that SM...

    Scout Warns VW Dealers Fighting Direct Sales That It’s Not Playing Around

    Really not sure which thread to post in on this topic.....but...I wonder what VW Group has to say about all this? I feel like they could put an end to this very quickly with a letter that states "Scout Motors is not part of VW Group." Assuming that Scout is in the right here, VW's getting a...

    Should Scout Motors consider a remake of the 1981 Scout SSV? A Scout SSV For the Future

    Agreed....though I was thinking I saw some Pontiac Aztek DNA in there.

    Welcome and Introductions!

    Hey everyone......new guy here. Been posting for about a day and a half at this point....thank you for tolerating me thus far! Really looking forward to getting my hands on a Terra Harvester in a couple years. The idea will be to replace my Nissan Titan SV pickup which I use to take my race...

    Scout Color Poll #1

    Can't go wrong with red.....but....I REALLY think a Dark Green (British Racing Green anyone?) would be awesome to have. Seems like green is on the outs with a lot of car companies these days (my unresearched observation).....and I don't know why.

    Brake pedal behavior: Preference?

    When I was daily-ing an EV, I got used to driving stop light to stop light with just the accelerator and the regen braking (never did like the fact that the brake lights came on when you lifted though!). Heavier braking required the normal brakes....and I would still hold the car in place with...

    Travel Charger Included?

    My apologies if this has already been covered somewhere. I did a search but didn't find anything specific to this. Anyway, I'm wondering if the group has heard anything about a 110V outlet travel charger being included with the vehicle? When I got my Tesla back in 2020 they were...

    Payload and towing with harvester range extender on a Traveler

    I could certainly see a case where you create a profile for a towing load and the computer learns as it goes. Save it as Boat or Travel Trailer or something and when it senses a trailer plugged in, it can bring up a list of existing profiles to be picked or allow the creation of a new one. I...
