  • 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.

    fun features for the younger and digital generation who mught have never met scout of the old days (speaking from such perspective

    I've tried auto park on my parents Nissan and my Tesla, neither are very good, or rather, they get you in the space but it takes a crazy amount of time and if you did it in a busy parking lot it would annoy a lot of people! Granted I only used them a couple of times for the novelty but they'd...

    Do You Want Your Scout To Have A Hands-Free Driving System?

    I would like to, driving a couple of hundred miles on the PA turnpike every couple of months is incredibly boring and being able to just watch the road and monitor without having to worry about hands on wheel is very nice. I don't need/want self driving around cities and back roads etc. but...

    Steering wheel stalks

    As long as it is easy to clean and doesn't get any dust or dirt stuck in there that's difficult to clean.

    Travel Charger Included?

    Good question, I'm in two minds, because it's a waste of material and cost if everyone gets it and some people don't need/want it, but will be useful to others. Maybe they should have it available as an option to buy. I have a Tesla 110V plug as well as a 14-50 that should work with the Scout...

    Towing a Off-Road Trailer with the Terra

    I would expect so, I know we don’t know the battery size but if it was around 75kW for 150 miles that would be level 2 speeds to full charge

    Towing a Off-Road Trailer with the Terra

    I can’t see it charging that slow, based on 500 mile range with only 150 EV it wouldn’t work. The 150 miles would be gone in under 3 hours of driving at highway speed and a level 2 wouldn’t be able to charge it back up fast enough to keep going for another 350 miles.

    Heated Windshield/ Night Vision

    One of my old cars had a heated windshield and it was amazing. You could never really see the lines either from a normal driving position so it wasn’t distracting in any way.

    Experience Center locations

    I think Lancaster PA would be perfect for an experience center based on how you've described it! :ROFLMAO:

    Did Your City Receive 2025 Grant Funds To Build Charging and Refueling Infrastructure?

    I think there should be some consideration into just offering 110V outlets at a lot of apartment parking spaces in these large cities. The people in them are most probably not doing large commutes out of the city every day so it would be a cheaper way to allow people like this to get 10-12 kW of...

    Blythewood, SC EV Charging Stations?

    At least there are fast chargers in the cities north and south of Blythewood so that's something for anyone in the area. I would think Scout would have some chargers on site (even if not open public chargers) for anyone picking up or for demo rides etc.

    Cloth seats

    I don't like cloth seats, my wife's old car had cloth seats and they got ruined with stains from our dogs. The leather or faux leather seats can be just wiped down and look good as new again. We do tend to use dog covers but sometimes dirt still gets through. Same for any general spillages etc.

    VW ID.7 Pro S covers 585 Miles (941 km)

    What was the speed for that? I saw 29 kilometers on the dash, was that the average speed? If so that's only 18 mph. I'm pretty sure I could get my Tesla Model 3 close to 600 miles in good temperatures at that steady speed.

    Ideas for Scout Engineers

    Just make sure it’s proper sensors for the rain sensing wipers and not a camera based system like Tesla that doesn’t work properly.

    Range extender - please adjust spec to 250 miles of EV Range

    I’m assuming it would just be on all the time, keeping the battery level as best as possible immediately from a high state of charge, rather than waiting until the battery gets to a lower percentage before kicking on.

    December 2024 Scout Production Center Construction Update

    I’ve seen a couple, one black wrapped. I kind of like seeing them but I like seeing others with them, wouldn’t actually want it myself!

    Range extender - please adjust spec to 250 miles of EV Range

    Yes, but on the harvester model, I don’t see that happening on the ev only part, it’d need the gas generator to do round trip. EV only will no problem.

    Range extender - please adjust spec to 250 miles of EV Range

    In that case, definitely no way without using the Harvester, even if they did up the range on the EV portion a decent amount. Would be doable in the EV only version though.

    Range extender - please adjust spec to 250 miles of EV Range

    Depending on where is S Utah, it's around 120 miles from Vegas to St. George so might be doable if you start the trip at 100% and charge back to 100% before leaving without needing the harvester. Would be very close though I suspect.

    3 Years

    I think they'll just do a limited number of deliveries at the end of 2027 to meet the goal of 2027. I have a feeling that most of us will be getting our Scout in 2028 but that's just my thought.
