  • 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.

    Deep Dive into EREV - Ramcharger vs Harvester?

    Alex on Autos just did a great deep dive into the new Ramcharger and how it will work complete with numbers. I know we haven't received any detailed numbers from Scout on the Harvester drivetrain but we all live under the same laws of physics and the state of the technology is what it is so...

    Ability to Fit a Snowplow

    I know there have been hints that the new Scouts might be able to fit snowplows to the front but I thought I'd make a thread to emphasize the importance and need for such a capability, specifically for the Traveler which is the vehicle I intend to buy. Currently none of the EV pickups or SUVs...

    If You're Worried About Off-Road Range Look At This

    I know a lot of people have concerns about taking an EV rock crawling and off road and stuff. There aren't many "true" all-electric off roaders yet. But there are some. You might be surprised just how little energy off-roading actually uses!

    Please, No Free Fast Charging Credits

    A common thing companies seem to be doing with new EVs has been to give free fast charging credits on one network or another along with the purchase of a new vehicle. Please Scout, don't do this! As a long time EV driver I have some insight as to why this is a terrible practice that should be...

    EV Sales Aren't Actually in Decline in North America

    I've posted about this a couple of times but given how prevalent the idea that EV sales are on the way down is lately I felt maybe it deserves its own thread in order to discuss. For those who don't follow the industry as closely as I do or don't have a statistical background, it may come as a...

    The Key EV Tech I'm looking for in Scout Vehicles

    I for one am very happy Scout will be all electric. There are no all-electric off road vehicles on the market so Scout will be filling an important and as-yet unmet demand niche. Given that battery electric is indeed the future of all vehicles I've given some thought to the sort of technologies...

    Toggle Switches?

    I recently watched a video about the Ineos Grenadier (https://ineosgrenadier.com/en/ca/the-vehicle/the-grenadier) and while it's way out of my price range it has some features and ideas I'd love to see Scout borrow if possible, specifically big chunky switches that can be operated by winter...

    Battery Chemistry

    I'm starting a thread on battery chemistry because I think it might be an important discussion to have. I'm not sure how far along internal discussions are at Scout as far as batteries go but I'd hope that lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries are being given some serious consideration. The...
