  • 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.

    Favorite Trader Joe’s product

    That sounds really cool! Omelettes are certainly one of my favorites, and I love hearing about interesting stores like that. It’s great when staple stores like grocery or home goods are very unique. Oh yeah definitely worth it in my opinion.

    Favorite Trader Joe’s product

    Trader Joe’s is neat but has anyone heard of Jungle Jim’s? That’s worth a road trip! I believe it may also be the largest grocery store in the country. Aisles for almost every country, completely themed, great bakery, gigantic wine and whiskey selections. About every kind of cheese you can...

    In what movie franchise would you like to see the new Scout make an appearance?

    Next season of Reacher, or the Punisher would be pretty slick

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

    I’m torn on this. So I’ve already swapped back and forth twice. This trip for example in my model 3, from 100% charge was 292 miles til empty then trip down here on vacation I arrived with 39% battery (not advised to go below 20%). Only one level 2 charger that estimated 3.5 hours to get to 80%...

    Emotional connection without engine sound?

    It’s wild actually I’d agree. When I first got my Bronco I thought it was too quiet for a v6 twin turbo so I added a high clearance exhaust. Sounded awesome outside of it, but commuting and highway it got old very fast. Put the stock exhaust back on it before trading and it was a much more...

    The Road to Scout Production - All the latest updates in one place...

    I agree, the anticipation is fun and then being able to finally build to spec of what we actually want will be nice. Hopefully no major parts constraints and delays like Bronco had on rollout. I was a reservation holder that kept being pushed back so ended up grabbing one with 1400 miles used at...

    Why are incentives gone? I saw on the deposit form or elsewhere it said below 60k with incentives.

    The Road to Scout Production - All the latest updates in one place...

    Yeah thats my issue also. I couldn't grab the bronco base model but had to get the Wildtrak with the 35'' tires, Sasquatch Hoss 3.0 suspension etc. Hopefully tires and a lift packe OEM with cabana top isnt bank breaking lol

    The Road to Scout Production - All the latest updates in one place...

    Aren’t they quoting $50-60k with the EV incentive to start? I’m sure plenty upgrades and higher trim packages but starting it under 60 isn’t horrible. Maybe they will also offer a ton of accessories that can be chosen down the road. At least at a minimum it will be dual motor with off roader...

    South Carolina Breaks Ground on Scout Motors Drive I-77 Interchange

    Very exciting for the area, should bring a ton of jobs. Agree with the above, solar would be a very smart move there i think.

    Scout Color Poll #1

    Thank you! Actually just traded in my Bronco Wildtrak for a used Tesla model 3 to save on gas and pay things off. I miss it, but I’m looking forward to the scout ev and will be able to charge in my garage and have an off roader again. Really excited for the return!

    Scout Color Poll #1

    Definitely looking forward to some neat colors. Orange on the proto type and sky blue would be my favorites, followed by bright green I think. Loving retro theme
