  • 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.

    North Carolina Scouts

    Woot! To quote Petey Pablo, "Come on and raise up!" ? I'm from Pittsboro. Still not registered, though I plan on picking up a Traveler (preferably the Harvester)... I'm building a house right now and can barely convince my wife to eat a meal out, so putting down $100 on a car that I can't...

    What are y'all hoping Scout Community UX™ might bring?

    Aww yeah! Glad to hear it. I really feel like it's an untapped opportunity for car manufacturers and Scout would be such a great brand to usher it in! ?

    Extra, Extra....Read All About It!

    Apologies if this has already been shared somewhere in here (I didn't check all 21 pages of this thread, haha! ?) but I recently stumbled upon an interesting interview conducted by YouTuber New Legend 4x4 with John Glancy, one of the authors behind International Scout Encyclopedia. Check it out...

    Size comparison

    This is really helpful for getting a good handle on the size! I'm pretty sure y'all are already familiar with it, but I really love the website https://www.carsized.com/. That said, it only includes cars that have been released to the public (I think, at least) and the new Scout isn't up there...

    What are y'all hoping Scout Community UX™ might bring?

    Glad you're digging this discussion! ? I really do think there's a lotta potential here with this UX. And I'm loving your idea of using icons for seamless switching between different phones in the car + the lock to stop any unwanted connections from happening. I'm a big music lover and road...

    The Terra does college football

    Oh, right on! The Terra really does look awesome — congrats on the reserve. I sent the Scout reveal video to my brother who is a contractor (currently building my house :)) and he's got one in his sights now. I think the Traveler is going to be the right ride for these grubby paws as soon as I...

    Been playing the game Forza Horizon 5 tonight... here's a YouTube video of some gameplay (not me) featuring a Scout 800A. If there are any other gamers in this group, give me a shout!

    The Terra does college football

    Heyo Carolina neighbor! I'm from NC and live in Pittsboro just outside of UNC Chapel Hill... hoping they'll trek it on up to see us, as well! ? And nice pics! Cool to see that they took the Terra out on the field. Did you get any shots of the Traveler as well?
