It should have a center headrest. That's an important safety feature. I don't want to break my neck if someone rear-ends my Scout.

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.
For the bench seat? It will have headrests in the appropriate locations.
According to American law, it is not mandatory to have a center headrest in the rear seat. I hope Scout recognizes the importance of this item.
So long as it is removable. When only hauling 2 passengers on a regular basis I don’t like the center headrest due to rear visibility. So if it’s removable it’s available for rear center passengers if they need it
Maybe they can make it adjustable?
Current headrests can be adjusted up-and-down for different driver heights, maybe there is a way to make the center headrest even more-so. When there is no passenger in the center of the seat, the headrest can be pushed down so it is level with the seat. That way you don't have to worry about misplacing the headrest if you want clear viability out the back. You would have less space for a fold down console, but that seems like a reasonable trade off.
Agreed but I suspect kids might think otherwise. That’s sacred space for media, juice boxes, hot wheels and toy ponies. Could get ugly back there
Thank you very much. From what I've seen so far, this community is excellent!
My Mini has a button on it that makes the head rest fold flat.and then it opens up the rear visibility.
Scout. “People. Connections. Community. Authenticity." Welcome to the Scout community. Enjoy the ride.
If rear visibility is anything like my Bronco with that spare, folding down the headrests isn’t going to make any difference.
One of the few luxury/tech features I’d consider is a digital rear view. Every time I drive a vehicle with one it’s like magic. If it’s not an option (or it gets bundled with a bunch of junk I don’t want) I’ll for sure add one of the wolf box ones.

I’m cool with a digital rear view, like a back up camera, but if they use the rear view mirror as the screen, I’ll probably never use it unless the physical view is completely blocked. I’ve tried them before and the view is limited, there’s no way to easily/quickly adjust to see something just out of range, and moving your head to one side or the other doesn’t work. Having an extra rear view on the screen might be ok though.
As a remote sensing scientist, I’ll never use cameras/screens as my primary rear-view or side-view option. Mirrors operate at light speed. Cameras are so much slower that they’re useless for safety when safety matters most.
