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

  • 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.
I feel like it’s a misinterpretation of something similar to what Jamie said in that podcast, something along the lines of one model will come first, look up in reference to Traveler v Terra but not necessarily the powertrain. Because the traveler is clearly the popular of the two.
Exactly. That’s how I took it was traveler would come out, with both powertrains.

exactly what I was thinking after the podcast, which I think is very reasonable, I would struggle with my patience if they launch the Terra without BEV but I don’t see that happening
Yeah especially because I remember in another interview Scott mentioning that EREV and BEV can use one line because the both utilize the same motors, just one needs a few extra parts for Harvester. Making production lines cleaner because it’s less lines needing to be operating. Instead of 4 you only need 2.

So wether intentional or not people are now assuming BEV may never see the roads?
I wouldn’t take anything this guy posts too seriously. He’s still busy telling people the Harvester Terra will only tow 5k lb. Even though final specs are still not announced, and Jamie has said on this forum that they’re working to get higher numbers.

I know, but looking through some of the comments, people are believing the title and thumbnail

I saw romr comment back to someone yesterday that was asking for close to 10,000lbs towing and he replied something along the lines of you will be very happy to see the numbers.

Yea, but most of those people won’t bother to read anything, or watch more than 3 minute video clips, lol. They’re the type of people who just eat up bad news from any source.

I attempted to find the quote from the podcast, but I don’t have time to sit through the entire thing again tonight to pull the quote but the the just I got was (at least from Jamie in this instance) the EREV and BEV are not considered different “models” because if I’m not mistaken, there was reference to there being two models, those would be the Terra and the Traveler with the BEV and EREV somewhat interchangeable. So if this is the case for the majority of Scout employees it’s very easy to see where they could refer to models and journalists and the public assume there will be four models, two trucks and two SUVs one with a generator and one that is fully electric of each. 🤷 that’s just my more complete take away after having time to chew on my thoughts.
