For my Harvester Buddies, Oil Prices expected to drop. Cheaper gas for us finally. Gas prices dropping only took 4 years of rising for it to finally drop.

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.
Dam, and right as some of my old lab mates moved out to West Texas.
It’s to see how sucky the painting is done, and how resistant the panels are.
Audi is gonna keep Scout making money! It might not be too bad after all. The question is what is this thing going to look like? Obviously not as beautiful as a Scout, because we all know as you get richer your taste of style seems to drop.
And it looks like it’s not coming out until 2028.
That might be the answer for some of the members here that want $100k+ of features in their $60k SUV...
I'm optimistic that Audi will do a good job and NOT make it look like the rest of their vehicles. It's not like Mercedes's G looks like the rest of their lineup. Hopefully they use parts compatible with our Scouts so we can maybe pilfer an upgrade or two from their part's bin.

I wonder if they'll try and do a SUV version with a modern take on the old Audi Quattro that they won the WRC and play off that off-road rally type heritage.
It was hinted at the reveal by SM and VEAG members if that helps. Wasn’t stated publicly but I’m sure 4-6 months after Scouts start rolling out Audi will announce start of production
Oh man, I've been watching for this one for a while.
This was the one I was originally interested in to replace my Jeep ZJ. But the Scout was more to my taste.
That said, there are some interesting parallels to draw here.
- They have a 100KWh battery, and 250 miles of range.
- So at best a 2.5 miles per KWh efficiency.
- $65k
- Mechanical lockers
- UP to 33in tires.
- A different gearing range on the rear axle for the offroad trim (I am a bit surprised we didn't see the 2 speed gearbox they patented for EV's... maybe that will be for the actual wrangler EV, as teh Recon is supposed to be a step down from the Wrangler in offroad prowess
And it sounds like their launch edition is a special MOAB edition for the $65,000. I have the 2013 MOAB edition of my Wrangler and it came with all the options available at the time. Special wheels, steel bumpers, etc. I’m curious to see what the Recon comes with for that price.
But 350 miles has never been claimed as base. My guess is recon will get an upgrade battery option as well

We put the ElectricFish 350Squared, which delivers 350 kilowatts without utility upgrades, to the test during our 2026 SUV of the Year evaluations.
Got to agree with you on this.
On Scouts website it says up to 350 miles for BEV
Harvester is a different story it says 500+miles
2026 Jeep Recon EV Lets You Do Wrangler-Like Things, and the 650-HP Model Starts at $67K
Starting at $66,995, Jeep's second EV SUV can go doorless and delivers 650 hp—a lot more than the V-8-powered Wrangler.

I wouldn’t buy one but I’m really curious what features you get for $67,000. We all keep wondering what the Scout features will be for the price and this is the only EV off road vehicle that I can think of that’s coming out to get some sort of idea.2026 Jeep Recon EV Lets You Do Wrangler-Like Things, and the 650-HP Model Starts at $67K

I wouldn't be comparing them. Scout is a total different beast, young and fresh blood. Jeeps are old and washed up, and let alone overly expensive.
