I would not read too much into level 2 vs 2+. Level 2 is technically defined and covers a broad range of possibilities. The key thing is that the driver is always responsible for continually monitoring and ready to take over instantly. 2+ is just an informal way of saying “really advanced level 2 features”. Even Tesla fsd is still level 2 because they won’t accept liability, so they require constant attention from the driver. The real difference in the definition is what is required of the driver. Advanced level 2 systems (blue cruise, super cruise, fsd, &c.) typically monitor the driver to ensure they have their eyes on the road. Level 3 means you don’t have to constantly monitor, but you have to be ready to take over as needed, say with 10 seconds warning., as far as I know, only Mercedes offers this, and only at low speeds in very specific areas. Level 4 means the car can drive in limited situations, eg on the freeway it can drive significant distances while you watch a video or read. Technically you could argue that waymo is level 4, and no one is level 5.

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.
Will just wait and see - VW does not seem to use the 2+ term. They have IQDrive, but also Travel Assist - but both are called Level 2. But basic IQDrive has lane assist, while the newest Travel added lane centering and newest versions also control passing apparently.
He did. @Jamie@ScoutMotors can we please get clarification. In the newest interview “The Benj” says level 2 and you have stated level 2+. Which one will our Scouts have? Please and thank you.
I’m going to rely on Jamie’s number. How often in the heat of a conversation or presentation does anyone slip and not get an occasional word or point slightly skewed in the moment. Jamie posts stuff after reading and digesting. Chris was giving a response to a question and stated what his brain recalled at the moment

Toxic Pennsylvania mineland is about to become a big solar farm
A Pennsylvania township approved a 265-MW solar project that would clean up toxic former mineland and generate power for about 200,000 homes.

There's no standardized, official difference between Level 2 ADAS and Level 2+ ADAS. The term "Level 2+" is marketing.
Ionna is expanding at a fantastic rate.
