February 2026 Scout Production Center Update

  • 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.

Yeah. Not sure it makes it to production but there are grooves in floor for tie downs and it extends to tailgate and they had cushions in the prototype that slide out onto the tailgate. Cool feature

I was able to get some photos of the cargo area at the LA Auto Show last November. I agree, cool feature.

A little bonus for the forum showing the 3D CAD work done to plan for the entire 1.3 million square foot body shop:

Absolutely amazing! Thanks Jamie! It’s pretty weird to me that the robots are in one pic, but then there’s another looking like the robots are months away from entering the building. The CAD though is a cool image of what will be. . . .

These images are over a month old now. We have another update coming soon, but there has been a lot of daily progress.

That just tells you how efficiently they're building this thing. As soon as part of the building is weather-proof, they're installing ductwork, wiring, equipment, robots, etc. Also, I have no clue how long it takes to get 700+ robots delivered. I'm guessing they can't just order them from Amazon, haha.

Somehow I’m guessing they were the first things ordered when this project started.
