Franchise. The one I went to in Lake Bluff Illinois was in a group that had BMW and Land Rover as well.

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.
Okay Makes sense, in NJ our INEOS Dealership used to be at a Outdoor Motorsport shop. Now it seems its a real franchise.
Thats another perfect way for Scout to do it. Use motorsport stores and set strict regulations. Which most Motorsport stores are pretty strictly set.
back to interiors lol.

Well... a modern take on that could be very cool.Oh, so maybe Scout shouldn't do the Pierre Cardin interior treatment like AMC in 1972-1973. Too busy?

The one in Charleston appears to be a Rick Hendrick store, so franchise it appears.
I would prefer natural wood trim pieces over plastic and carbon fiber. Carbon fiber has a place. Love it in the Supra, but Scout doesn’t look like a vehicle that would have carbon fiber inside.
I would too, but costs have to be considered. An alternative are recycled and repurposed materials. There is a lot you can do with stuff that would otherwise be waste.
My boy Hendrick! Biggest cheater in NASCAR lol. When I was in Charlotte for the Coke 600, My mini was needed oil, I went to his BMW store and they were actually way nicer than I was expecting since every dealership I've been too they are scumbags. They gave me 2 bottles of oil for the price of one probably since they knew a lot of people were traveling that weekend.
Recycled materials are way better than natural, hemp wood is fast growing, I would even like to see the option of bamboo, since it's a fast-growing grass. And for leather alternatives, I hope Scout doesn't cheap out on the cactus leather, like how BMW has done a few times with their eco-friendly leathers early on. Especially with the new trend of making it a thin piece that's almost vinyl like that splits after a year of use. It should be at least a 3 mm or 1/8" thick.
I don't know how VW's eco leather is. But my understanding is that the interiors will be in house.

I would like to see more clothing and shoes get recycled into new products rather than dumped.
My BMW dealer is nice up here, they probably hate me since I negotiate the service/Maintenace pricing, but they always lower it for me. I never service them at my place of work since I don't want my boss to think I'm doing my cars service for free lol.
We also need Easter eggs in the interior. My Wrangler has little tiny Jeeps in various places. Windshield corner, etc. I think the Prius had little hashtags in the interior. Maybe the Scout could have little tiny compasses printed in various hidden spots. Something like that.
That’s a great idea! A Scout always uses a compass, whether it’s the one in their head or the one in their hand.
I think cork would be a cool finish. It doesn’t all look like classroom cork boards and then in theory you could by Scout pins and collect them-in a location that isn’t shrapnel when an airbag goes off
I love the idea of using stuff like deadstock fabric for upholstery. Those Pierre Cardin interiors were rad. I wish car interiors still looked like that. Everything looks very sporty and futuristic now. I miss the clean and simple lines of the past. Maybe seats are comfier now, though. I know our vinyl bench seat wasn’t the most comfortable in the world compared to the back seat I have in my Prius. I’m the kind of person who can take a nap anywhere, but I can take a quality nap in a 21st century car, I suppose.
How about a pale olive green. Too military-like? What about a gray wool suit type material with a subtle pin stripe. That could be unique if done right
I keep thinking greys. Medium grey where you sit. But olive green now that’s unique. I would like to see that. Just no alcantara.
