Interior - hardwood option for hemp wood

[TacomaDKR]

Good morning everyone, I’m new to the forum but wanted to give a suggestion. The interior design is beautiful. The piece that seems out of place is the hemp wood. I know it’s sustainable and maybe it’s just the pictures - but it looks like cheap plywood to me. I think a wood accent makes perfect sense with the design intent. I’d just rather see an American hardwood like black walnut instead. Hopefully there will be some options as the design progresses!

Welcome to the community! Last week we just got to see some off road accessories and a new wheel. I’m sure as time goes on we will be seeing new interior options as well. There’s lots of info on here and search will be your friend. If you can’t find something certainly ask and someone will help out. A great follow is @Jamie@ScoutMotors. He keeps us updated from the manufacturer side. Welcome again.

Welcome to the forum!
Having been at the reveal and seeing it up close it is beautiful but I get it may not be everyone’s cup of tea. I have noted on occasion I’d like to see the material with a warm gray finish as it is a bit “orange” to me if that makes sense. I’m always drawn to warm gray toned woods so while the hemp had a beautiful depth to it I can certainly understand where you are coming from. The traveller was done with the textured fabric/textile which I’ll assume might be an option as well

Thanks for the closeup pictures.

Maybe I missed the new accessories? What thread is that on?

This one. So this one has a bumper with a winch and a brush guard and the different wheels. Now that I think about it is a different bumper considered an accessory?

Happy Friday!

A little bonus for everyone. We teased this at the reveal in one of the slides, but here is a look (more coming next week) at a Scout Traveler off-road concept. This features a few design and accessory elements that our teams have been exploring. No promises, but our teams will be reading the comments...

Have a great Memorial Day weekend!

Right now we are being spoon fed the Scout build options. We just need to sit back and wait to see what offerings come. Multiple wood options have been discussed. Hardwoods could be offered.

Scout. “People. Connections. Community. Authenticity." Welcome to the Scout community. Enjoy the ride.

I have no eye for design and I have issues with sensory overload.

I’d prefer a single, soft “cloth-like” interior that’s easy to clean. No accent threads, no chrome (too many reflections while driving), no wood, no piano black… Just all one color and one texture except for the controls, which should be different enough to be easy to see. Those door pictures show something like a dozen different colors, textures, and surfaces. That’s just too much for me—give me an all flat dark grey, soft interior. I know, I’m boring.

I can’t imagine they won’t have a black/dark grey interior. Every manufacturer has something like that it seems.

I am, however, the complete opposite. Having had all black interior for 12 years I’m ready for something different.

I just hope everyone gets what makes them happy.

Just as long as it isn't piano black. Worst interior design idea ever.

It has its place. It just doesn’t belong in an off-road vehicle in my opinion.

It’s place is locations that aren’t touch points for finger prints of horizontal surfaces that just collect dust. Needs to be vertical applications-IMO

Our Supra has it on the A Pillars. Please don’t put any piano black on the outside of the Scouts. Just asking for scratches.

Absolutely. The worst finger print and dust magnet.

Great side by side. Looking forward to seeing more of the interior options in person

Me too. The hemp is cool but I’d be just has happy with a warm gray stained rift cut white oak or a dark mahogany so long as it looks good with that saddle brown leather because that was stunning in person

 

[J Alynn]

Something like this maybe a hint darker

I like the hemp wood. But I also would like to see a bamboo end grain option.

That could be nice too. I’d prefer it NOT natural but darkened a bit but I like the bamboo idea
