New Traveler Color Concept - Satin White Traveler

[R1TVT]

I agree they do look very bright here, but I'm not opposed to that. Makes the side of the vehicle more visible to other motorists in the dark. I agree too, I noticed the Harvester location was very well lit. Had to be intentional.

These lights (at least on other vehicles that have them, including my R1T) would turn "ON" when the vehicle is parked and unlocked (as part of a lighting setting) FYI.

So, they would likely remain un-lit when in DRIVE (not making the vehicle more visible to other motorists). Either way, looks like Scout may not provide these specific door handle lights at launch.

There are some great lighting features that can be helpful for things like Camp Mode that could be enabled... TBD how Scout will deploy their version of Camp Mode in production, but here's how Rivian did it for reference, since much of this could be easily enabled through SW: https://stories.rivian.com/software-update-camping

Here's a pic (someone else's) of the puddle light:

I know they are showcasing this color live in SC now, but is the image posted a rendering?

To do a shot like the one above requires shooting multiple shots (without lights exposing for the car, without lights exposing for the background, then with just brake lights, another with just side lights, another with front lights, etc., etc). Then all those photos are layered into one image. It does make it look sort of "fake" sometimes, but it is a real photograph, scene and vehicle.

We even had a fake inflatable "moon" light...

Agreed. Even though my Rivian has protruded handles it still helps to have them back lit in very dark areas.

However, a bright puddle light could suffice though.

I should qualify my other answer to say the way they are lit on the concept may not make it to the production version.

Here’s hoping the lit handles make it, they look so good

As always, thanks for replying directly Jamie. I figured it was real since it's being shown in that color.

Ohh yea, I know the puddle lights wouldn't be on under normal driving, but I was more interested in the door handles potentially being lit while driving. I'm all about making vehicles more visible in the dark.

Honestly I like the raw photos just as much if not more. I mean the one with just the guy squatting and taking a picture of his rig will be all of us at some point.

If they’re amber (front) and red (rear), I think they would be legal. But if they’re white or all one color, I don’t think they can operate when the vehicle is in motion. The regulations are specific on color, minimum number, and location of side marker lamps. But they’re a little less well-defined on total number and locations of extra lamps. But color is a big deal. So if Scout wants to have them on while driving, I think they need to be amber for the front doors and probably red for the rear doors. That might mess up the aesthetic? I don’t know.

Yea it would be weird if they had to be separate colors, I agree.

Thank you so much for sharing these BTS pics Jamie! It's always fun to see productions in the works.
