Real Bench Seat

  • 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.
I’ve owned vehicles with the old school bench seats, and newer vehicles with bench seat/flip down console, it’s NOT the same when the middle section is stationary, it’s VERY uncomfortable.
I’m begging you PLEASE
bring back the original design, 50/50 split adjustable or all three adjustable.
Thank you
Good suggestion and welcome to the community!

The concept shows the driver and passenger are independent from the center
Here’s pictures my husband took at Nats that shows the back of the bench seat. I think it’s easier to see from the back.

That is a "pre-production" version of the bench seat - I don't think that is what we will be getting.

I'm guessing there will be a lot more people looking for "fold-down / console version" in the center that we see in most pick-ups with bench seats today, which is more like a 60/40 split adjustable bench or a "40/20/40"
