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.
Isn't the visualizer coming out this year?
This is a general question. Not pushing for it to come out now! So no need to delay! @Jamie@ScoutMotors

I'm looking forward to a configurator, may change my mind back in favor of pre-ordering again.
A question on the EREV versions:
I keep hearing conflicting reports about what happens once the battery has been drained. If the battery is depleted but the gas tank is full, can the vehicle still be driven normally? Or driven, but with reduced performance? If the latter is the case, what sort of performance hits can we expect?

Generator will kick on befoe the battery is depleted completely.
But for more information about this @Jamie@ScoutMotors would be the guy to answer this better.
And if you drive to the end of the 500 mile range, both the tank and the battery will be empty (or nearly so). So if you fill up with gas at that point, you now have a full tank and an empty battery. What happens? Do you have to sit for a while and let the generator run to charge the battery at least partially, or can you just drive off, using what the generator puts out? If so, how is performance affected?
Basically, will the generator put out enough to drive the car with somewhat acceptable performance if the battery has been depleted.
Nobody knows exactly what happens. It’s like the December 31, 2019. What happens next is only a guess and Jamie really is the source but short of digging through the various threads and guessing everyone is just waiting as patiently as they can
