  • 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.
Rear spare is an option. If you go with 33”,s on the rims the spare will mount below and you save roughly 17-20”. Forget the exact depth
17" difference with tire. 207.9" vs 190.9". Has it been determined if the Harvester nullifies mounting the spare underneath? It would be impressive if they both fit.

I don’t know if they ever said at the reveal but I feel like they implied the base wheel (18”) would fit under but I genuinely don't recall the final answer to that question. Maybe @Jamie@ScoutMotors can add some clarity to this item

Isnt the tire carrier removable? If you get the 35”? I feel like ive seen photos of it off the traveler.
The rear carrier is definitely an option. My recollection at reveal is a 35 would fit under the BEV but no answer was given about Harvester. The carrier-if I recall can handle up to 37 but the threshold where the spare can’t fit under was never defined other than the larger spare on Terra would need to be bed mounted. Sorry my brain’s gotten a bit foggy on all that

When you say “mount below”, is that inside or outside the vehicle? Ie, under the floor or pulled up underneath?
 
Saw this in London and couldn’t help myself. Just thought-wow-a purpose built vehicle

I’m a big fan of small, last-mile delivery vehicles. We desperately need them in downtown Charleston. Instead we have more tourists than ever and tractor trailer delivery trucks on European city size streets.
 
As compared to my 2017 Land Rover Discovery, the Traveler is actually a few inches shorter *without* the spare tire carrier, but a fair bit longer with it. This will make it difficult to fit in my garage without removing the carrier or doing some serious garage Tetris.

The Traveler is about 2" inches taller, though not clear if that includes any EAS on the Traveler, and it is a couple inches wider than my Discovery, both with and without mirrors, again probably requiring some garage re-arrangement and necessitating backing out of my garage before passengers can get in, as well as always folding mirrors.

Even with my EAS in 'access height' (all the way lowered) in my Disco, it's a fair bit of a climb in. I added rock sliders with tree bars, which makes this easier for my 5'2" mother to climb in and out of.

Notably the wheelbase of the Traveler is 5" longer which impacts break over angle, recovered somewhat with slightly higher body ground clearance on 35" tires, but with solid axles I'm not sure the ground clearance below the pumpkin(s) will compare - 4W independent suspension on 33" tires with EAS lifting has gotten me over obstacles that thwarted friends' lifted 4Runners and a Raptor, both on 35's, even when I get one corner in the air. They had to take different lines with different risks to clear.

Looking forward to seeing one in person. The R1S is quite large and my point of reference....

I am looking forward to seeing a Traveler in person as well.
