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.
Thats every cyber truck owner when they receive news that their glued trim can fly off. And that their trucks will be taken control of by tesla in 2026 lol. Im only kidding.

Thank you!!! The exact point which i left out since one thats violent and two the US government already has created a solution to the problem and i just looked it up and it seems the FBI is on high alert for these protests. Which have seem to slow down.nah if it was meant to be political he would have considered how often the robots killing people in their homes are considered the good guys
Waiting for my OF to pick up, people like hairy, slightly overweight and sweaty 40 year old dad bods, with big noses right ?I’m now donating plasma and anything else from my body that pays me for my time. Also judging more events on weekends to throw in the vehicle fund.
Gonna pray in two years from now the stock market has stabilized or I may be significantly reducing my dream Scout
I’m thrilled about the new Scout Traveler, which perfectly blends style and functionality in a classic design. I want it in my driveway!
Will be my first personal brand new vehicle in almost twenty years.
Waiting will allow me to finalize my decision on Harvester or no Harvester. I started BEV, then switched to Harvester, but might switch back. Also 3 years will allow me to better judge my longer term use case and improvements in charge infrastructure.
I’ll be at 15 years since first new vehicle for me, but 20 years since I chose the vehicle to purchase. My husband picked the Wrangler as his car and I slowly took it over and gave him my 328i.
It’s not torture if you have fun along the way. The journey to get you there is half the fun.
They’re kinda like zombies though in that pieces seem to fall off…
Both mine were built in Fremont and have been solid. It seems like a CT specific issue.
I'm kinda used to waiting for a new EV to start production unfortunately. I waited two years to get my current ride, an Ioniq 5, so this is about the same. I pre-ordered that one based on the reviews overseas and stuff and was number 78 in line in Canada which was kinda fun. The only thing it got me was a car in the first week of deliveries, no fun swag or anything...oh and people would constantly stop me in parking lots to ask about it since it was so unique compared to all the other cars on the market at the time.
Anyway I'm looking forward to my Scout. It's a little bigger than I'd like so every time I go out driving I have that running through the back of my mind "will I be able to fit in this parking spot in the Traveller? Will I be able to go into the parkade in the Traveller? Are the roofs too low? Will it fit in my driveway behind the Ioniq?" etc.
I really hope actual colours will be offered. I recently spec'd out a Silverado EV just for fun to see and the only colour options for the ones I was looking at were black, white, and grey. I want yellow, or copper, or burnt orange or something. Heck, give me avocado green or harvest gold, go real retro with it like a fridge from the 1970's!

I have to say again if I was buying an EV tomorrow it would be the Ionic 5. It’s like a retro 80’s VW or Honda. It’s retro modern without being based on a previous make/model. I look every time I see one. Just COOL cars
That’s Ioniq 5N looks and sounds amazing. I know, I know. EVs dont need to make sound but it sure is fun. And that Performance blue is a beautiful color.
The one that I kind of like for looks is the Kona Electric. It comes in an extremely bright-ass neon yellow. Nobody will miss you in that. The drawback is that it’s apparently kind of crappy in the “not reliable” sense. Still, it’s cute. I’m really itchy to hear updates about the R3, too. It looks like a cute version of the not-released Scout III.
I looked at that for my daughter but knowing her goal was Texas (from PA) for college was a stretch. But it’s cool.

That R3 is adorable. I really like the R3X but it’s just too small for me. It was the colors that got me. That teal with the orange mirrors really stood out. It’s going to be a while for that one tho I understand. We get a lot of Rivian news in our local news since I’m 15 minutes from the plant. My understanding is they are going to shut down the line at the factory the end of this year to retool for R2. I thought I read somewhere it was going to be at least 2028 before anything started on the R3. And they still have that plant they are trying to build in Georgia and it’s not event started yet.The one that I kind of like for looks is the Kona Electric.

They’d be better to hold off on that plant and use SM plant if capacity truly exists to build that. They are already sharing architecture why not help build them too
