  • 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.

    More positive feedback on those scroll wheels - they are all the rage for sure. Great design by Rivian to improve the user experience...

    This was a much better experience than when I test drove the R1S. That time they just handed me the keys and left and I didn’t even...

    AM I understand why it doesn’t have it due to the frequency of the High Voltage Battery but to eliminate FM entirely is not a bold choice

    Good afternoon all. Went to the Rivian factory in Normal today with my son so he could test drive an R2. He has an Elantra N and wants...

    I agree with pretty much everything you are saying, and the R1 could make you "spoilt" for sure, but the "luxury" part of the R1 is...

    No, and not planning to go out of my way to do that with no intention of buying one. I have an R1T and a Terra pre-order - no SUV for...

    Interesting! My R1T has a built-in FM radio tuner, but I guess no more.

    My son said the exact same thing about no AM/FM radio.

    I got to drive the R2 and was very impressed by the way it drives compared to other models in its class. The tech was very impressive...

    I thought he would say the same but he said after being in it and playing with those scroll wheels and the screen that’s it was fine.

    I've definitely got some interest in the R3X as well, but only if they give me some buttons.
