  • 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 would prefer not to have the "whine" that some hybrids and stuff have. Those are very annoying. Make it the wind through the cornfield...

    I thought about that, then I thought about the brand and making the association between a highly efficient EV and a gas guzzling V8. It...

    My impression when I watched "The Sound of Scout" video that @cyure linked to above was that the pedestrian awareness noise might be the...

    Seems to me the general consensus around here is that Scout is hitting the right balance between screens and buttons. Some might hew...

    I think that is the point. iCE vehicles always sound similar so sometimes you naturally tune them out. With a UFO (or angels humming in...

    My only experience with Tesla and VW is with rentals and a couple of rides in Ubers, so not extensive. All I know is that the Rivian SW...

    Yes, the long wheelbase of the Terra did ultimately lead me to reserving the Traveler instead. I could be swayed to go back to Terra if...
