  • 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.

    South Florida Scouts

    Was actually just talking to the team about getting a SoFlo meetup on the books! I'm also down in Miami (when not on the road for work). Have come across a handful of Scouts in Miami here, and know of a handful more up the coast a bit.

    Happy Thanksgiving From Scout!

    Just want to pop in and say, on behalf of the entire team at Scout, Happy Thanksgiving! We're thankful to have each and every one of you along with us on this journey with us as we reinvigorate the Scout brand, and are looking forward to finishing out 2023 strong and ramping up in 2024...

    What Are You Driving Now?

    Loving the build! That color is great, and the kid's seats in the back... can already imagine the stories and memories they'll have when they grow up!

    Last Scout II Tribute

    End of a great era, but coming full circle to inspire the beginning of the next era of automotive. Looking at it in a broad sense, it's a bit poetic... the classic Scout, which marked the beginning of the SUV, and a new era of automotive, back at it inspiring the next era of automotive, which...

    Last Scout II Tribute

    On this day in 1980, the last production Scout II rolled off the assembly line in Fort Wayne, but that wasn't the end. Scouts always come back to lead the way, and this Scout is no different. We recently had the fortune to film and photograph the last Scout II in the studio, generously loaned...

    Scout Motors purchase a Scout II

    Yessir! We're adding to our fleet, and will be purchasing a few more this year. They did a great job building that Scout, and we're excited to start hitting the road with it here very soon! Got our eyes on a few other great sets of wheels, so stay tuned! In the meantime, if you see any...

    The Road to Scout Production - All the latest updates in one place...

    Exactly this! One thing we've noticed is that some of the old historic photography, sketches, archives have been lost, or not a ton was captured at the time. Alongside producing great content that can be used for a broad swath of purposes, we want to preserve the history of the original...

    Behind the scenes from First and Last Scout studio shoot

    Just got off set from a solid three days of shooting in the studio with a few very special Scouts and figured I'd post a few shots from behind the scenes. Obviously we'll be shooting Scouts out in the elements, but getting these two together in the studio where we could put them under some...

    Haha, hang tight on this one, will see what we can do there ;)

    Renders from VW Markets Day Event

    Definitely, front-end is a key thing we want to nail in, wanting it to be signature Scout. Will echo Jamie's mention above, we're still in the design process at the moment, making good headway, but still taking these feedback points and bringing additional input to the teams. We'll definitely...
