  • From all of us at Scout Motors, welcome to the Scout Community! We created this community to provide Scout 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 debate is welcomed and often produces 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.

    The part that says VW is going to build a truck of their own using the Scout platform. That doesn’t seem to make sense.

    Welcome and Introductions!

    Since we’re sharing opinions I will share mine. The original IH Scouts were truly special. I owned one and I appreciated it for what it was. That said, who would have ever thought we would see a new Scout? Even more shocking to me is that it’s a German company that is making it happen. I am...

    Things to Avoid

    This weekend my wife’s x5 45e (plug in hybrid) died/bricked on a parking lift. Long story short the 12v battery, not the big lithium hybrid battery died. When that happens every thing dies including the power tailgate that lacks a manual release. The 52lb group 94 R battery resides in the...

    Is EV demand really tanking?

    Highly unlikely to have a 3+ hour charge stop.

    Not a fan

    I think a IH event would send a strong message. However, I would fully expect SM to have something at the Detroit Auto Show. The coverage will just be so much larger for the greater audience.
