  • 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 love the R3. Its the exact vehicle i've been waiting for in terms of size/style. Just need to figure out a way to take the roof off.....

    So what does everyone think of the first new Scout designs...

    Honestly, I think it looks too bulky. Also looks a lot like the new Land Cruiser. Hopefully I'm proven wrong once real images come out!

    What Are You Driving Now?

    2016 Hyundai Veloster Love the shorter wheelbase Hate the capability

    2 Door

    Can we make the battery thicker to offset the shorter wheel base? Does center of gravity become a concern? I personally would sacrifice some range if it means I can get a 2-door.

    What do you love or hate about other off-road vehicles

    Other off-road vehicles are typically horrible daily drivers. I am only going to own 1 vehicle, and I need it to be comfortable. It'd be awesome to see some luxury interior options. I like off-roaders because I can take the doors and roof off when the weather is nice. I also love the retro...
