Smart. I tried to do something similar but came out less. In retrospect, I think your numbers are better.

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.
Correct measurements
Scout Traveler dimensions
79.9 wide minus mirrors
207.9 long with tire carrier
190.9 without tire carrier
I’m a little old school, and hope to have smaller wheels and more sidewall. BFG KO3 33 X 12.50 - 18 (Load Index 125) would love to see how this looks, and if Scout might offer a 33 versus 35 factory option.
There were comments made at event for 32/33 and 35’s
There will be a number of different wheel and tire combinations available at launch. The smallest wheel that will fit at this stage is an 18" wheel.
Dunno if this helps anyone but a new model year Ford Explorer is 199” long and the same 79” wide. So the Traveler is 9~” shorter than an Explorer when it doesn’t have the spare on the back. I imagine that could also give a little perspective for potential interior space.
Yeah I saw the ev hummer in a showcase and it didn’t look too big. I really don’t think parking will be that much of an issue. I’m all for the size!
Try driving this in Philly or DC, the traveler is actually about the same size while being taller & thats going to be a problem in parking garages

Having seen it in person it isn’t as big as the EV Hummer. And also not as expensive
You simply will never please everybody. But I have to chime in just to try to prevent the Traveler from being changed to something I find far less desirable.
ITS TOO TALL - no, it's not. It may be too tall for some people granted, especially if you are used to driving a car. But tall is relative. My F250 with stock sized tires and stock suspension is 83" tall (before the roof rack I put on top of that. My LJ is shorter - about 73" before the roof rack - but it is still 83" with the rack. My wife's Rubicon is right at 76" as well - abet that is with 35" tires (it was factory 33").
If you compare this to other full sized SUVs and trucks - it is sized accordingly (if anything slightly smaller, only 2 rows of seats, only a 5.5' bed). My biggest fear before the reveal is it would be sub sized - andother miniture immitation of the real thing. In all fairness - yes, it is taller than full sized SUV's - but they wanted it to claim "offroad" and those vehicles were never designed to be driven on anything worse than a poorly maintained farm to market road.

saying it was about the same size as a crew cab F250 is hogswash. That F250 is 30" longer than the Traveler with a tire sticking off it's tailgate. I would have to measure the exact F250 you drove - but my F250 (which is stock) is also 7" taller. Side by side it will dwarf the Traveler.
Honestly, it is shorter than the current single cab F150.

What???
The actual posted dimensions (Traveler w spare tire rack) by a Scout representative has it a inch longer and 2-3 inches taller than my F-250 Tremor with a Carli suspension and 35” tires
Length is 208” with carrier and 190.##” without optional carrier. Having seen it in person it is tall. It’s basically 76”. That said the proportions are beautiful. If it feels too big then it may feel too big from your perspective/needs and that’s cool. But strictly from design it is very well proportioned
My lifted F250 with 35”tires fits into a 74” max height car wash with room to spare and it’s like 203” with the hitch
Personally it’s large for our needs but I’m not complaining & it is bigger than our GV80 but such is life as long as it’s got great power boards like AMP dual motors ones
