Extra, Extra....Read All About It!

  • 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.
New Mercedes-Benz EV Road Tests Prove 1,000km Range Is Achievable

Mercedes-Benz has begun road testing its first electric vehicle (EV) equipped with a lithium-metal solid-state battery, confirming that a 1,000km (620-mile) range is achievable—a major step forward in electric mobility. The prototype vehicle, based on the EQS model, integrates cutting-edge battery technology co-developed with Factorial Energy, marking a significant milestone in battery efficiency, energy density, and safety.

A Leap in Battery Technology
Developed by Mercedes AMG High Performance Powertrains (HPP) and the Mercedes-Benz Center of Competence for Battery Systems, the solid-state battery replaces liquid electrolytes with a solid one, improving energy density and safety. The new battery system offers 25% more range than a comparable EQS battery of the same weight and size, reaching a projected driving range of over 1,000 km.

 
Scary future????

Who knew it was 2020 all over again? Defacing and destroying a company(Tesla) due to political stance. That should be allowed! They all should face jail time. Burning Teslas that are on the lot. Shooting windows out. Like what is this crap? People need to toughen up and stop being such cry babies.
