Ideas for Battery

  • 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.

Hello everyone,

I'll keep this one much shorter. I think it would be a pretty epic strategic partnership for Scout to purchase the Gemini battery from Our Next Energy. This would hopefully drastically increase the range for the all electric model, AND would use all U.S. manufacturing. USA based companies and supply chain is a pretty good bet to hedge with the current political atmosphere and could really propel the the vehicle in the US Market.

Our range-extended dual-chemistry battery can power 600+ miles on a single charge. Taking electric cars further than they’ve ever been.

That’s a cool idea and I am onboard for graphene batteries, but I will point out that this is giving range for a sedan. Mileage will vary for larger cars. When they don’t give up costs outright, that means they’re not cheap. It’s stuff to keep in mind and graphene is not cheap. Yet. I’m not pooping on the parade, just pointing out a couple of things that are important to point out. 😕 I do think that it’s a good idea, though!

VW is already tied into companies developing batteries for their vehicles. Connecting to another company would be non-productive unless a business merger could happen. Not against the technology but another company doesn’t make sense unless ownership is viable
