No interior carpet

  • 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 agree: cleaning carpet sucks. It looks gross within a short amount of time unless it’s dark or mottled and it’s so much more practical to use a weatherproof lining. If there is going to be carpeting, it needs to be very dark and forgiving of various gross stains.

Would be nice to find an alternate recycled material that can clean like rubber but feel like carpet. I typically get both and alternate from warm weather to cold/snow/muck weather. I just want it to have a decent appearance, rubber mats suck on most vehicles.
Ideally line base/floor with rubber then provide mats that look like carpet for those of use wanting a more refined finish look. Not all of us intend to use this as a dirty work/play vehicle.
 
The interior team is well aware of the request for a "waterproof" trim. The fact that they brought it up is a good sign for those that want this feature. If you want it, keep bringing it up. Scout listens to their customers.
