Publication Renders

  • 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.

It looks like some publications (car and driver, motor1, etc.) have been doing their own renderings based on the side profile released by Scout Motors. I like some things about them, and I do not like others. I was just checking in on everyone's opinion. Obviously these are not official SM drawings, but maybe SM could use some ideas from these renderings, as I do like a few of them.

TopEV Scout.PNG
Likes:
- Front headlight?
- True front side-marker light
Dislikes:
- Rear bottom quarter panel does not have the correct angle
- Not tall enough (more ground clearance)
- Overall just looks too much like a modern jeep grand cherokee wannabe

Car and Driver Scout.PNG
Likes:
- Ground Clearance
- Tail Light
- Rear angles (quarter panel and roof)
Dislikes:
- Headlights
- Receded door handles
- No white top

Motor 1 Scout.PNG
Likes: (I think this one is the best by far)
- Rear angles (quarter panel and roof)
- Rallye stripe
- White roof
- Big skid plate
- Big tires (although those look like 33s, I think 35s should be an option)
- Fenders are perfect size
- Genuinely looks like a scout
Dislikes:
- Grill/headlights are too modern
- Receded door handles

Again, these are not SM renders, just renders from some publications based on the side-profile released by SM. I just wanted to post these and see what people like and dislike about them! I look at the blue one every day with fingers crossed:)
 
I like the first one. To me, it looks like a perfect mix of modern and boxy (which is what everyone seems to want these days), and retro and classic. To be fair, Scouts have always been boxy, so that point might actually go to the retro side of things too.

I just hope it does not turn into a Bronco Sport, Grand Cherokee, cherokee, blazer etc. with that small size and ground clearance, although I agree I like the boxiness of that one. I like the large size of the other two, making it compete more with the likes of a Hummer EV, Bronco Sasquatch, Wrangler Rubicon etc.
