Our Scout support teams have set up a central location for all questions regarding the company, products, reservations and more it can be found here:
The Scout support link above will always have the latest official answers.
We will do our best to maintain a "greatest hits" FAQ in the Scout Community to help answer some of the most frequent questions here in the forums.
Q: Where can I find more information about the Scout Traveller?
A: https://www.scoutmotors.com/traveler
Q: How can I place a reservation?
A: https://www.scoutmotors.com and click on "RESERVATION" in the upper right-hand corner.
Q: Why are Scout vehicles fully electric?
A: New Scout vehicles are designed to be equipped with electric powertrains that push capability and performance into the future while aiming to reduce environmental impact. These powertrains would enhance off-road capabilities with instant torque and precise control, delivering better performance than traditional gas vehicles.
With an electric powertrain, we intend to deliver exceptional off-road capability, massive torque for towing and working, and top-tier ride quality. Plus, it enables useful features like powering accessories off-site -- whether for tailgating, camping, or working remotely -- or even powering your home during a power outage. We’ve perfectly blended our rugged heritage with cutting-edge technology to create a Scout vehicle ready for today’s adventures and tomorrow’s challenges.
Q: Will a gas-burning or hybrid version be available in the future?
A: Scout Motors is focus on electric vehicles because we believe it's the best way to deliver peak performance, capability, and sustainability. Electric powertrains offer instant torque, enhanced off-road capabilities, and integrated features like powering accessories or even homes — capabilities that gas-powered or hybrid vehicles can’t match.
We understand some drivers may have concerns about battery range, so in addition to our fully electric models, we expect offer options with a gas-powered range extender (REX) system to extend the vehicle's maximum range from a projected estimate of up to 350 miles (563 km) to more than 500 miles (804 km), based on manufacturers internal estimates. EPA estimates will be provided when available.
Q: Can I provide feedback or input on Scout vehicles?
A: Yes, right here in our Scout Community forums. Our teams regularly read the forums here and respond to many suggestions and questions.
Q: Where are you building the new Scout vehicles?
A: At a brand new Scout Production Center in Blythewood, South Carolina.
Q: How much will Scout vehicles cost?
A: Entry-model Scout vehicles are expected to be priced starting under $60,000. We'll be sharing more details about pricing as we get closer to production. Pricing is subject to change.
Q: What exterior dimensions will Scout vehicles have?
A:
Traveler SUV Dimensions*
Length With Spare Wheel Carrier: 207.9 in
Length Without Spare Wheel Carrier: 190.9 in
Width Without Mirrors: 79.9 in
Width With Mirrors: 91.6 in
Max Height: 76.3 in
Wheelbase: 120.4 in
Max Ground Clearance: 12+ in
Offered Tire Size: 35 in
Terra Pickup Dimensions*
Length: 229.2 in
Width Without Mirrors 79.9 in
Width With Mirrors 91.6 in
Max Height: 77.7 in
Wheelbase: 148.6 in
Max Ground Clearance: 12+ in
Bed Length: 66 in (5.5 ft)
Cab to Bumper: 71.7 in
Offered Tire Size: 35 in
*Dimensions are approximate and subject to change. They may not accurately represent production vehicle sizes or all available trims and offerings.
Q: What level of off-road capability will Scout vehicles have?
A: Scout vehicles are designed to be highly capable off-road, featuring high ground clearance and excellent approach, departure, and breakover angles. They are projected to come standard with dual motors for four-wheel drive, a solid rear axle, a locking rear differential, and off-road drive modes. Plus, the bumpers and rockers are separated from the body and are designed to act as protective elements.
For even more capability, customers will be able to select an optional off-road package, which includes off-road tires, special shock tuning, a locking front differential, and more. Scout vehicles will also offer a front sway bar disconnect, designed to improve wheel articulation, comfort, and traction on uneven terrain – offering the best of both on-road and off-road handling. Final details will be confirmed as we approach production.
Q: What manufacturer estimated range will Scout vehicles offer?
A: Scout Motors estimates the Traveler™ SUV and Terra™ pickup will have up to 350 miles (563 km) of all-electric range or more than 500 miles (804 km) for gas-powered range extender-equipped versions. These are manufacturer's projected estimate based on internal targets. EPA estimates will be provided when available.
Q: How will the Harvester™ range extender work?
A: To account for different work needs, we're planning to offer the choice of two energy systems: an all-electric system, or a gas-powered range extender called Harvester™. The Harvester™ Range Extender is a generator packaged in the vehicle platform that will recharge the vehicle's high voltage battery. It unlocks the ability to refuel anywhere and extend the expected range to over 500 miles (based on manufacturer estimates, EPA estimates will be provided when available.).
Q: What is the projected ground clearance for Scout vehicles?
A: Scout vehicles are projected to offer over 1 foot of ground clearance. These are preliminary specifications and may change. They may not accurately represent production vehicle sizes or all available trims and offerings. Final details will be confirmed as we approach production.
Q: What water fording capability will Scout vehicles offer?
A: Both Scout models are engineered for high water fording performance, with a projected ability to wade through and traverse water depths of nearly 3 feet.
Q: Will Scout vehicles offer a front bench seat?
A: Yes. We plan for customers to choose between a multifunctional console or a front bench seat—both options will be available to order in the Traveler™ and Terra™ models.
