What is one feature you hope Scout will include that has not yet been shown?

  • 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.
Do we know if the back seats on the Traveler will fold down flat and how much room there will be from back of front seat to inside of the rear fold down tailgate? It's silly but I love having the option of sleeping comfortably in the back for those quick overnighters, or when weather doesn't cooperate (not a RTT person, prefer the Gazelle tent)... I was able to do it in my LJ and JKU. In 2021 I moved over to a Diesel Gladiator and looking back, I regret my decision, not having the option to sleep in the back. After 27 years of Jeep ownership, it's time for a change. My lifestyle has changed and I don't beat up on my vehicles on trails anymore, especially since the advent of the side by side. I want something capable and reliable, with decent power and fuel economy. and along comes the SCOUT.

So back to the original statement, the Traveler would be ideal for me if I was able to jump in the back to rest and grab a quick nap. Sharing the cargo dimensions with the seat folded (hopefully flat) would be really helpful if that dimension is figured out yet...

Not strange at all. It's what I hear.
Not disputing its what you are hearing.

More surprised that the EV range for the harvester is not a known thing, as its been said publicly a number of time.

I've never really camped in a vehicle thats not a minivan/suburban, but based on the size of the Traveler, I feel like its definitely a possibility.

The vehicle is about the same size (overall length) as a Toyota Highlander. And I'm having a hard time finding a specific measurement for that distance. I found one post for a 2017 model, and then saw some photos with drawn measurements... but I'm not sure on those measurements.


But I'm seeing distances between 66-78inches. So, it seems possible for an average size man to make it work, especially on the diagonal.
 
Keep basic convenience functions as a part of the vehicle. Remote start should heat (including window & mirror defrosting, heated seats & steering wheel) & cool based on outside temps and shouldn't be locked behind a monthly subscription fee (looking at you Kia). Paying for Satellite connectivity is fine, but don't make me pay to preheat my vehicle in the winter.

As an alternative to satellite, make the Scout's hotspot function work both ways. Have the satellite connection for those who need/want it, but allow the vehicle to connect to the internet via my phone's hotspot.
