First Look! Scout Traveler in New Color "Pacific Mist Blue" (at NYC Debut)

[Goose]

This disappoints me a little. I'm coming from a Jeep and was hoping it was larger.

I get it. Maybe these dimensions aren't set in stone? I feel like they should push the size to more 4Runner/Land Cruiser, that seems to be the real sweet spot.

This is what I can't determine by pics and it's nice that you said that.
Basing it on the Chevy SUV's...would you say it's Equinox, Traverse, or Tahoe sized?

Traverse sized. It’s basically the same size as the Rivian R1. Definitely a lot smaller than a Tahoe. The cargo space in the back was nonetheless still spacious. About 4 ft by 4 ft. Put the seats down and you get about 6 ft deep.

One man’s observations and things discussed with Scout personnel after my trip Downtown:

1. take heart for those hoping for a few bright colors. One person all but told me to expect a yellow shade which has me grinning from ear to ear.
2. Rallye will come in more than that ghost decal. Expect white, expect black. They want this thing to be as customizable as possible.
3. not new but late 2027 production which means most likely mid 2028 delivery.
4. they will begin taking info on your build well before they start production. I was told late 2026/early 2027. When you get yours will depend on how many others are similar from a foundation standpoint (harvester, traveller, etc.)
5. Tire carrier will only come with off road package and the BIG tires.
6. bench seat will have ability to fold down middle and give you storage, etc. similar but not the same as the standard two seater with console.
7. Engine for erev location will be about 2 ft in from bumper underneath in the back well protected with skid plates etc.
8. They will have multiple interiors to choose from. Again really customizable.
9. third row coming “a few years” after initial release.
10. workshop will be very close to NYC. Reaervation holders will b e invited to test drive before they start taking info on our builds.

Thanks for this. Great info.

It's basically the same size as a Hummer EV. 6ish inches less wide, but almost exactly the same length and height. Wheelbase is also about 6ish shorter, despite being just as long as the Hummer.

not even close, it’s the size of a 4 door bronco. The length you’re referencing is with the spare tire on the back. The Traveler is 2” shorter than a Bronco from bumper to bumper.

Does anyone know if this is a for sure color (Pacific Mist Blue)? I was planning on going with the Burnt Orange or red if offered, but I really like this light silver/blue.

To me it gives it a real upscale look. Personally I’m not one for stripes. I don’t see it on their website unless I’m blind

Read my post above yours, it's nowhere near the size of a Tahoe. Pretty much the same size as a Bronco.

This is good to hear. I traded my 2022 Bronco OBX 2 dr SAS for a 2024 Tesla Model 3 because of the amount of miles I drive daily. I terribly miss the Bronco but EV has worked out amazing for me. I’m a very petite gal so the size of the Traveler was definitely a concern for me. I’m a day 1 reservation holder and plan on ordering as soon as that can happen.

So length wise, the traveler is going to be very close to the 4-Door Bronco. Body width I was incorrect about, the Bronco fender flares make it a little difficult to compare directly to other models. The Traveler will be wider than the Bronco since the body stretches out to the end of the fender flares.
