Dimensions Size [Updated]: Scout TRAVELER SUV vs. R1S, Hummer, Bronco, Jeep Wrangler, 4Runner, Kia EV9, Defender

[DaveM]

UPDATE 11/1/24

Scout Traveler SUV Dimensions Update Directly From Scout:​

​

We have updated the dimensions [graphic] of the concept vehicles on our website to be clearer. I would only add that while these concepts are 85-90% accurate, there could be minor changes with the production models (different side mirror designs, overall height that varies with wheel and suspension setup, etc.,etc.).​

​

Notice that the mirrors are now drawn to scale and stick out past the body. And the Traveler's length without spare tire carrier has been added.​

Scout Traveler SUV
- 207.9 inch length (with rear mounted spare tire / carrier)
- 190.9 inch length (without spare tire / carrier)
- 91.6 inch width (with mirrors)
- 79.9 inch width (without mirrors)
- 120.4 inch wheelbase
- 76.3 inch height
- 12+ inch max ground clearance

Rivian R1S
- 201 inch length
- 87.1 inch width (with mirrors)
- 81.8 inch width (without mirrors)

Thanks for the comparison, very helpful! Love that the Traveler SUV is big and not shy about it Hope it translates into roomy interior dimensions.

 

[DaveM]

Added the Land Rover Defender 130 (biggest model) also.

I guess my wife's car will have to park outside the garage if the Traveler is that wide.

Everyone seems freaked out by the 91.6" inch width figure released by Scout, but it may just be an error too.

If we are to assume that the dimensions image released by Scout yesterday is accurate and to scale, then the width must be wrong.

Someone else measured the height and width of the vehicle drawing precisely with calipers and found the width is 1.127 times the height. If the height measurement is correct at 76.3 the width is actually about 86.0 in (with mirrors because they do not project).

Based on the diagram, it appears that the Traveler wheelbase is 120.4 inches, not 102.4...

Oops, fixed. Thanks!

Smart! And hopefully true.

The Scout width seems to be measured at its widest point, which is the Track width, not the body width (if the drawing is correct).

I’m assuming the spare tire is Included in that 208” length?

 

[TheShark]

I was curious about the dimensions, thanks for posting them and the comparisons. She is a biggun. My 4 door Bronco barely fits in the garage and I don't see the Scout fitting being about 18" longer not to mention being much wider.

 

[JesseS]

My Ranger barely fits in the garage, it is 210.8 long and 85.8" wide w/mirrors, 73.3 without. If the Traveler comes out as 86" wide or close then I am good as the Ranger is 3" longer.

Given the complete lack of reliable information about the dimensions other than what seemed like an aspirational diagram, I decided to estimate it by using an object of known size and extrapolating from that to the track width (body width is a bit more). The tires on the show vehicle are BFGoodrich 35x12.5R20, which are 12.5" wide.

The outside tire to outside tire width is almost exactly 7 tires. If this estimate is correct, it means the track width is 87.5 inches. I think that's it's easily believable that the body width is 4.1 inches greater (2.05 inches on each side), given the fender flare.

I believe the width spec in the diagram on the Scout website is correct for the show vehicle. Whether that will also be true for the production vehicles remains to be seen.

I'm disappointed to see it so big. Not a desirable size for the true off roader I was hoping for. Would be be difficult navigating on the narrow switched back trails here in Colorado.
