In all seriousness though, and I don't feel like searching for the exact dev quote - no, companions will not have mounts. When using a mount, your companions temporarily 'disappear' and then 're-appear' behind you when you dismount. You will not hear any party banter while on a mount.
Pretty much why I plan to run around on foot first game run - the banter must not be missed!
Yeah, I hope we don't miss any banter if we use our mount and our companions are magically hidden away...
Would also love if we could use the mount to stock some of our equipment (saddle bags). I remember the devs being asked, and they said they hadn't thought about it but it was good idea (can't remember the link).
This should answer your question OP:
Then I will only use Mounts when I solo adventure. I will never use it when i'm with some companions.
Found this from the raptr Q/A: (quote)
Q: I was wondering, are we getting backpacks to increase our inventory once more? Are our mounts capable of preventing us from seeing the feared "Inventory Full" message?
A: Mounts don't currently increase carrying capacity. Good idea though (MD)
This should answer your question OP:
I remember asking Mark Darrah a similar question. From the demo videos. It appears that your companions disappear when you're traveling and then spring into existence when you get into a battle. Mark did say it was a camera issue or coding they are working on.
I am surprised that they can't have your companions ride their own horse or maybe allow a companion saddle up behind you. So there would be two people on a horse.
It would seem more authentic by having your companion riding along side you.
Are the mounts killable? I'd rather not spend extra money for my preorder only to have my bog unicorn killed within tue 1st few hrs in game.
Well, you can't enter combat with them, so I doubt it.
