Scion is Back, But It's Not Like We Remember
Toyota has brought back the Scion name — at least in spirit — with a new off-road concept called the Scion 01.

The project reimagines a side-by-side all-terrain vehicle through the lens of Toyota engineering, with what the brand considers the imagination of the the Scion brand.
Developed by Toyota’s North American Vehicle Performance Development team, the Scion 01 Concept features a turbocharged hybrid powertrain producing more than 300 horsepower.
The setup is derived from Toyota’s truck lineup and includes a “Silent Mode” that allows the vehicle to run on electric power alone, making it possible to navigate trails quietly and without emissions.
The Scion 01 was designed for a range of off-road uses, from high-speed desert running to technical rock crawling.
Toyota says the suspension offers strong articulation and balanced proportions for tackling tight trails, while maintaining the strength and reliability expected from the brand’s off-road platforms.
The concept also incorporates an FIA-compliant safety cage compatible with SCORE and FIA racing standards — a first for a Toyota concept of this type.
Many of the driveline, suspension, and brake components come directly from Toyota’s existing lineup.
Styling was handled by CALTY Design Research in California, with the goal to give the Scion 01 a purposeful look.
The concept will be on display at the 2025 SEMA Show, where Toyota will showcase it as part of its broader effort to explore how hybrid technology can enhance off-road performance while supporting more sustainable mobility.
