Swoop’s New Ride

Swoop is hitting the road in style with the first vehicle from the University of Utah’s Red Metal Motors initiative.
Red Metal Motors is a University-created program that celebrates school spirit, craftsmanship, and student impact—all while driving scholarship support for University of Utah students.
Each vehicle in the Red Metal Motors series is a custom-built, University-owned creation designed to appear at parades, community events, and special campus celebrations. These unique rides showcase the University’s pride and creativity while connecting students, alumni, and fans in a distinctive way.
When it’s time for a new model to take the spotlight, the previous vehicle will be auctioned to fund student scholarships and future Red Metal Motors projects—creating a lasting cycle of opportunity, engagement, and innovation.
Red Metal Motors isn’t a company—it’s a University of Utah scholarship initiative that turns custom vehicles into student opportunities.
