50 Limited Edition Indian Scout FTR750 motorcycles available for flat track fans

Fifty fast-acting buyers will get a limited-edition Indian Scout FTR750 motorcycle and a once-in-a-lifetime flat-track racing experience. After more than 60 years absence from racing, this year’s Indian Motorcycle factory team is dominating American Flat Track racing. To commemorate this year’s success, Indian is offering 50 track-only Scout FTR750s with a list of perks, options, and experiences.

This limited edition bike isn’t a first for Indian. In 2016, Indian and Jack Daniels offered 150 2016 Jack Daniel’s Limited Edition Indian Chief Vintage and Springfield bikes that sold out in eight hours. It only took 10 minutes in March to sell 100 2017 Jack Daniel’s Limited Edition Indian Chieftains. Following on the March sale, Indian sold 350 2017 Limited Edition Indian Chieftain Elite motorcycles in April.

In February, Indian announced the availability of off-road or track-only Indian Scout FTR750s for teams and racers for $50,000. The fifty Limited Edition Scout FTR750s available for sale to the public on a first-come, first-served basis cost $50,000. Limited edition series buyers can choose one of a variety of finishes, their own number (unless it’s been taken) from 1 to 50, and, if they wish, an optional front brake. Flat-track racing bikes do not have front brakes, so why not keep it real?

Limited Edition Scout FTR750 buyers will also receive round-trip flights and accommodations for two plus VIP tickets to a 2018 season American Flat Track Race. While at the race buyers will have VIP seating with dinner and drinks and access to the Indian Motorcycle Racing pits.

To top it off, limited edition buyers will be able to choose a one-to-one flat track riding lesson with one of this year’s three winning Indian Motorcycle Factory Team. Between them, Jared Mees, Bryan Smith, and Brad Baker have won eight of the first nine American Flat Track races this season and have taken 22 of the 27 podium spots in those races. Podium spots refer to first, second, or third place finishes. So that means you’ll have the personal attention of a current top flat track racer to help you hone your skills on a Scout FTR750.

Only 50 bikes will be manufactured for public sale this year, a year of great significance in Indian Motorcycle history due to the factory team’s strong inaugural performance in its re-entry to professional flat track racing.

If you’re tempted by this limited edition or just want more information, we recommend that you contact Indian promptly.

Ram is revving up excitement with the return of an old favorite—the 2026 Ram 1500 Express. Reintroduced as a more affordable option in the full-size truck lineup, the Express trim brings back a combination of rugged style, respectable performance, and most importantly, a price tag that won’t send buyers running for the hills.

Starting at $41,105 for the base Quad Cab configuration (and just under $45,000 for the Crew Cab), the new Express offers a budget-friendly alternative in a market where full-size trucks can easily cross the $60,000 mark.

Jeep Compass EV breaks cover—but will it come to the U.S.?
jeep compass ev us newjeepcompassfirsteditionhawaii  4

Jeep just pulled the wraps off the all-new Compass EV, and while it’s an exciting leap into the electric future, there's a catch—it might not make it to the U.S. anytime soon.
This is a brand new electric version of the Jeep Compass, and being built on Stellantis' STLA platform—the same architecture underpinning models like the Peugeot E-3008 and E-5008—it looks much slicker and packs a lot more inside than previous versions of the Compass.
Let’s start with what’s cool: the new Compass EV is packing up to 404 miles of range on a single charge, a 74 kWh battery, and fast-charging that gets you from 20% to 80% in about 30 minutes. Not bad for a compact SUV with Jeep's badge on the nose.
There are two versions: a front-wheel-drive model with 213 horsepower and a beefier all-wheel-drive version with 375 horsepower. That AWD setup isn’t just for looks—it can handle 20% inclines even without front traction, and comes with extra ground clearance and better off-road angles. In short, it’s still a Jeep.
The design's been refreshed too, and inside you’ll find the kind of tech and comfort you’d expect in a modern EV—sleek, smart, and ready for both city streets and dirt trails.
But here’s the thing: even though production starts soon in Italy, Jeep hasn’t said whether the Compass EV is coming to America. And the signs aren’t promising.
Plans to build it in Canada were recently put on hold, with production now delayed until at least early 2026. Some of that might have to do with possible U.S. tariffs on Canadian and Mexican vehicles—adding a layer of uncertainty to the whole rollout.
According to Kelley Blue Book, a Stellantis spokesperson confirmed that the company has “temporarily paused work on the next-generation Jeep Compass, including activities at” the Canadian plant that was originally meant to build the model. They added that Stellantis is “reassessing its product strategy in North America” to better match customer needs and demand for different powertrain options.
So while Europe and other markets are gearing up to get the Compass EV soon, American drivers might be left waiting—or miss out entirely.
That’s a shame, because on paper, this electric Jeep hits a lot of sweet spots. Let’s just hope it finds a way over here.
