Who says the scoop faces forwards?

Probably the most popular scoop ever.

Espadas have nice scoops NACA ducts. They aren’t actually for the engine but for the passenger compartment.

AAR ‘Cuda has something between a NACA duct and a scoop.

Some S130 and Z31 Nissans have asymmetric scoops.

I’m not entirely sure if I even like the last one myself but it’s so weird idea that I’ll still propose it. Autech Zagato Stelvio and Gavia have NACA ducts on their wheels. The rest of them doesn’t look much more sensible.

Kia Carnival. We had it in the US as the Sedona, but it never had the turbodiesel here, so we never got the hood scoop.

Probably cheating, as I don’t think this was a factory (or even TRD) offering, and more “painted external air intake pipe to engine lid” than hood scoop, but I always loved these.

It seems so, but for an asymmetrical scoop it’s are quite symmetric. Weird that they didn’t make it more asymmetric or completely symmetric.
