Tamiya 58528 XV-01 Subaru Impreza WRX STI Team Arai

Product detailed description

1/10 scale RC rally car kit based on the Tamiya XV-01 chassis with full-time belt-driven 4WD. Designed specifically for driving on both asphalt and gravel, the front-mounted motor layout provides realistic handling characteristics similar to full-size rally cars. The drivetrain, drive belt and electronics compartment are protected by covers against dust, stones and debris. A bottom service hatch allows quick battery replacement without removing the body shell.

The model features independent double wishbone suspension on all four wheels, CVA oil-filled shock absorbers, front and rear gear differentials, and full ball bearings. Suspension geometry and ground clearance are adjustable. The kit includes Tamiya Rally Block tires with foam inserts, wheels, a clear polycarbonate body with decals, and a Type 540 brushed motor.

The XV-01 chassis is highly popular among RC rally drivers thanks to its durable construction, excellent drivetrain protection and wide range of tuning options. It is suitable for both recreational driving and competitive racing.
