Description

The Tamiya Hornet EVO marks the 40th anniversary of the iconic off-road buggy with a fresh take that blends classic looks and modern performance. Retaining the unmistakable Hornet silhouette, this 1/10 scale R/C assembly kit arrives with thoughtful EVO upgrades to delight both first-time builders and long-time Tamiya fans. Part number HC-58742.

A tough 2WD bathtub chassis underpins the lightweight 0.7mm polycarbonate body, finished in the familiar Hornet colour scheme with updated stickers. Performance gains come courtesy of independent double wishbone suspension, a sealed rear gearbox with a DT-02 differential, full ball bearings and CVA oil dampers front and rear. A 540 brushed motor and ESC are included to get you on the trail with reliable, fuss-free power.
