The Tamiya Lotus Europa SP (M-06) recreates the celebrated Lotus Europa Special, a classic mid‑engine sports car known for its lightweight FRP construction and agile handling. This 1/10 scale R/C model assembly kit features a durable polycarbonate body that faithfully captures the Europa’s lines and signature details, including the rear wing seen on the Special variant. Dedicated markings and window masks support a clean, authentic finish.

About The M-06 Chassis

The rear-wheel drive M-06 chassis places the motor at the rear and mounts the battery longitudinally, with R/C gear arranged on either side to promote a low centre of gravity and balanced weight distribution. Suspension is 4-wheel double wishbone, and grey wheels are fitted with 60D radial tyres at the front and 60D super grip tyres at the rear. A 3-piece steering linkage delivers crisp, responsive handling.

This R/C kit recreates the classic Lotus Europa Special. The polycarbonate body is paired with the RWD M-06 chassis. The Lotus Europa debuted in 1966, showcasing what was then a revolutionary midship engine layout, with a lightweight FRP body. In 1972 perhaps the finest model – Lotus Europa Special - in the series was released with 1.6-litre inline-4 engine (big valve twin-cam engine) capable of 126hp which was the largest maximum output among the Lotus Europa series. The Tamiya R/C kit faithfully captures this classic car down to the rear wing as seen in the SPECIAL variant of the Europa.

M-06 Chassis
The M-06 chassis features a rear-mounted motor, rear-drive setup and has a longitudinally-mounted battery pack, with R/C equipment positioned on either side for optimum balance and a low centre of gravity. 4-wheel double wishbone suspension uses grey coloured wheels, equipped with 60D radial tyres at the front and 60D super grip tyres at the rear. In addition, a 3-piece steering linkage offers nimble handling response.
