Features Overview

Classic Design, Modern Performance:
The Hornet EVO features a polycarbonate body with the same classic shape as the original Hornet, providing a touch of nostalgia for long-time fans.

Equipped with a 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension, the Hornet EVO offers superior handling and stability on rugged terrains. The rear gearbox is sealed and fitted with a differential gear borrowed from the advanced DT-02 chassis, providing smooth and reliable power transmission. These improvements make it a joy to drive, whether you're tearing up dirt tracks or navigating through tough obstacles.2

High-Quality Components for Improved Durability:
Tamiya has included full ball bearings in the Hornet EVO kit, which reduce friction and wear, resulting in better performance and longevity. The CVA oil dampers, both front and rear, further enhance its off-road capabilities by absorbing shocks and delivering a stable ride. With these premium components, the Hornet EVO is designed to handle intense action with ease and reliability.
