Compact Tamiya Honda e model on the VZ platform

This Tamiya Honda e Mini 4WD model captures the compact electric styling and delivers a small but capable platform for both display and club racing. Built on the VZ chassis, it balances lightweight design with practical reinforcement for everyday track use.

Exterior styling and decal options

The body shell is molded in Yellow ABS to reflect the car's bold look. The kit supplies sticker sheets so you can personalise the finish and pin on optional numbers for a race-ready livery. Dish-type wheels with low-profile tyres give a streamlined silhouette that suits high-speed straights.

VZ chassis features and durability

The VZ chassis is engineered to be compact and light while including strengthened areas such as the bumper and rear stay base to resist impacts. Black ABS A parts form a sturdy foundation that helps keep the car stable when cornering at speed.

Tuning and upgrade options for racers

Owners can upgrade motors, tyres, gears and dampers to tune for different track layouts. The kit includes a Type 130 motor mounted at the rear with a 3.5:1 gear ratio, and low-friction POM 620 plastic bearings to reduce drivetrain loss and improve lap times.

Assembly, batteries and compatibility

This snap-fit assembly requires two AA batteries (not included) and offers a clear build process suitable for newcomers and experienced tuners alike. The layout supports common Mini 4WD parts for straightforward upgrades and maintenance.

The Tamiya Honda e Mini 4WD is a good pick for builders wanting a compact, tuneable racer that also looks the part. The VZ chassis offers a reliable starting point for modest to advanced customisation.

Expect a few hours for a careful build, less if you are experienced. The snap-fit parts and clear instructions make the kit straightforward to assemble.
Many racers swap the included Type 130 for higher rpm or torque variants depending on the track. Choose upgrades that match your gearing and tyre setup to avoid overheating.
Tamiya supplies spare parts for common wear areas. Check parts lists from the manufacturer for A parts and body sections compatible with the VZ chassis.
Low-profile, grippy tyres are a solid choice for many circuits. Experiment with softer compounds for better cornering or harder compounds for long straights.
