Hurricane Sonic Premium - Track Proven Mini 4WD
The Tamiya Hurricane Sonic Premium is a standout model in the Mini 4WD lineup, known for a balance of style and on-track capability. Inspired by the Mini 4WD anime, the design prioritizes a streamlined silhouette and agile handling. Built on the AR Chassis, this kit focuses on aerodynamic layout while leaving room for performance tweaks and personalization.
Streamlined Race Body
The Hurricane Sonic Premium sports a slim, race-inspired body that channels airflow efficiently. The ABS plastic shell is supplied in white, giving modders a neutral base for paint and custom graphics. Updated metallic stickers are included to boost the visual impact on race day.
AR Chassis Design
The AR Chassis emphasizes aero efficiency and structural durability. Its layout makes routine maintenance straightforward and supports a wide range of upgrades. Molded in metallic gray ABS, the chassis includes red POM A-parts such as the battery holder for a durable, tidy build.
Tuning and Upgrade Options
This kit offers clear upgrade paths for speed and handling. Builders can try different standard 130 motors, experiment with gear choices and fit higher-grip tyres to suit track surfaces. The kit ships with a 3.5:1 gear ratio and low-profile black tyres on yellow 5-spoke wheels, which deliver a good mix of traction and acceleration.
Assembly and Track Compatibility
Snap-fit construction keeps assembly accessible to new builders while still satisfying experienced hobbyists. Basic tools like a small Phillips screwdriver and side cutters are all that is required. The model is compatible with standard Tamiya Mini 4WD tracks for racing or practice sessions.
