The Tamiya 57802 XB Alfa Romeo MiTo captures the styling and presence of the road car in a ready-to-run package. The compact MiTo body keeps the distinctive shield grille and separate light housings, formed in tough polycarbonate to resist dings and keep the scale look. Its lines reflect the sports compact character first seen when the MiTo arrived in 2008, named for Milan and Torino.
The M-05 platform underpins the model with a narrow semi-monocoque resin frame that is both light and rigid. This layout helps centralise mass and lower the centre of gravity, aiding stable, predictable cornering. The front-wheel-drive layout teamed with a 3-bevel differential and a three-piece steering linkage gives precise turn-in and confidence on asphalt and smooth surfaces.
This kit includes a Type 540 motor and an electronic speed controller ready for forward and reverse operation. Four independent double wishbone suspension arms and simple friction dampers smooth out bumps, while the 60D radial tyres mounted on 11-spoke wheels deliver consistent grip for scale-style driving.
For hobbyists who enjoy accurate scale looks and controllable handling, the Tamiya 57802 XB Alfa Romeo MiTo is a balanced choice for casual track days and street-style events.
