Tamiya 58158 - 1/10 RC Fiat Abarth 1000 TCR M02 Chassis Kit - Classic Touring Replica  [58158]

Classic Touring Car Heritage Brought to 1/10 Scale

The Fiat Abarth 1000 TCR is a celebrated name from European touring car history, refined by Carlo Abarth from the Fiat 600 platform. With a compact 948cc powerplant in period tune, the original packed surprising performance into a small package. Tamiya recreates that heritage in this 1/10 scale model built on the M02 chassis.

M02 Chassis and Rear-Wheel Dynamics

The M02 chassis provides a true rear-wheel-drive layout, matching the handling behaviour enthusiasts expect from this type of racer. The kit includes gear differentials and four-wheel independent double wishbone suspension for predictable cornering. The ABS monocoque structure keeps the layout rigid while keeping weight under control.

Accurate Bodywork and Styling Cues

Tamiya models the Abarth body from lexan with styrene trim to capture the car's compact silhouette and aggressive stance. The painted bodylines and added details reflect the scale proportions and help with on-track stability by managing airflow.

Who Will Enjoy This Kit

This model suits builders and drivers who like historical race cars and want to learn rear-drive control. Its steering response and chassis feedback make it useful for practising driving technique as well as displaying in a collection.

The Tamiya Fiat Abarth 1000 TCR is a compact, detailed kit that appeals to drivers wanting authentic rear-drive behaviour and collectors who appreciate vintage touring car replicas.
