Originally launched in 1988, the Avante earned a place in club pits for its forward-thinking layout and race presence. Tamiya revisits that heritage with the Avante Mk.II mounted on the DF-03 chassis, marrying vintage silhouette with current component packaging for serious off-road use.
The Avante Mk.II wears a lightweight polycarbonate body that keeps weight low and airflow tidy. High-density spike tires deliver strong bite on dirt and gravel, while the DF-03 platform supplies a dependable foundation for both spirited laps and weekend trail sessions.
The DF-03 chassis includes compact front and rear gearboxes with sealed ball differentials to limit contamination. A full set of ball bearings reduces drivetrain friction, and the four-wheel independent double wishbone suspension with extended control arms improves stability over rutted terrain.
The kit is supplied with a Type 540 motor that provides solid low-end torque for off-road running. An electronic speed controller is required but sold separately, allowing you to pick an ESC that matches your battery and driving style.
The Tamiya Avante Mk.II DF-03 fits collectors and drivers who value a balance of retro character and modern durability. Its robust chassis and tunable suspension make it a solid choice for varied off-road running.
