Classic mini styling brought to the model garage

Tamiya reputes quality in the RC scene and the Tamiya 58427 - 1/10 RC Fiat 500 - M03M captures the compact charm of the original Fiat 500 in precise 1/10 scale. This kit blends faithful exterior detail with a chassis layout that invites personal upgrades and hands-on assembly.

From the road to the hobby bench

The Fiat 500's original small-car character made it an icon, and Tamiya has recreated that appeal for model fans. This RC version keeps the shape and proportions that enthusiasts recognise while offering a sturdy base for running and display.

Chassis and front-drive performance

Beneath the clear polycarbonate body sits the M-03M chassis, paired with a front-mounted Type 540 motor driving a 2WD front-wheel system for predictable handling. The kit includes tread-pattern rubber tyres with inner sponge to help maintain traction on common surfaces.

Tuning, parts and setup options

Builders can choose from many Grade-Up parts to refine speed, steering response, or durability. The independent double-wishbone suspension with friction dampers offers a straightforward platform for setup changes, making it approachable for newcomers and rewarding for experienced tuners.

The Tamiya 58427 Fiat 500 RC Kit is a compact, tunable model that suits collectors and casual drivers who value accurate styling and the ability to personalise performance.

Assembly follows clear instructions and is a manageable project for first-timers who take their time; basic modelling skills and patience are all you need to complete the kit.
A simple 2-channel radio, a compatible 6-cell NiMH pack or an equivalent LiPo with a suitable connector, and a charger are commonly used to complete the build.
The treaded rubber tyres with sponge inserts perform well on smooth tarmac, car parks and indoor floors; light gravel or hard-packed dirt is acceptable but rough terrain will limit grip.
Yes, the M-03M accepts a range of Grade-Up parts for improved gearing, steering, and durability while retaining the original driving feel.
