Rugged Trail Ready Tamiya 58457 Unimog 406

If you enjoy versatile off-road models, the Tamiya 58457 RC Mercedes-Benz Unimog 406 Series U900 built on the CC-01 chassis delivers a faithful scale recreation. The Unimog's distinctive curved bonnet and round headlamps echo the real vehicle's long legacy of utility and durability since the 1960s.

Robust CC-01 Chassis for Trails

The CC-01 platform is known for simplicity and resilience on uneven ground. This kit uses a front-mounted motor with shaft-driven full-time 4WD to keep power to all wheels. Front double wishbones and a 4-link rigid rear axle with CVA oil dampers help the model stay planted, and the rear differential can be set to a locked position during assembly to boost traction on rough paths.

Scale-Accurate Bodywork and Details

The kit includes a durable polycarbonate shell and metal-plated trim that reproduce the Unimog front grille. LED units can be fitted to recreate realistic lighting, while the ladder frame bathtub-type chassis and longitudinal motor placement keep the mechanical layout true to the original design.

The Tamiya 58457 Unimog 406 is a dependable platform for hobbyists wanting a workhorse-style trail truck. Its rugged layout and scope for simple upgrades suit both first-time kit builders and experienced pilots tackling uneven terrain.
