Honda CR-Z modelled with Tamiya precision

The Tamiya 58490 Honda CR-Z recreates the compact hybrid sports coupe in 1/10 scale, keeping the sleek profile and signature details of the road car. The polycarbonate shell reproduces features like the fin antenna and flowing lines, reflecting the original CR-Zs balance of sporty looks and efficiency.

FF-03 chassis tuned for realistic front-wheel drive feel

The FF-03 chassis gives this model true front-wheel drive characteristics via a longitudinal battery layout and a compact front gearbox with ball differential. That arrangement helps produce credible steering response and traction whether you are cornering or opening up on a straight.

Sophisticated suspension for balanced control

Suspension duties are handled by a 4-wheel double wishbone layout with CVA oil dampers, allowing precise setup changes for different surfaces. The inboard front suspension with short reversible arms and the rocker bridge with stabilizer holders let you dial in handling for practice sessions or competitive runs.

This Tamiya Honda CR-Z on the FF-03 platform is a solid choice for modelers who value authentic handling and a faithful body shell, suitable for both display and competitive club racing.

Use a compact ESC and a standard size servo to fit the front-mounted gearbox and steering bays. A Type 540 motor is included, but pairing it with a matched ESC helps tune acceleration and braking behavior.
The kit is aimed at hobbyists with some assembly experience. New builders should expect tasks like trimming the polycarbonate body, routing wiring, and setting up the suspension; community build guides can help.
Yes. The adjustable wheelbase, reversible front arms, and CVA dampers provide multiple tuning points to change understeer, roll stiffness, and ride height for different track conditions.
Regular checks of the ball differential, gearbox gears, and CVA damper seals will keep performance consistent. Clean and lightly grease moving parts after wet or dusty runs.
