Track-focused Formula E GEN2 Replica by Tamiya 58681

The Tamiya 58681 brings the look and engineering of modern electric single-seaters to the hobby bench. This 1/10 scale replica channels the Formula E GEN2 era with a painted polycarbonate shell and official championship livery for a realistic track presence. The model echoes the series emphasis on urban racing and electric power with accurate styling and durable materials.

Futuristic Styling and Real-World Details

The Tamiya 58681 mirrors key Formula E design cues with a low profile and cowl-covered wheel openings formed from tough polycarbonate. It includes the cockpit protective Halo, a clear rearview mirror detail, and a pronounced rear diffuser that doubles as impact protection. The black, silver and light blue championship scheme gives the car strong visual contrast on any circuit.

TC-01 Chassis Engineering for Tunable Performance

Under its bodywork the TC-01 chassis delivers a shaft-driven 4WD layout tuned for stability. The inboard suspension and monocoque-style frame provide rigidity while the centrally mounted motor and propeller shaft route power smoothly to all four wheels. Adjustable camber, caster and toe are available through the pushrod and rocker arm system so hobbyists can dial in handling for different track conditions.

The Tamiya 58681 is a rewarding build for those who value accurate electric race styling and a chassis that invites setup work. Collectors and track-focused drivers alike will find the model both a faithful replica and a tunable platform.

Inboard suspension reduces unsprung weight and allows more compact packaging, improving responsiveness in corners when setup correctly.
A 2S or 3S LiPo-compatible brushless motor and a compact esc that fits the TC-01 layout are common choices; choose a servo with good torque for precise steering.
Yes, the kit includes official stickers but the polycarbonate shell can be repainted or masked for custom liveries once trimmed and prepped.
Inspect drivetrain collars, check suspension linkages for play, and maintain CVA oil dampers to retain consistent handling lap after lap.
