Tamiya 94653 Savanna Leo Silver - Display and Tuning Ready

The Tamiya 94653 Savanna Leo Silver is a limited edition Mini 4WD that presents a silver-plated body combined with the modular MS chassis. This variant builds on the original Savanna Leo, offering a clean display aesthetic while keeping the chassis strength needed for on-track stability. The MS chassis design makes it straightforward for modders to try different setups while maintaining a reliable base.

Styling and Race Components

The Savanna Leo Silver measures 152mm in length and 92mm in width, retaining the classic bodylines of the original model. Fitted with large dish wheels and 16mm rollers, it is set up for stable high-speed runs. The robust N-02 nose unit and mid-mounted motor layout support balanced handling. A Type 170 motor comes with the kit and the drive train uses a 4:1 gear ratio for dependable power transfer.

Build Notes and Compatibility

This kit is designed for simple assembly without glue. It runs on two R6/AA/UM3 batteries, which are not included. The MS chassis uses a three-piece detachable format that simplifies construction and opens options for upgrades. While the model looks great on a shelf, it also provides a sound platform for basic performance tuning and parts swaps.
