Tamiya Toyota Hilux CC-01 truck kit

Tamiya have introduced their new Toyota Hilux CC-01 truck kit. The truck depicts the 8th generation of the Hilux vehicle, released back in 2015, specifically a special full-size version of the Extra Cab which Toyota’s British division had made in the colours of Tamiya’s legendary Bruiser as a tribute to their model. It also appeared in some high-profile PR activities in Great Britain. The CC-01 chassis’ ground-hugging, long-stroke suspension system consists of front double wishbone and rear 4-link rigid setups and is equipped with four oil dampers. The highly reliable and efficient full-time 4WD system features a front-mounted motor, which transmits power to the front wheels via the gearbox and to the rear wheels via the propeller shaft with universal joints. Front and rear differentials enable smooth cornering. For even greater off-road performance on rough terrain, the rear differential may be locked during assembly. Realistic block-pattern tires are mounted on metal-plated wheels and the kit also includes the Tamiya TBLE-02S electronic speed control that is capable of running sensor brushless motors and brushed motors alike.
