The Tamiya Volkswagen Beetle is a 1:10 scale R/C assembly kit. The polycarbonate body captures the classic design of the iconic car, which was originally designed by Ferdinand Porsche and saw military service during World War II. The 2013 model is built on the popular rear-wheel-drive M-06 chassis, which, thanks to its rear motor, offers realistic handling characteristics and a high top speed. Numerous chrome-plated components enhance the authentic appearance of the beetle. The adjustable wheelbase allows for the use of various M-chassis bodies. This kit is a prototypical replica of the original car.
