The Tamiya 58650 Volkswagen Beetle Rally recreates the beloved Beetle as a compact rally machine in 1/10 scale. The full-size Beetle made a name for itself on historical rally routes thanks to its sturdy design, and this model echoes that legacy with a tidy build and reliable parts.
The MF-01X chassis uses a shaft-driven 4WD arrangement that suits both tarmac and packed dirt tracks. It provides a stable platform with predictable steering response, ideal for hobbyists refining their setup. The chassis design keeps access to gearboxes and suspension components simple.
The model faithfully captures the Beetle's rounded profile and rally livery style. Constructed from polycarbonate, the body is both lightweight and impact resistant, and it takes paint and decals well for personalisation.
Start with the factory suspension settings and tweak damping or ride height as you learn how the car reacts. The MF-01X accepts commonly available upgrades, allowing owners to prioritise handling or durability as needed.
Combining authentic Beetle styling with the adaptable MF-01X chassis, the Tamiya 58650 Volkswagen Beetle Rally suits enthusiasts who enjoy building and tuning period models.
