Authentic Fifth Generation Golf GTI in 1/10 Scale

The Tamiya 46603 - RC RTR Volkswagen Golf GTI TT-01ES faithfully represents the styling of the fifth generation GTI with factory-finished paint and detailed trim. This Expert Built Sport release delivers ready-to-run convenience alongside clear avenues for modification.

Stable TT-01ES Chassis and Shaft Drive

The TT-01ES chassis is a tried-and-tested TT-01 Type-E derivative prized for its robustness and compatibility with Tamiya upgrade parts. It features a shaft-driven 4WD layout and includes a Tamiya TEU-104BK electronic speed control and a 540 motor for reliable performance from first run.

Scale-Correct Body and Running Gear

The model's painted and trimmed body includes mirrors and a rear wing for scale authenticity. It runs on treaded tyres on 10-spoke grey wheels, while an independent double wishbone suspension helps maintain predictable handling across smooth surfaces.

Perfect For Collectors and Modders

This Tamiya Volkswagen Golf GTI appeals to collectors seeking a realistic display piece and to hobbyists planning modest upgrades to handling or power. The TT-01ES layout keeps routine maintenance straightforward.

Minimal assembly is required, such as installing batteries and attaching the body posts; the major components are factory fitted for immediate use.
Basic maintenance includes checking gear mesh, cleaning debris from the drivetrain, and inspecting suspension and wheel nuts to keep the car running reliably.
