The Tamiya 46609 RTR Mercedes-Benz 190E reproduces a historic touring car in accurate 1/10 scale. The road-going 190E made a name for itself with its 16-valve engine and Evolution II competition variants, and this model echoes that heritage for enthusiasts and collectors.
This model rides on the TT-01ES chassis, offering a straightforward platform that supports a wide array of Tamiya option upgrades. The enclosed 4WD shaft drive helps maintain stable power delivery and improves traction across different track surfaces.
The pre-painted black polycarbonate body is fitted with realistic mirrors and a rear wing to match the prototype. Treaded tyres and the 6-spoke grey wheels provide period-correct aesthetics and functional grip for street and track driving.
Supplied with a Tamiya TEU-104BK ESC with reverse and a 540 motor, the model offers dependable control and adequate speed for most hobby sessions. Friction shocks combined with independent double wishbone suspension deliver robust handling, while non-adjustable camber and caster keep the setup simple.
The Tamiya 46609 RTR Mercedes-Benz 190E makes a good choice for model drivers who want an authentic classic touring car that is easy to operate and maintain. It is equally at home on display or at club events.
