Scale Classic: Tamiya 47370 Isuzu Mu Type X Mounted on CC-01

The Tamiya 47370 - 1/10 Isuzu Mu Type X CC-01 recreates a mid-90s SUV profile in scale, pairing a detailed injection-moulded body with the dependable CC-01 chassis. The full-size Mu Type X debuted in November 1995 and appeared under several nameplates internationally; this kit captures that era while keeping maintenance and part replacement straightforward.

Chassis Mechanics and Off-Road Ability

The CC-01 sports a full-time 4WD drivetrain with a longitudinal motor, transmitting power forward via a gearbox and rearwards with a prop shaft. Front and rear differentials are fitted for controlled handling, and the option to lock the rear differential during assembly gives extra traction when tackling rough ground. The front suspension utilises double wishbones with upper single links and lower H-shaped arms, while the rear is a rigid arrangement, all damped by four CVA oil dampers to manage bumps and ruts.

Constructing the Model and Driving Feel

Building the Tamiya 47370 is rewarding with well-engineered components and clear instructions, suitable for experienced modellers and competent newcomers. When complete the model offers a composed on-road ride and capable off-road performance, with authentic styling and an easy-to-service chassis.
