Highline Scania R470 Recreated in Orange

Scale enthusiasts who admire authentic truck details will enjoy the Tamiya Scania R470 Highline for its accurate lines and mechanical fidelity. This Orange Edition delivers pre-coated ABS bodywork in a striking metallic orange for a full finished look.

A Classic Long Haul Profile

The Scania R470 is a long haul favourite, known for robustness and serviceability. Tamiya echoes that heritage in the model, preserving the characteristic silhouette and functional elements that define the R470.

Working Transmission and Hitch

The Tamiya Scania R470 Highline Orange Edition is a complete working kit featuring a 3-speed transmission and a hitch that works with Tamiya 1/14 trailers. The cab tilts away from the fenders as on the full-size truck for realistic access.

Durable Frame and Suspension Details

The chassis uses aluminium channels and resin cross members to create a strong ladder frame. Metal leaf springs plus coil dampers replicate suspension movement, and a range of optional parts allows builders to tweak performance and appearance.
