Hobbyists seeking a faithful miniature will appreciate the Tamiya Scania 770 S 8x4/4, rendered at 1/14 scale with attention to scale proportions and mechanical layout. The genuine Scania 770 S debuted in 2020 with a V8 turbo delivering 770 horsepower, and this kit captures its heavyweight stance in model form.
Tamiya's moulding reproduces the cab contours and small fittings such as the auxiliary machinery tower, fuel tanks and air tanks. The metal components within the chassis provide structural strength and mirror the original truck's double rear-axle drive and dual front-axle steering arrangement.
The model is fitted with metal leaf springs and a functional lift axle to simulate genuine suspension action. The assembly-type 3-speed transmission enables realistic gear selection when used with a separately sourced 4-channel transmitter.
The optional Multi-Function Control Unit MFC-03 adds lights, realistic engine sounds and vibration to elevate running realism. Detailed interior mouldings for the dash and seats enhance the cabin when painted and finished.
The kit includes a 1/14 scale driver figure plus cab decals and metal transfers for detailing. To complete the model you will need a 4-channel radio, two servos, an ESC, a 7.2V battery with compatible charger and suitable paints for finishing.
The Tamiya Scania 770 S 8x4/4 offers a precise assembly experience with detailed parts and robust metalwork, making it a fine choice for experienced model makers and truck collectors.
