Scale tribute to the Swift Super 1600 rally car

The Tamiya 58368 Suzuki Swift Super 1600 recreates the compact rally competitor that featured in the 2005 Junior World Rally Championship and achieved notable stage results. This kit gives RC enthusiasts a detailed on-road replica with rally provenance.

How the M03M chassis affects driving

The M03M chassis is built for predictable behaviour, using a 225mm wheelbase to stabilise handling. A front-mounted 540 type motor propels the front wheels, while the independent double-wishbone suspension and friction dampers keep the car composed through corners.

Construction highlights and components

The model comes with a molded polycarbonate body reflecting the Super 1600 profile, lightweight uprights and eight 1050 ball bearings to lower mechanical friction. Treaded rubber tyres with sponge inserts offer reliable grip, and the mid-ship battery position helps maintain consistent balance during lap work.
