Scale accuracy with the Tamiya 58448 Corolla Axio apr GT

The Tamiya 58448 - RC Corolla Axio apr GT reproduces the GT300 styling on a TA05 Version II chassis, combining period race looks with a chassis designed for precise handling. It is faithful to the display models first seen in 2009.

Chassis balance and body detail

The polycarbonate body follows the car's low profile and includes separate side mirrors and a rear wing for scale authenticity. Beneath it, the TA05V.2 chassis utilises a 2-belt driven system to give smooth gearbox-free power distribution and consistent cornering behaviour.

Modifying and improving performance

Enthusiasts can fit option parts like center one-way units and improved belts to alter handling traits. The kit ships with medium narrow racing slicks on offset gun metal wheels, forming a good baseline for setup changes.

Who should pick this model

This kit is aimed at modellers who appreciate an accurate shell and a chassis that responds to tuning. It is suitable for display collectors as well as racers who enjoy refining suspension and drivetrain settings.

Yes, many Tamiya hop-up components are compatible, allowing you to change drivetrain parts, dampers or steering components to improve handling.
Verify belt tension and drivetrain alignment, confirm electronics fit and steering centring, and ensure body mounting is secure before taking it to the track.
It is designed for smooth surfaces and track use; off-road surfaces will stress the low-profile body and touring slicks, so it is not recommended for rough terrain.
