Scale Reproduction of a Touring Classic

The Tamiya 58491 renders the Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.5-16 Evolution II as a faithful 1/10 scale kit, marrying period styling with practical build techniques. The model works well both as a display piece and a driveable on-road car when assembled with electronics.

TT01E Drive Train and Handling Characteristics

The TT01E chassis offers a solid entry point into 4WD touring car models, combining a shaft-driven drivetrain with consistent handling traits. Independent double wishbone suspension helps maintain tyre contact, and sealed front and rear differentials protect the internal gears for reliable operation.

Authentic Bodywork and Trim Details

Attention to scale is evident in the polycarbonate body contours and the separate ABS trim items for mirrors, grille and wing. A metal-plated emblem lends a realistic finish once the body is painted and trimmed to the owner's taste.

  • Chassis: TT01E

For modellers seeking a classic touring car with an upgrade path, the Tamiya 58491 offers authentic looks and a chassis that responds well to thoughtful modifications.

Tamiya enjoys broad aftermarket support so common spare parts and hop-ups for the TT01E and body items are widely available.
The kit is suitable for both display and driving; painting and trimming will produce a show-worthy model, while fitting electronics allows you to run it on road surfaces.
A reliable 2.4 GHz radio and a mid-spec servo are adequate for the TT01E; choose an ESC and motor combination to match your desired speed and battery type.
