The Mercedes-Benz G-Class has been known for its durability and capable off-road nature since 1979. The G 320 Cabrio, produced from 1997 to 2001, is a distinctive two-door variant that blends classic styling with solid engineering. Tamiya replicates this model in 1/10 scale and fits it to the adaptable MF-01X chassis.
The MF-01X chassis is suitable for both road use and gentle off-road running. Its monocoque frame includes integrated gearboxes for increased stiffness. A rear-mounted 540-type motor powers the rear through gearing while a propeller shaft routes drive to the front, producing balanced four-wheel drive performance.
The chassis offers wheelbase adjustment from 210mm to 239mm using central spacers and optional prop shafts, allowing you to alter stance and handling. Fully independent double wishbone suspension with friction dampers provides steady control and straightforward servicing.
The Tamiya 58629 MF-01X Mercedes-Benz G 320 Cabrio is a good match for scale enthusiasts who want authentic bodywork combined with a capable, tuneable chassis. It is suitable as both a display model and a fun runner.
