Period-Correct Touring Car for Scale Modellers

TT-01E Chassis Engineering for Consistent Handling

Underneath the body sits the TT-01 Type E chassis with a shaft-driven 4WD arrangement that delivers even traction on sealed surfaces. The motor and battery are positioned for a lower centre of gravity, improving turn-in and stability. Fibreglass reinforced nylon on the top deck and gear covers adds necessary stiffness for reliable performance.

Detailed Bodywork and Tuning Potential

The polycarbonate shell captures the car's profile and is complemented by moulded parts including mirrors and wings, plus a plated Mercedes badge. Marking stickers are supplied to recreate the No.20 race livery. Finished with soft green 6-spoke wheels and slick tyres, the kit balances show authenticity with scope for setup changes.

The Tamiya 58656 - 1/10 Mercedes-Benz 190E Debis TT-01 Type E is a sensible choice for enthusiasts who want a collectible touring car that is also straightforward to run and tune at club tracks.
