The Audi Quattro A2 helped reshape rally competition in the 1980s, and this Tamiya 1/10 kit aims to reproduce that era's stance and proportions. The TT-02 chassis gives a dependable foundation for display builds or performance tweaks at the track.
The TT-02 chassis features a shaft-driven 4WD system with a longitudinal component layout that positions the battery on the left and the motor on the right to aid balance. Its use of identical suspension pieces and straightforward gearboxes makes it easy to service and modify.
Owners can fine-tune handling via adjustable wheelbase and ride height options, tweak track width, and choose from ten gear ratios to suit different circuits or driving styles. Details such as brake-disc style hubs and reinforced bumper mounts provide a realistic finish straight from the box.
The shell is moulded from robust polycarbonate to preserve correct curves and resist impacts. Metal-plated ABS parts replicate the original light surrounds and fog lamp trims, while the white ABS mirrors and wing caps complete the authentic fittings.
Silver five-spoke wheels combined with rally radial tyres evoke the Quattro's competition roots and perform well on smooth surfaces. Headlight housings can accept optional LEDs for night visuals, while fog lamp inserts are non-illuminated to match historical appearance.
Whether for display or club racing, the Tamiya Audi Quattro A2 on the TT-02 chassis provides a convincing period shell along with a chassis that is easy to build and upgrade over time.
