Lamborghini Cheetah 2026 1/12 Assembly Kit - Tamiya 58754  [58754]

Tamiya 58754 - 1/12 Lamborghini Cheetah 2026: compact duralumin 2WD platform with scale-oriented bodywork

This assembly kit renders the Cheetah's striking, doorless silhouette at 1/12 scale and suits modellers who value a visually accurate exterior alongside a mechanically simple platform. The body is molded in sturdy styrene and includes restrained interior detail to support display without extra electronics.

Chassis and mechanical layout

The core of the kit is a lightweight duralumin U-shaped plate arranged for rear-driven 2WD operation. The battery is mounted longitudinally to centralize mass while the motor sits to the rear. A sealed gearbox is used to limit ingress of small debris into the gearing. Space is provided for a radio receiver and rear equipment trays to maintain tidy component placement and balanced weight distribution.

Bodywork and cabin detailing

The styrene body has been sculpted to reflect the Cheetah's angular profile and arrives in a desert yellow tone akin to classic examples. Interior items include a basic meter panel, seat forms and a small fire extinguisher, plus a simple rear mesh plate. Front and rear body supports help the model retain scale lines after assembly, and a driver figure is supplied for display context.

Suspension, wheels and contact patch

All four corners work on independent double wishbones with upper and lower H-arms and flat-mounted longitudinal metal torsion bars. Semi-pneumatic tires carry a flat chevron tread and mount on three-piece wheels secured by five-screw hubs. A duralumin front underguard is included to provide additional protection during handling.

Who this kit is for

The kit bridges display-oriented scale models and mechanically representative hobby builds, making it appropriate for experienced modellers and collectors wanting a faithful exterior paired with a durable mechanical base. Standard radio control and power components are required to complete and operate the model.

Tamiya 58754 combines a faithful styrene body with a practical duralumin 2WD chassis, offering a dependable assembly kit for modellers who value both scale looks and a serviceable mechanical layout.
