Tamiya 58625-60A Motul Autech GT-R 1/10 Kit for TT-02 Touring Chassis  [58625-60A]

58625-60A Motul Autech GT-R on the TT-02 platform: precise styling with a serviceable chassis

Chassis and mechanical layout

The model sits on the TT-02 shaft-driven 4WD layout, favoured for its clear build sequence and dependable handling. Battery and motor placement are offset to help achieve a neutral mass distribution that promotes straight-line stability. Using matched left and right suspension parts reduces parts variance and speeds assembly, while the chassis accepts different wheelbase and ride-height options without core modifications.

Bodywork, livery and detailing

The clear polycarbonate body reproduces the Motul Autech GT-R profile with separate wing and mirror components, plus additional aero pieces supplied separately. Decals recreate sponsor graphics and the distinct red livery panels. Wheel hubs are cast to suggest brake discs and the package includes black 6-spoke wheels with slick tyres to mirror the competition look.

Design decisions that matter

TT-02 design choices lean toward accessibility rather than pure competition tuning: resin 4-bevel differentials, friction dampers, and a bathtub-style frame prioritise simplicity and robustness. The drivetrain and suspension selection make this kit appropriate for hobbyists who want a realistic appearance with easy maintenance.

Suitability for builders and collectors

This kit suits builders who value accurate livery and an easily serviceable chassis. It works well as a display piece that can also be run on occasion, and its straightforward parts layout makes it a realistic project for first-time TT-02 builders and collectors alike.

Tamiya's 58625-60A Motul Autech GT-R combines faithful livery detail with the user-friendly TT-02 chassis for an attractive build that balances appearance and practicality.
