Iconic Rally Replica: Tamiya 58278 Lancia 037 RA

The Tamiya 58278 Lancia 037 RA recreates a landmark rally machine at 1/10 scale, honoring the Group B spirit of the early 1980s. The original Lancia featured a Sergio Pininfarina-designed fiberglass reinforced resin body and a supercharged engine producing in excess of 300 horsepower.

Faithful Exterior and Cabin Details

Tamiya's kit reproduces the distinctive front with four headlights and includes driver and co-driver figures plus period-correct rally decals to capture the event look and atmosphere.

Efficient Powertrain Layout

Under the body sits the TA-03R chassis with a belt-driven full-time 4WD system. The FRP bathtub main frame holds gearboxes supported by nine ball bearings, which help lower drivetrain losses and boost on-throttle response.

Controlled Handling Package

With independent double wishbone suspension and tuned wheel dampers, the model delivers stable handling on sealed surfaces. Semi-slick tyres are fitted for predictable lateral grip during spirited runs.
