Tamiya 1/48 Steyr Type 1500A/01 model overview

Tanks often headline war displays, but light trucks and staff cars give scenes a real sense of function. The Tamiya 1/48 Steyr Type 1500A/01 is a compact kit that slots easily into small dioramas while delivering authentic period character.

Role and engineering of the Steyr Type 1500A/01

The vehicle was selected under prewar production plans for its rugged air-cooled 3.5 litre V8 and 4WD capability. Those traits let it serve flexibly as a personnel carrier, liaison car and light transport across a range of operational tasks.

What the kit offers builders

Detailing on this Tamiya release focuses on faithful exterior shapes and practical assembly. The front doors can be positioned open or shut for display variety, a die-cast chassis gives the model weight and stability, and a driver figure plus three marking schemes are included for quick finishing.
