The Tamiya 18082 - JR Daihatsu Kopen XMZ adapts a concept car aesthetic into a compact 1/32 Mini 4WD model, giving model makers a vehicle that is both eye catching and ready for tuning. Its design draws directly from the show car spirit while remaining practical for racing.
The Kopen XMZ displays a compact futuristic body with swap-out panels for different looks. The red ABS shell includes defined seat and cabin detail to lift the overall presentation on the bench or the track.
The Super 2 chassis provides a balanced handling profile, built to accept a single-shaft motor and perform consistently on standard Mini 4WD layouts. It is a good platform for racers who tune for cornering or top speed.
The chassis is designed for easy upgrades including motors, tyre choices, gearing changes, and additional ballast or dampers. These options let you tailor the car to suit specific track surfaces and race formats.
The kit requires simple modelling tools like a small Phillips screwdriver and plastic modelling side cutters. The snap-fit parts make construction approachable, and the car runs on two AA batteries which are not supplied.
The Tamiya 18082 - JR Daihatsu Kopen XMZ is well suited to hobbyists who like to tweak handling and appearance. Its Super 2 setup gives a straightforward base for both casual runs and more serious track tuning.
