Small footprint, smart engineering: Tamiya Honda e on VZ

The Tamiya Honda e Mini 4WD kit reproduces the clean lines of the electric model while giving hobbyists a nimble VZ chassis to work with. It is suited to both display and short-track racing where agility counts.

Shell finish and sticker kit

The body comes in Yellow ABS to match the car's character, and decal sheets let you add race numbers or custom graphics. The dish-style wheels together with low-profile tyres keep the profile slim and aerodynamic for higher speed sections.

VZ chassis layout and reinforcement

The VZ chassis focuses on weight savings and compact geometry, but includes reinforced areas like the bumper and rear stay base to handle impacts. Black ABS for the chassis and A parts gives a durable backbone for tuning work.

Upgrade paths for different track types

Racers can modify motors, tyres, gears and dampers to match their local track. The kit uses a rear-mounted Type 130 motor with a 3.5:1 gear ratio and includes POM 620 plastic low-friction bearings to improve drivetrain efficiency.

Building notes and battery requirements

The build is a snap-fit style requiring two AA batteries, sold separately. The straightforward assembly makes it accessible to newcomers while still providing room for experienced builders to fine tune the setup.
