Tamiya 46609 Mercedes-Benz 190E RTR TT-01ES Heritage Model  [46609]

Classic Touring Replica from Tamiya 46609

The Tamiya 46609 RTR Mercedes-Benz 190E captures the spirit of a landmark touring car era. The full-size 190E made waves with its 16-valve engine and Evolution II race versions, and this scale model brings that presence to the bench and track.

TT-01ES Platform Overview

Built on the dependable TT-01ES platform, this ready-to-run car keeps setup straightforward while allowing access to a wide catalogue of Tamiya Option Parts. The shaft-driven 4WD system helps spread torque evenly for steady corner exits and predictable behaviour on mixed surfaces.

Scale-Correct Body and Styling

The painted black polycarbonate body is trimmed with realistic mirrors and a rear wing that echo the original 190E silhouette. The grooved tyres and 6-spoke grey wheels complete the replica look suitable for display or spirited driving.

Practical Setup for Local Driving

Equipped with a Tamiya TEU-104BK ESC with reverse and a 540 motor, the car delivers a dependable, maintainable driving experience. Friction dampers and independent double wishbone suspension provide durable support, while non-adjustable camber and caster keep setup simple for those who prefer minimal tuning.

The Tamiya 46609 RTR Mercedes-Benz 190E is a fine choice for modellers who like authentic styling with a fuss-free drive setup. It is robust enough for local club runs and attractive enough for shelf display.
