Scania R470 Highline Rendered in Orange

Model builders who like authentic European truck styling will appreciate the Tamiya Scania R470 Highline for its faithful proportions and finish. The Orange Edition includes pre-painted ABS pieces in a bright metallic orange that looks great on display or at the track.

Built From a Real Truck Legacy

The Scania R470 is a mainstay among long distance haulers and this model reflects its sturdy, functional appearance. Tamiya recreates key design cues so the miniature feels true to the real vehicle.

Operational Features for Realistic Running

The Tamiya Scania R470 Highline Orange Edition is engineered as a functional model, with a working 3-speed gearbox and a trailer hitch compatible with Tamiya 1/14 trailers. The cab tilts separately from the fenders, matching the original service layout.

Strong Frame and Suspension Layout

An aluminium ladder chassis with resin cross members offers a rigid platform for operation. Metal leaf springs paired with coil dampers reproduce real-world suspension movement, and builders can select optional upgrades to refine performance.

No, the body panels are supplied pre-painted in metallic orange, so touch up is optional and mainly for repairs or custom schemes.
The kit specifies a 540-brushed type motor; for heavier loads consider a higher torque 540 unit or appropriate gearing changes to improve pulling power.
This chassis is optimised for road style running. Upgrades such as stronger shocks and reinforced drive components can help if you plan on rough surface use.
