Tamiya 56340 Captures the Freightliner Cascadia Evolution Lines

The Tamiya 56340 models the Freightliner Cascadia Evolution at 1/14 scale, offering a careful reproduction of the truck's streamlined silhouette. This assembly kit focuses on faithful proportions and cabin detail for hobbyists who value scale appearance.

Sleek Bodywork Recreated with Accuracy

Tamiya worked with Freightliner/Daimler references to reproduce the aerodynamic body profile and cabin features. The kit includes interior elements such as the dashboard and seats, and finishes are enhanced by a combination of gloss and matte metal-plated parts for a realistic look.

Well Engineered Ladder Frame and Gearbox

The chassis uses an aluminum-sided ladder frame with resin cross members to balance strength with accurate layout. A 3-speed gearbox is integrated into the driveline, and a standard trailer coupler makes the model compatible with Tamiya semi-trailers for realistic towing setups.

Authentic Suspension Feel and Power Delivery

Leaf springs and friction dampers recreate the suspension behaviour, while a die-cast front axle and reinforced rear axle add stability. A front-mounted 540-brushed motor transmits torque to the rear axles via prop shafts, and differential gears help maintain smooth turns.

Build time varies with skill level but expect several evenings for assembly and painting, plus extra time for detailing and wiring lights if fitted.
A 7.2V stick-style battery is commonly used with this chassis, but check space and connector compatibility before purchase.
This model is made for on-road use in hobby settings and club tracks; always follow local rules when operating in public spaces.
Tamiya and third-party suppliers offer replacement parts and optional metal upgrades, so maintenance and upgrades are straightforward.
