Scale construction realism from the Tamiya Mercedes-Benz Arocs 4151

The Tamiya 56365 Mercedes-Benz Arocs 4151 8x4 dump truck kit captures the functional look of a genuine work truck in 1/14 scale. It combines a multi-axle chassis with finely modelled bodywork to give a convincing construction vehicle for display and running sessions.

Robust chassis design and true-to-life suspension

This Arocs model reflects Tamiya's focus on mechanical accuracy. The 8x4 drive layout gives excellent stability under load, while metal leaf springs and friction dampers recreate the suspension behavior you expect from a heavy-duty truck on uneven ground.

Engaging build for kit enthusiasts

Builders will find the assembly process rewarding, with step-by-step instructions that reveal the model's inner workings. The movable dump bed provides practical interaction, letting you simulate loading and unloading tasks once the truck is complete.

Where the Arocs fits in Tamiya's range

Unlike long-haul tractor models in the line, this Arocs 4151 leans into construction-focused features and licensed Mercedes-Benz detail. It offers a different character compared to models like the Volvo FH16, prioritising rugged utility over highway styling.
