Tamiya 57791 - XB DTM 08 Teile (TT01E) Expert Built DTM 1/10 Mercedes AMG C-Class  [57791]

DTM Heritage Recreated on the TT-01E Platform

DTM racing is synonymous with tight competition and specialist race cars; Tamiya channels that heritage in the 57791 XB DTM 08 Teile. This 1/10 scale interpretation of the Mercedes AMG C-Class 2008, driven by B. Schneider, marries period livery with the user-friendly engineering of the TT-01E chassis for a credible on-track model.

Accurate Shell and Race Graphics

The body is moulded from polycarbonate to capture the DTM car's aerodynamic contours and the liveried finish is applied to reflect the original race appearance. LED lights recreate the front and rear illumination, adding realism for evening running or display.

Ready-Made Setup for Immediate Running

The Expert Built assembly arrives with the main R/C units and wheel-trigger transmitter already installed, and it includes a battery pack for the Japanese market. Buyers outside Japan should check local battery and charger requirements. This package reduces the setup work so hobbyists can focus on driving.

Durable Chassis Engineering for Consistent Handling

The TT-01E bathtub frame offers a solid foundation with a shaft-driven full-time 4WD arrangement and a low centre of gravity for stable behaviour. Fibreglass-reinforced nylon components and a 3-piece tie rod increase durability, while the 4-wheel double wishbone suspension and front/rear 3-bevel differentials help maintain traction. An ESC with forward and reverse functions is part of the fitted electronics.

For model collectors and track-goers who prioritise genuine DTM styling and a chassis that is straightforward to maintain, the Tamiya 57791 XB DTM 08 Teile provides a balanced starting point for further tuning.
