Introducing the Tamiya 58212 TL01 Peugeot 406 ST

The Tamiya 58212 recreates the Peugeot 406 ST in 1/10 scale, reproducing the car's lines and proportion in a race-ready shell. The TL01 chassis underpinning this kit offers a straightforward, serviceable layout favoured by many club drivers.

Shaft-Drive TL01 Details

The TL01 chassis uses a central shaft to power all four wheels, which helps with predictable traction on mixed surfaces. Double wishbone suspension at both ends works with coil spring dampers to give a stable, tunable ride while the polycarbonate monocoque keeps weight low.

Speed, Grip and Body Accuracy

The kit is set up around a standard 540 electric motor size, delivering lively on-track performance when matched with suitable gearing. The race-style tyres and accurate polycarbonate body give an authentic Peugeot 406 ST appearance when finished.

Assembly Advice and Component Choices

This is a full assembly kit that includes the Tamiya TEU-101BK ESC but requires a 7.2V battery and radio gear purchased separately. Builders can select batteries and servos to suit their weight and handling preferences.
