Lotus 78: Aerodynamic Innovation in Miniature

The Lotus 78 introduced new aerodynamic thinking with a narrow monocoque and side pontoons to boost downforce in 1977. Driven by Mario Andretti and Gunnar Nilsson, the car won attention for its performance and influenced later design direction.

Faithful 1/20 Scale Crafting

Tamiya's model accurately renders the low-slung Lotus silhouette and Team Lotus gloss black paint, including Mario Andretti's No.5 markings. The representation highlights the DFV engine layout, transmission and suspension assemblies for a convincing scale effect.

Premium Parts and Finish

Fine photo-etched parts are included to reproduce wing fittings and buckles, and metal transfers simulate mirror faces. The kit sits on realistic rubber tyres and is completed with a display base and clear cover for exhibition.

  • Scale: 1/20
  • Length: 225mm
  • Width: 102mm
  • Materials: Plastic, metal transfers, rubber tires
  • Assembly Type: Finished display model

Can I remove the clear cover without damaging the model?

The cover is removable; lift it straight up and handle the model by the base to avoid touching delicate photo-etched parts or transfers.

Are the tyres from original supplier?

The rubber tyres are moulded to match the scale profile of the original car and are supplied as part of the finished presentation to replicate the authentic look.

Is painting or gluing required?

No assembly or painting is required; the model is finished and ready to display, which makes it suitable for those who prefer a display-ready item over a build kit.
