The Tamiya 57748 XB Desert Gator delivers a reliable off-road platform straight from the box, offering a good balance of toughness and approachable handling for regular bashing sessions. It suits both casual drivers and those building driving skills.
Equipped with a transverse Type RS540 motor, the 2WD chassis uses 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension and oil dampers to absorb impacts and keep the tyres planted. This layout helps when carrying speed over rough ground.
The pre-finished polycarbonate body resists scuffs and keeps the buggy looking sharp, while the sealed differential gearbox reduces dirt intrusion for longer service intervals. The tyre pairing of grooved fronts and spiked rears gives strong traction off the line.
Supplied fully assembled with pre-applied decals, the model includes an Expec SP R/C unit, wheel transmitter and TEU-101 ESC so you can start running after fitting batteries. Batteries are not supplied so you can pick the best option for your driving style.
With its combination of durability and ready-to-run convenience, the XB Desert Gator is a practical choice for enthusiasts who like to spend time out on varied terrain.
