Tamiya 58489 Avante 2011 1/10 RC Buggy Kit - Durable 4WD Off-Road Performer  [58489]

Avante 58489 Returns with Stronger Components

The Avante made its name with an innovative layout and this re-release keeps that DNA while adding modern reinforcement. The Avante 58489 is updated to handle aggressive off-road runs while staying true to the original drive concept.

Core engineering that endures

The classic shaft-driven 4WD and double-deck chassis philosophy are preserved. The main decks now use carbon fibre instead of FRP, increasing structural integrity and giving the car a more consistent feel under heavy cornering and jumps.

Reinforcements for rough running

Toughness is improved with a thicker carbon rear damper stay that resists damage from impacts. The polycarbonate shell gives more resilience to scrapes and impacts, so the buggy survives rough practice sessions with less body damage.

Better control and easier service

To reduce drivetrain drag the model uses assembly universal shafts front and rear for smoother power delivery. The oil dampers are fitted with bottom caps to make O-ring replacement and damper servicing faster and cleaner between sessions.

Specifications

The Tamiya Avante 58489 is a solid reissue for hobbyists who want a buildable classic with modern reinforcements. It suits those who run hard and want a dependable, serviceable platform.
