For model builders who want a workhorse model with true off-road looks, the Tamiya 58609 Mercedes Benz Unimog 425 delivers. This 1/10 scale kit on the CC-01 platform mirrors the utility and rugged stance of the original Unimog, a vehicle valued for its versatility and strong performance. Historically the Unimog was fitted with about 120hp and a 2.81m wheelbase suited to heavy tasks.
The CC-01 chassis is praised for simple construction and good cross-country manners. Its independent front setup and rear 4-link solid axle give consistent articulation, while 4WD and gear-type differentials provide dependable drive to all wheels.
The clear polycarbonate shell reproduces the Unimog's practical profile, including snorkel, cap vent and mirror placements. Metal-look lamp bezels and the Mercedes-Benz emblem enhance the scale look, and the kit includes LED lights for night running.
With more than 40 Hop-Up Options for the CC-01, you can change gear ratios, increase clearance or strengthen components to match your driving style. The platform supports both cosmetic and performance upgrades.
The Tamiya 58609 Mercedes Benz Unimog 425 is a versatile kit that combines authentic scale detail with a capable chassis for weekend trail runs or display.
