Practical Unimog Design on a Tough CC-02 Base

The Mercedes-Benz Unimog is known for its multi-purpose capability, and Tamiya recreates that in scale on the CC-02 chassis. Builders get a robust kit that translates into capable off-road performance when finished and set up correctly.

Durable Frame and Balanced 4WD System

The CC-02 ladder frame gives the model structural strength for demanding use. With the motor mounted behind the front axle and a separate gearbox and transfer case, power is split cleanly to front and rear diffs for consistent traction.

Suspension Built for Trail Confidence

Four-link rigid suspension combined with CVA oil dampers yields steady wheel control and good articulation on uneven ground, helping to maintain momentum over obstacles.

Scale Finishes with Functional Parts

The polycarbonate body is detailed with separate mirrors and a metal-plated grille to add realism. Red wheels and block-pattern tyres not only look the part but aid traction on a range of surfaces.

For enthusiasts wanting a realistic, buildable off-road truck, the Tamiya CC-02 Mercedes-Benz Unimog is a solid platform that supports both scale fidelity and practical trail use.

Lower gearing with a higher torque motor helps with steep climbs. Start with conservative pinion sizes and test on inclines to find the right balance of speed and torque.
There are aftermarket metal driveshafts and diff gears that can improve durability under heavy use. Check compatibility with the CC-02 layout before purchasing.
Use medium-viscosity oil in the CVA dampers and tune spring preload to balance body roll and wheel contact. Adjust incrementally to match tyre grip and load.
With significant modification to gearing, tyres and suspension geometry, the CC-02 can be adapted for crawling, though it may require custom parts to meet specific competition rules.
