What Makes the Tamiya 84136 MiTo Special

The Tamiya 84136 Alfa Romeo MiTo brings a compact European hatchback to the RC scene with convincing bodywork and simple, effective chassis design. It recreates the three-door MiTo silhouette while remaining easy to run for hobbyists.

Detailed Exterior and Practical Build

The polycarbonate body reproduces the MiTo's signature grille and contours, with separate lamp housings for added scale realism. Mounted on the M-05 front-wheel-drive chassis, the model delivers responsive steering and composed behaviour.

M-05 Chassis Layout and Suspension

The semi-monocoque resin frame keeps components protected and assembly straightforward. Strategic placement of motor and battery yields a low center of gravity, and the double wishbone suspension with 3-piece steering gives reliable cornering performance.

Included Controls and Notes on Batteries

Included is a wheel-trigger FM transmitter with removable grips and trigger covers to suit different hand sizes. Keep in mind the battery pack and charger are included only in Japan.
