About the Mercedes-Benz 190 E 2.5-16 EVO II
The German Touring Car racing series known as DTM began its roots in 1984 with significant rule changes over the decades. In the early 1990’s interest in the series reached elevated levels as Mercedes Benz battled archrival BMW among other brands for on-track supremacy. During DTM’s championship contention, Mercedes introduced 190 E 2.5-16 EVO II in 1991. Based upon the compact Mercedes-Benz 190 E, it was given improved aerodynamics with components such as over fenders, front and rear spoilers and a large rear wing, and employed a 2.5-liter inline-4 DOHC engine capable of 340hp. In the same year, the works team car sponsored by German beer brand König Pilsener secured second place in the Championship and brought the Manufacturer’s Championship to Mercedes-Benz.
Adaptable TT-02 Chassis offers balanced shaft driven 4WD.
The shaft driven 4WD TT-02 chassis employs a longitudinal layout with the battery on the left and the motor on the right, to offer excellent stability. In addition, it features identical left and right suspension arms and uprights for ease of assembly, plus easy-to-maintain gearboxes. It is a highly adaptable chassis, as it offers 2 different wheelbases, 2 ground clearance settings and 2 tread set-ups in addition to a range of 10 possible gear ratios. It is not short on looks either, with brake disc-shaped wheel hubs and stylish front bumper supports.
Key Features:
- 1/10 scale R/C model assembly kit. Length: 445mm, width: 184mm, height: 137mm. Wheelbase: 257mm.
- The Mercedes-Benz 190 E 2.5-16 EVO II is made of lightweight, rigid 1.0mm thick polycarbonate. This edition includes pre-painted body with pre-cut wheel arches and pre-made body mount holes. Note: Livery stickers still need to be applied.
- Separate black ABS plastic parts realistically depict side mirrors, rear-wing, front grille and emblems.
- The efficient shaft-driven 4WD TT-02 chassis features superior adaptability and stability.
- Silver color dish wheels are paired with racing slick tires.
- Includes livery stickers and window masking tape for use in the painting process.
