The Tamiya 1/10 scale Hornet Evolution (TAM58742) is an electric off-road RC buggy that reimagines the iconic Hornet design with modern improvements for today's hobbyists. The original Hornet is one of Tamiya's most beloved classics, and this Evolution version builds on that legacy with a contemporary drivetrain layout and refined kit engineering. It's a 1/10 scale kit build, meaning assembly is required before you can hit the dirt — making it a rewarding project for builders who enjoy the process as much as the driving.
