Front CG with 4WD. So, XV-01’s handling should be similar to most of real 4WD cars.
Great stability & tamed cornering.

Yes, XV-01 looks great 🙂 But I’m not sure about front counter gear, which is propably connected to front pulley… This part isn’t much reliable on 2WD cars, on this 4WD it would be worse.

This XV01 chassis could be the best innovaton in touring cars since the M-chassis.
Now that they release such a specific platform they have to bring us new bodyshells, not just re-release of rally queens.

Yes, a BIG thanks to Honza and Carol 😉
XV-01 looks great – and it has inner fenders too. How cool is that.
I do hope the chassis will be released with som new rally bodies. Not only the WRC cars we see to today, but also from ’70 and ’80.

XV-01 chassis looks very promising!
Hopefully there will come some new body’s for it.
Older subi/lancers are more attractive in my eyes. Bring back the gc8 subi! I’d love a 10th scale GrB celica too.
XV-01 look fully covered so it look promissing for rally. Not only clear roads, but also on gravel… Looking forward to see more asap ….
Definitely getting one!! or Two.. lol
