The Venture18 also marks the return of officially licensed Toyota products to the HPI Racing lineup. The detailed 1985 Toyota Hilux SR5 body comes prepainted and fitted with realistic scale accessories including Toyota emblems, mirrors, bumpers, roll bars, and clear windows for an authentic scale appearance. Functional LED lights with multiple lighting modes and working indicators add even more realism, all controllable directly from the transmitter.

The all-metal 2-speed transmission allows you to switch between low and high gears at the touch of a button, giving you precise crawling control when needed or extra speed for open sections and steeper climbs. Its strong chassis and durable suspension makes it equally suited for trail driving and technical crawling.

The clipless body mounting system makes battery changes and maintenance quick and simple, removing the hassle of traditional body clips. Compact, detailed, and packed with features, the Venture18 delivers impressive scale realism and off-road capability in a fun and versatile 1/18 package.
