This is the Traxxas TRX-6 Mercedes-Benz G63 6x6 Scale and Trail RTR RC Crawler. This epic, officially-licensed replica of the G63 was done right. Based on the toughest factory all-terrain vehicle ever built, the new TRX-6 features full 6-wheel drive, three remote-locking diffs, portal axles, high/low transmission, and factory-installed LED lighting to top off the spectacular body.
Superior 6x6 Design
A fully independent intermediate axle puts an extra set of driving wheels where you need them most to power over obstacles that would otherwise be impossible. 6-wheel drive also allows greater traction to attack steeper inclines and more grip over loose and rocky surfaces.
Exceptional Body Detail
The TRX-6 Mercedes-Benz G 63 AMG 6x6 faithfully reproduces one of the most exclusive and recognizable all-terrain vehicles ever created. Chrome accents, molded trim, and finely detailed lighting elements highlight the rich metallic paint. Traxxas’ uncompromising attention to detail elevates the TRX-6 to the ultimate expression of beauty and brawn.
Factory-Equipped LED Lighting
Rugged and fully-waterproof, the preinstalled LED lighting blazes a path through the darkest night. Accurate scale details abound in the finely crafted headlights, taillights, and side marker lights. Even the roof visor is fitted with brilliant LED lighting. A dedicated power supply regulates the voltage for bright, consistent, and efficient lighting.
