Description

Tamiya Scania 770 S 6×4 Silver Edition – 56373

The Tamiya Scania 770 S 6×4 Silver Edition – 56373 is a stunning 1/14 scale RC tractor truck recreating Scania’s flagship S-Series in an impressive three-axle 6×4 configuration.

This special version features a beautifully factory-finished silver cab, giving the truck a superb appearance straight from the box while retaining all the mechanical detail that makes Tamiya’s 1/14 Tractor Truck Series so popular.

With its imposing modern Scania styling, twin driven rear axles, working 3-speed transmission and detailed ladder-frame chassis, the 770 S makes an impressive model whether displayed on its own or coupled to a Tamiya semi-trailer.

Factory-Finished Silver Cab

The highlight of this edition is the professionally finished silver bodywork.

The factory-applied finish gives the Scania a clean, modern appearance while removing much of the work involved in painting such a large truck cab.

Additional smaller components may still require assembly and finishing as part of the build.

Modern Scania 770 S Styling

Tamiya has carefully recreated the distinctive appearance of the Scania S-Series, including its large modern cab, imposing front grille and detailed exterior components.

The model also features a realistically reproduced interior, making this an excellent basis for further scale detailing and customisation.

Heavy-Duty 6×4 Chassis

Underneath the cab is Tamiya’s proven ladder-frame truck chassis, designed to recreate the construction of a full-size heavy tractor unit.

The Scania uses a 6×4 drivetrain, with a steering front axle and two driven rear axles. This gives the model an authentic heavy-haul appearance and makes it particularly impressive when paired with one of Tamiya’s larger semi-trailers.

Working 3-Speed Transmission

The Scania 770 S features Tamiya’s mechanical 3-speed transmission.

With suitable multi-channel radio equipment and a gear-change servo installed, gears can be selected remotely while driving, adding another level of realism to the experience.

Realistic Truck Suspension

The chassis uses metal leaf-spring suspension, closely following the basic layout of a full-size commercial truck.

Combined with the multi-axle drivetrain and detailed chassis equipment, this gives the completed model the stance and mechanical appearance expected from Tamiya’s premium 1/14 truck range.

Compatible with Tamiya Semi-Trailers

The fifth-wheel coupling allows the Scania to be connected to compatible Tamiya 1/14 scale semi-trailers.

Pair it with a reefer, container, flatbed, dry van or other suitable trailer to create an imposing complete truck combination.
