Why Choose the Mercedes-Benz 190 E EVO II?

The Mercedes-Benz 190 E EVO II is one of the most desirable touring cars from the golden era of DTM racing. Interestingly, only around 500 road-going examples were produced to meet homologation requirements, making it one of the most collectible classic Mercedes-Benz performance cars today.

Its enormous rear wing attracted plenty of attention when first introduced, but proved highly effective on the racetrack. Combined with its high-revving 2.5-liter engine and advanced aerodynamics, the EVO II became one of the fiercest competitors of its era.

Tamiya’s TT-02 version combines this iconic motorsport heritage with a durable and beginner-friendly 4WD chassis, creating an RC model that is equally enjoyable to build, drive, and display.
