Why the Monster Beetle Still Rocks
What makes the Monster Beetle such an enduring favorite? For starters, it retains the unmistakable charm of the Volkswagen Beetle, now in a paintable polystyrene body that's both durable and customizable. Add in the iconic driver figure, and you’ve got a model that’s as fun to build as it is to drive.
A Suspension System Built for Adventure
This beast comes equipped with a durable space frame and a four-wheel independent suspension system that defies rugged terrains. The CVA oil dampers and resin front bumper ensure that each ride is smooth, no matter how wild the landscape gets. Whether you're tackling rocky paths or sandy dunes, the Monster Beetle eats bumps for breakfast.
Performance Features That Impress
Powering this classic is a robust 540 motor, complemented by an electronic speed control (ESC) for efficient power management. The massive 130mm diameter and 58mm width lug pattern pin spike tires ensure maximum traction, while the sealed gearbox with a differential gear keeps dirt and debris at bay, ensuring longevity.
