The Evolution of Precision: Tamiya's TB Evolution V Chassis
The Tamiya 58371 TB Evolution V Chassis represents a leap forward in the world of R/C on-road cars. This high-performance chassis is designed with precision and adaptability in mind, making it a top choice for competitive racers and enthusiasts alike. Building on feedback from its predecessor, the TB Evo IV, this model refines key aspects to enhance performance on the track.
Redefining Steering Dynamics
One of the standout features of the TB Evolution V is its completely redesigned steering unit.

The steering system is positioned lower, optimizing the center of gravity for improved stability.
Innovative Chassis Design
The TB Evolution V's chassis is a marvel of engineering, featuring a carbon double deck frame that combines a 2.5mm lower and a 2.0mm upper deck. This configuration ensures a sturdy yet lightweight build, critical for achieving optimal weight distribution. The new aluminum bulkheads contribute to significant weight savings, enhancing the overall agility of the car.
Advanced Suspension and Durability
Equipped with a reversible suspension system, the TB Evolution V offers unparalleled responsiveness and customization options. This flexibility allows racers to fine-tune their setups for different track conditions. Additionally, the durable aluminum diff joint and plastic swing shaft protector ensure smooth operation under demanding circumstances.
