Traxxas E-Revo 1/16th Scale VXL

Traxxas have finally put a date on the long awaited release of the E-Revo 1/16th Scale VXL truck.  The Traxxas E-Revo 1/16 VXL is now available from Amazon here.

What does Traxxas say about the new Traxxas 1/16th E-Revo?

All the speed, quality and capability you expect from Traxxas is available in the new 1/16 E-Revo VXL. At 14 inches long, E-Revo VXL is about half the size of the 1/10-scale E-Revo. But don’t call it a “mini”—this is a whole new category of R/C performance and fun that no mere mini-model can match. Beneath the factory-finished polycarbonate shell, you’ll find the winning suspension technology of the seven-time National Champion Traxxas Revo®, screaming Velineon® brushless-motor power, and the convention-busting innovation of the E-Revo.

Hi Noah,

From everything we could find on independent sites over the net that is the word on the street. However, it is not official so it could be way off the mark.

Time will tell

why the e revo 1/16 scale?

admin April 17, 2009 at 7:30 pm

Because the E-Revo is sexy!! :)

Looks aside, I prefer the wider base that the e-revo has. I think it is a little more stable over rough ground when you are trying to rail that corner to overtake your peeps, either for bragging rights or a trophy!

Did we mention they are damn sexy? Cause they are!! :)

Cheers Noah,

you see i’m kind of scared of buying this thing because i’m afrade it is too small!

admin April 18, 2009 at 12:54 am

It will be a good size to race inside if the weather is really bad or it is snowing! 1/10th scale RCs are a little big for that…….. so we get told anyway! hahaha

Hi Devin,
Thanks for the comment. they do look the business. I am yet to get my hands on one for a test drive, but when I do I think I will need to add one to my collection of Traxxas trucks!

The car is awesome. but traxxas should warn people that it will cost them way more than $300
$1300 at least ;)

Evgen would be interesting to know if the extra cost is from upgrades or broken parts?

Evgen July 17, 2010 at 10:11 am
