HPI: Scion R/C Car

Gear 27 May 2010

The Switch, HPI's first FWD car, comes with a simple but very rigid tub chassis. 聽All heavy items are located low on the chassis so the car corners briskly with minimum roll. FWD and a front midship motor layout give the car stable handling that's perfectly suited for parking lot racing for drivers of all levels. You don't need to be an advanced driver to enjoy the Switch!
