About the Model
This Mini 4WD car assembly kit depicts the TOYOTA GR Yaris 4WD sports car which was developed to race in the WRC and announced in 2020. This model captures features of the three-door hatchback such as the prominent radiator grille, bulging rear fenders and roof rear spoiler. The metallic stickers recreate the sporty and aggressive image of the real car, as well as windows, lights, and roof's carbon fiber patterns. The model is based upon the compact, lightweight VZ chassis, a high-performance short wheelbase platform with fin type wheels and small diameter low-profile tires. The chassis is molded in ABS, and it and the A parts are gray. This model is suitable for both high quality driving and display.
