The Scorpion XXL is a brand new concept from Kyosho – a monster size 2WD Buggy (630mm/24.8 in. long) with a scale body design and a modern power system that makes this an all terrain beast. The key is its size - a large size vehicle which is not too big but just the right size. The Scorpion XXL is roughly 20% larger than a 1/8 racing truck (ST-RR Evo) and is about 15% smaller than a 1/5th scale car. This size is perfect for running on a typical 1/8-scale track - no need for a specially designed track. Additionally, it allows the use of a 4S Lipo/brushless power system, which is exceedingly powerful for the Scorpion XXL, but not nearly as expensive as the 8 to 10S power systems need to move the much heavier 1/5-scale machines. The cost of batteries for a 1/5 vehicle alone might be enough to buy this whole car! So, the performance is awesome (even better with an optional 6S compatible ESC) it's right at home on the typical 1/8 track, and the cost of operation is much more reasonable than a 1/5-scale.
