JQ Products has announced today the official release of THEeCar 1:8 electric buggy. THEeCar is no surprise, as it has been publicly winning races worldwide quite frequently over the past months. THEeCar is based off of the nitro format, with changes to the chassis and drivetrain components.

THEeCar is finally here! Here being all around the world in hobby shops! They have shipped and arrived at most of our distributors! THEeCar has ironically proved to be more successful it's nitro big brother. Painful to admit but true, multiple podiums and even some wins in USA at Grassroots and JBRL Events, a win at the Russian RedBull GP and win at the Rhein Main Warm Up in Germany just in the last few weeks.

THEeCar uses the same front and rear gearbox assemblies as the nitro version, with only the chassis, left sideguard, centre diff/ motormount and dogbones being different. The body is also different, but the same one is now used on the wide chassis for the nitro.
