Product Information
Check out the new macho addition to the Savage line-up! The Savage XL is the super-large, extra-tough and supremely powerful bigger brother to the Savage monster trucks. With a longer wheelbase, wider stance and huge 5.9cc (.36 cubic inch) engine, the Savage XL is ready to rock and roll right out of the box!
We were looking to expand the Savage range of monster trucks and had to consider what would capture the imagination and hearts of legions of HPI Savage fans. HPI designers settled on a larger, fun-oriented version of the Savage with massive great tyres, a giant chunky bodyshell and powered by the biggest engine ever offered in a production Savage monster truck. The end result is the Savage XL! The Savage XL definitely looks the part of the massive monster truck! The extended wheelbase is the perfect evolution of the Savage design, and the extended chassis and larger tyres are a perfect match for the new, bigger ‘Gigante’ bodyshell! The wide front grille and huge headlights of the XL bodyshell merge with the flared wheel arches front and rear for a huge ‘wow factor’, adding to the impression of huge size and strength! The tall, wide Terra Pin tyres fit the bodyshell perfectly for a fantastic scale look that’s sure to intimidate the opposition at your local bashing arena! Finally, while the new 8-hole wheels look huge, they use a standard 17mm hex hub so it’s easy to change the look and style of the XL as often as you like! The Savage XL isn’t all just looking great, but we went all-out to make sure it looks as impressive as it performs! At the heart of the Savage XL is the all-new, monstrous Nitro Star K5.9 engine! This 5.9cc (.36 cubic inch) powerplant gives the XL loads of torque for turning the giant tyres, giving the truck the muscle to power over obstacles and through the toughest terrain and conditions. The K5.9 engine delivers the muscle and grunt that you’ll want for powering the Savage XL over any type of terrain and through any obstacle! The low powerband supplies the torque for getting the XL up to speed fast, and the curved manifold and aluminium tuned pipe get the most power out of the engine. The K5.9 is also fitted with a Roto-Start 2 for easy starting, a vented heavy-duty clutchbell and aluminium 3-shoe clutch for tough and reliable power transfer and a giant heatsink head so you won’t have to worry about overheating! HPI makes it as easy as possible for beginners to get into Nitro RC. The Savage XL RTR it is completely pre-built and ready to go right out of the box! Everything is assembled and tuned for you by professionals - diffs, slipper clutch, shocks and more are perfect before you even open the kit and with all the top Savage options already installed, so you don't have to do a thing to get going fast! HPI Ready-To-Run models bring you the same high performance and quality that you'd expect from a high end model car kit but with the added convenience of being factory pre-assembled to the highest standards - giving you a high performance RC truck straight from the box!
