The Kyosho Inferno series of 1/8 scale GP buggies is known as a top-class racing model in countries around the world. Based on the Inferno, the Inferno NEO 4.0 is sold as a ready-to-run set with the chassis assembled, R/C mechanics and engine installed, and body painted. The Inferno NEO 4.0 also comes with a wheel-type transmitter, so after purchasing the kit, simply install batteries in the transmitter and chassis, add fuel, and it's ready to run. The engine starts easily, so even those with no prior experience with GP models can easily drive this GP buggy. The body included in the kit is the same as the EP (electric) model Inferno NEO 4.0VE.

The high-torque steering and throttle servos adopted in this model enable reliable operation even in the demanding conditions of off-road driving.
