Tamiya Sets November 21, 2026 Release for 1/10RC Lamborghini Countach 5000S Kit
Tamiya lists the Countach as an RC special project product that will not be continuously produced, so the kit's availability is tied to this run rather than a standing catalog line.

Tamiya is releasing the electric RC car assembly kit 1/10RC Lamborghini Countach 5000S (TT-02 Chassis) on Saturday, November 21, 2026, priced at 20,900 yen including tax. The 1/10 scale kit reproduces the Countach 5000S, the 5-liter version that followed the 1974 LP400. It uses the shaft-drive 4WD TT-02 chassis and is listed as an RC special project product rather than a regular ongoing item.
The Countach 5000S is the version that followed the LP400, which debuted in 1974, and the 5-liter spec arrived in 1982. Tamiya's kit reproduces that car at 1/10 scale on the TT-02, a shaft-drive 4WD chassis that lays the running battery on the left and the motor vertically on the right.
Suspension arms and uprights are shared between left and right for easier assembly, and the vertically split gear case is built for maintenance. Parts can be rearranged to select two types each of wheelbase, ride height, and tread, and the motor mount allows 10 gear ratios.
