Juraj Hudy and the XRAY Engineering and Racing Teams have conceptualized and built the XB8 platform based on long-term experience and achievements. The XB8E is the next evolution of the XRAY off-road concept transforming the successful XB8 platform into the electric powered XB8E.
Featuring superior weight balance and weight distribution and more forgiving and easy-to-control handling, the XB8E is ready to set a new standard in the 1/8 electric powered class. Long-term tested by the factory racing team including European Champions Martin Bayer, Miguel Matias & Reno Savoya as well tested by regular drivers in all conditions, the design focuses all the way down to the smallest details to increase performance, handling, and reliability.
Building on the heritage of quality, performance and support evidenced by multiple Car of the Year awards, Viewer’s Choice award, and countless wins and victories at racetracks around the world including the prestigious European Championship title, XRAY is proud to present the new XB8E. Developed, designed and manufactured all in Europe.
