Tekno RC enjoying the nitro fumes since the release of the NB48 buggy, and they have now stepped into the 1:8 nitro truggy market! What started as a company devoted to electric conversion kits, has transformed into a heavy hitter in both the electric and nitro scene, have just introduced their new Tekno NT48 truggy!
 
Press Release by Tekno RC:
 
Tekno RC is making waves in the 1:8 nitro scene. The NB48 has caught a lot of people off guard and we’re ready to follow it up with the all new NT48 1:8 Scale Nitro 4WD Competition Truggy Kit.


So now we are very excited to introduce the NT48, a completely new 1/8th Nitro Truggy. Built on the hot-selling EB48 and SCT410 platform, it shares many parts already available around the world. But the real fun begins when you start to notice the details and optimizations we put into the vehicle. Like its electric counterpart, the ET48, this is not a conversion – it’s a ground up nitro truggy design.
