Check out the new addition to the Savage line-up! The Savage XL is the extra-large, extra-tough and extra-powerful big brother to the Savage X monster truck. For improved stability and handling, the Savage XL has a 55mm longer wheelbase and a 25mm wider track. 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. The HPI design team added strategically strengthened hop-up parts to tame the massive K5.9 power for unmatched durability. The Savage XL soaks up the rough stuff with ease because it’s the biggest, toughest, and most powerful Savage ever! Awesome XL Looks! 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 tires are a perfect match for the new, bigger ‘GT Gigante’ body! The wide front grill and huge headlights of the GT Gigante body merge with the flared wheel arches front and rear for a huge ‘wow factor,’ adding to the impression of huge size and strength! The large Terra Pin tires fit the body perfectly for a scale monster truck look that’s sure to intimidate the opposition at your local bashing arena! But the Savage XL isn’t about just looking great, the HPI designers went all-out to make sure it performs as good as it looks!
