We are starting the first phase of PRE-ORDERS for the new Mugen Seiki MTC-3 touring car. Expected Retail Price $1159

What is known so far?

Delivery date
Production is in full swing. Mugen Seiki has not yet given us an exact date. 
However, we are talking about April 2025, so we hope to be able to offer you the kits in April - updates to follow!

Details about the car
We can't reveal much here before the official release by Mugen Seiki. Many of you will have been able to admire Ronald Völker's car at the ETS, the GP3F or during testing in Hasloh. The car is completely new and apart from the cardans, spool and diff, nothing from the MTC-2R fits into the new MTC-3. Many innovations and a great design await you!

Variants
The Mugen Seiki MTC-3 will ONLY be available with an aluminum chassis - NO carbon fiber. This has been the result of intensive testing by the team and is certainly a good thing. For those asking about a steel chassis: there will probably be an optional steel chassis - whether it will be available immediately when the cars arrive we don't know!

Successes
Although only prototypes were in use, the MTC-3 has already achieved very good results.

Mugen Seiki is excited to announce the NEW MTC3 1/10 electric touring car kit.

The MTC3 is an evolution of the highly successful MTC2 and MTC2R platform.  The prototype was first raced at the 2024 IFMAR World Championship, where the two MTC3’s entered in the event both made the A final in its first event with Ronald Volker finishing 4th and Jacob Cruz finishing 10th.  Below is a list of features and details for the Mugen Seiki MTC3 1/10th Electric Touring Car.
