Yahoo Autos The Little Car Company's Tamiya Wild One Max reservations open, and it's not so little anymore
It's been an unexpectedly lengthy and expansive journey for The Little Car Company's Tamiya Wild One Max battery-electric UTV. Announced in 2021 and planned for sale in 2022, the pre-production version didn't get its debut until May of this year. That's because the original concept changed in nearly every major way. The launch model was a single-seater at about 8:10 scale, powered by a 5.5-horsepower motor and a battery that could last about 25 miles on a charge and push the cart up to 30 miles per hour. When the pre-pro specs came out, we discovered the overall footprint had grown to full size, the cockpit had grown to two seats, the battery had grown to 14.4 kWh, and top speed had doubled to 60 mph. With versions ready for launch, we know that range has gone way up, and price, too.
