About the Jato 4×4 VXL
Unleashed Power
At the heart of the Jato 4×4 is the powerful Velineon® 540XL brushless motor paired with the VXL-4s™ speed control. This high-performance combo delivers 4s LiPo power, allowing the buggy to exceed speeds of 60 mph with breathtaking acceleration. The motor’s low-maintenance design and 4-pole configuration ensure smooth, efficient operation, while the built-in telemetry and selectable BEC voltages enhance user control and customization. Whether on the track or in your backyard, this buggy is a true powerhouse.
Track-Ready Handling
The Jato 4×4’s low, wide stance and balanced weight distribution provide razor-sharp handling, perfect for aggressive racing. Aluminum XX-long GTR shocks keep the Response Pro tires in contact with the ground for maximum traction and consistent performance. Add the optional sway bar kit for even tighter cornering and improved track performance. With its robust suspension system, the Jato 4×4 excels on any terrain, making it as versatile as it is fast.
Built for Durability
Designed to handle the toughest conditions, the Jato 4×4 features factory-installed Extreme Heavy Duty driveline and suspension components. Reinforced C-hubs, axle carriers, and shock towers provide superior strength, while Maxx-duty driveshafts effortlessly transfer the motor’s torque to all four wheels. An aluminum T-Bar chassis stiffener ensures structural integrity, even under intense action, making this buggy as durable as it is powerful.
