Traxxas is one of the biggest names in RC cars, building fast, tough, ready-to-run models in America since 1986.

Popular Traxxas Models
Traxxas X-Maxx & Sledge
Traxxas's giant monster trucks. The X-Maxx 8S is built for huge jumps and serious speed, with Traxxas Stability Management (TSM) to keep it planted. The Sledge 6S brings that same bash-hard attitude to a 1/8 package.
Traxxas Slash
One of the most popular RC trucks ever made. Choose the Slash 4X4 Ultimate for top-spec 4WD brushless performance, or the 2WD Slash VXL and Slash BL-2s for an affordable brushless short course truck.
Traxxas Rustler 4X4
A fast, agile 1/10 stadium truck that handles jumps, tight turns and high-speed passes. The brushless Rustler 4X4 is available in red and blue.
Traxxas TRX-4 & TRX-6 Crawlers
Realistic scale crawlers with portal axles and remote-locking differentials, built for slow, technical driving over rocks and trails. Choose the TRX-4 Land Rover Defender, or step up to the six-wheel TRX-6 Mercedes-Benz G 63 AMG 6x6, a licensed scale replica with all six wheels driven.
Traxxas Bigfoot, Jato & 1/5 Pro Scale Sand Car
The Bigfoot BL-2s is a classic monster truck with modern brushless power. The Jato 4X4 is a fast, low buggy, and the giant 8S 1/5 Pro Scale Sand Car is built for wide-open speed.

Traxxas FAQs
What do BL-2s, VXL, 6S and 8S mean on Traxxas cars?
They describe the power system. BL-2s models use a brushless system designed for 2S LiPo batteries. VXL models are higher-powered brushless setups for more speed. 6S and 8S trucks like the Sledge and X-Maxx run bigger battery packs for maximum power.
Which Traxxas is best for beginners?
The Slash and Rustler are great first Traxxas cars. They're tough, easy to drive and well supported with parts. For smaller spaces or younger drivers, look at the Traxxas 1/18 range.
Do Traxxas RC cars come with a battery and charger?
It depends on the model and kit, so check the "in the box" details on each product page. If you need a battery or charger, we can recommend the right setup, including Traxxas iD-compatible packs and chargers.
