RTR Performance Straight From the Box!
HPI makes it as easy for beginners to get into Nitro RC. The Savage XL RTR it is completely pre-built and ready to go right out of the box! HPI Ready-To-Run models bring you the same high performance and quality that you expect from racing kits with the added convenience of being factory pre-assembled to the highest standards.

Everything is assembled and tuned for you by professionals - radio system, diffs, slipper clutch, shocks and more are perfect before you even open the box! Just a few steps are needed to get your car up and running, such as adding the batteries to the transmitter and breaking in the engine - which is now even easier with our comprehensive manual.

Easy to Drive
All this power and durability gets you nowhere unless the truck is easy to drive and can get you through the rough stuff, so the HPI designers made sure that the Savage XL can take everything you can through it at and come through handling like a champ!  The first thing that hits the ground are the huge HPI Terra Pin tires, which feature a tall sidewall and tough spikes to rip through grass and loose dirt. The tall tires make handling the rough stuff easy, and the ground clearance of more than 3 inches gets you over obstacles with room to spare!  The longer wheelbase and wider stance of the Savage XL allow it to handle even rougher terrain than other Savage monster trucks. When the going gets rough you want the size, power and strength of the Savage XL!

The Savage XL - Extra Large Size and Mega Power!
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!

Size does matter...
Bigger in every dimension than the standard Savage X, the Savage XL is longer, wider, taller, more ground clearance and tires that are nearly 7" in diameter! It's based on the practically indestructible Savage X chassis and features durability upgrades like thicker 3mm TVP chassis plates, 3mm alloy engine plate, machine-cut steel differential rings and pinion bevel gears, steel spur gear, heavy-duty clutchbell, extra heavy-duty dogbones, larger diff outdrives, machined brake hub, dual fiber disk brakes and much more!

Extra-long alloy chassis
To get the long wheelbase of the Savage XL, the HPI designers developed all-new extended TVP (Twin Vertical Plate) chassis made from 3mm thick 6061 aluminum. 6061-series aluminum is light and strong and provides the strength for stretching the Savage platform to its limits! The chassis has Savage XL logos etched into the chassis to really make it stand out! The engine is fitted to a one-piece engine mount with an extra-thick 3mm engine mounting plate. These are the thickest TVP and engine plate parts ever offered on a Savage monster truck, giving the Savage XL the strength to withstand the torque of the massive Nitro Star K5.9 engine.
