The HPI Racing WR8 FLUX is the return of the ever popular WR8 family, in the form of the classic 2001 WRC Subaru Impreza, piloted to win the Driver's Championship in 2001. The officially licensed and famous replica Impreza body carries the illustrious blue and yellow livery — one of the most recognisable in the sport.

Underneath the body, the WR8 FLUX chassis is based on the HPI Bullet RC monster truck, making it massively tough and able to take a real beating on- or off-road. It is powered by a FLUX MMH-4000 brushless motor and waterproof 3S-capable EMH-3S speed controller, delivering power through tough metal gear differentials and a full ball bearing-supported 4WD shaft drivetrain. WR8 rally-style suspension geometry, custom-designed shock towers and dampers, and extra-thick sway bars provide extra control. High-spec, soft compound tyres and authentic rally wheels complete the package.

Like all HPI Racing RTR (Ready-To-Run) cars, the WR8 FLUX is completely pre-built: open the box, install the batteries, and you are ready to go. All you need to provide is a 2S or 3S LiPo battery, a LiPo charger, and AA batteries for the transmitter.

HPI TF-41 Transmitter

The HPI Racing Series of vehicles is designed to be as simple to use as possible. Simply plug in the battery, turn on the car and radio, and you're ready to race! The intuitive controls make it easy to learn the ropes, so you can quickly start enjoying the thrill of RC driving.

Brushless Power

The WR8 FLUX is equipped with a high-performance FLUX MMH-4000 brushless motor and EMH-3S electronic speed control. This powerful combination delivers exhilarating acceleration and the ability to pull out of even the most aggressive drifts. The EMH-3S ESC features a built-in cooling fan, reverse functionality, and is fully programmable with the optional USB Programming Kit.

20th Anniversary

Celebrate the return of the WR8 with the iconic 2001 WRC Subaru Impreza. This legendary rally car, driven to victory in the 2001 Driver's Championship, is back and ready to rekindle the passion of rally fans everywhere.

Super Realistic Rally Wheels And Real Rubber Tyres

The HPI WR8 FLUX 2001 WRC Subaru Impreza is equipped with a winning combination of style and performance. Realistically styled bronze rally wheels and high-grip HPI tyres deliver exceptional traction and handling, while the self-cleaning tread pattern ensures optimal performance on a variety of surfaces, from smooth tarmac to loose dirt.

Suspension Just like a Full-Size Rally Car

The WR8 FLUX's suspension is engineered for maximum performance and adjustability, just like the cars that inspired it. Double wishbone suspension, coil-over oil-filled shocks, and thick sway bars provide the precise handling and tunability needed to conquer any rally stage.

Fully Adjustable

Unleash your inner tuner with the HPI WR8 FLUX. This highly adjustable car allows you to fine-tune settings like ride height and shock angle, just like a real race car.
