Highlights

Size Wins

Size Wins

At the end of the day, size always wins. X-Maxx plows over obstacles and muscles through extreme terrain that leaves lesser trucks stranded. Mammoth 8-inch-tall tyres, long-arm suspension, and huge ground clearance dwarf the surroundings for virtually unstoppable monster truck fun.

Extreme Power

Extreme Power

At Traxxas, too much power is never enough! The durability of the VXL-8s™ is matched only by the sheer ferocity of its 8s 30+ volt LiPo muscle. The speed-tuned 1200XL Big Block motor propels X-Maxx with brutal authority and exacting quickness that warps your senses. No matter what you have driven in the past, nothing will prepare you for X-Maxx.

All-Metal Drivetrain

All-Metal Drivetrain

X-Maxx puts its massive power to the ground through an all-metal 8s driveline backed by the revolutionary Cush Drive® system, high-strength extruded aluminium centre shaft, and our strongest steel driveshafts ever. The Torque-Biasing Centre Drive improves driveline durability and drives huge steel 4-gear differentials.

Belted Sledgehammer Tyres

Belted Sledgehammer Tyres

X-Maxx’s belted Sledgehammer tyres deliver game-changing stability and control whether you’re slinging mud or setting speed records. The wide, open-block tread design won’t clog up with dirt or debris and the lightweight belting maintains the tyre’s shape for a larger contact patch, more grip, and responsive handling at any speed.

Maxx Power

Maxx Power

Equipped with a powerful VXL-8S ESC and 1275kv Brushless motor, the X-Maxx can rocket itself to 80+ KMH (with optional gear), Not only does it have huge speed potential, it's also built with all the grunt and power you need to bash anywhere you want.

Traxxas Stability Management

Traxxas Stability Management

Traxxas Stability Management TSM® works behind the scenes to help harness X-Maxx’s brutal power for maximum acceleration and ultimate control. TSM works behind the scenes, reducing oversteer to avoid spinouts without ever limiting power output.
