The Aero Avante (エアロアバンテ) is a Mini 4WD REV car released by Tamiya in 2012. It is the first release in the Mini 4WD Rev series and is one of the variants of Avante Jr..

General Info

The Aero Avante features a more futuristic and sharper body design. There's a pair of bargeboards on the front and the Formula-1-inspired rear wing attached to the main bodyshell.

In addition to the canopy side air-ducts that were borrowed from the Super Avante, there's also an air-duct on the front designed in a way so as the AR Chassis will have better heat-dissipation.

It is mainly in blue, with white and carbon-mesh highlights on it.

It comes with the metallic gray, 5-spoke, medium-diameter wheels with low-profile slick tires. The chassis is molded completely in black. It should be noted that the Aero Avante comes with the Mini 4WD Starter Pack AR Speed Spec which has blue wheels and blue sub-parts instead.

Color and clear specials

So far, there are six different special color models: Red Special, Clear Blue Special, Clear Orange Special, Violet Special, Clear Red Special and Clear Pink Special. While the colors of the bodyshells and chassis parts are different on each model, the bodyshell still carries the same decal pattern of the original model.

The Red Special comes with the red bodyshell, red chassis sub-parts and bronze-colored wheels while the others come with a clear bodyshell molded in different colors matching the car parts depending on the model.

Only the Clear Red Special and Clear Pink Special are event-exclusives. (Japan Cup 2014 for Clear Red Special and Tamiya Modeler Gallery 2014 for Clear Pink Special)
