The HPI Savage XL Nitro SBK (160550) is a premium self‑build nitro monster truck kit designed for hobbyists who want the full hands‑on experience of assembling one of the most iconic bashers ever made. The SBK (“Self Build Kit”) format gives you complete freedom to choose your own big‑block nitro engine, servos, radio system, and electronics, making it ideal for experienced builders who want a personalized, high‑performance setup.

Built around HPI’s legendary Twin Vertical Plate (TVP) chassis, the Savage XL SBK delivers extreme rigidity and durability, engineered to withstand high‑power nitro engines and aggressive off‑road abuse. The kit includes the same heavy‑duty components found in the Savage XL 5.9 GTXL‑6, plus upgraded drivetrain parts such as steel second and third gears, machined 29/9T differentials, and a Super HD drivetrain for maximum longevity under brutal loads.

The truck features big‑bore oil shocks, 3‑speed transmission, dual disc brakes, 3‑shoe aluminum clutch, and massive 3.8" Havok wheels with Terrahex tires, giving it the unmistakable stance and performance Savage trucks are known for.

Once assembled and equipped with your chosen power system, the Savage XL Nitro SBK becomes a roaring, high‑torque monster capable of huge jumps, rugged terrain, and classic nitro sound and smoke.
