2024 Traxxas Rustler® XL-5

Traxxas Rustler® sits low and wide for maximum high-speed stability and cornering speed. The short wheelbase and lightweight chassis provide quick steering response for an agile feel not found on other trucks. Rustler dominates dirt tracks and tears up the tarmac with a blistering 35+ MPH* top speed. Traxxas’ waterproof electronics let you live out your wildest off-road adventures blasting though puddles, slinging mud, and shredding snow. Rustler delivers power-sliding, full-throttle fun in a Ready-to-Race® package backed by Traxxas’ legendary innovation and toughness.

  • Battery and Charger Included!

Rustler includes a powerful 8.4 volt 3000 mAh Traxxas Power Cell rechargeable NiMH battery pack to reach its 35+ mph top speed.
