For RC truck enthusiasts and scale model collectors, few things are as exciting as recreating legendary trucks in 1/14 scale. Two standout models capture this spirit perfectly: the Scania T143 Medium Roof Van der Heuvel Edition and the Scania Next Torpedo. Both represent iconic pieces of Scania history, now brought to life for your RC fleet.
The Scania T143 Medium Roof – A 90’s Classic
The Scania 143 series has become a true classic among European trucks. Known for its power, durability, and unmistakable torpedo styling, it remains one of the most admired Scania models of the 1990s.
Our 1/14 scale Scania T143 Medium Roof kit allows you to build this legend in miniature detail. The kit includes the complete cab, hood, and detailing parts – designed for compatibility with Tamiya 1/14 chassis (modifications required). With a required chassis length of 548 mm, and precise axle distances (222 mm front to 1st rear, 103 mm between rear axles), the included PDF drilling template makes installation straightforward.
What sets this edition apart is its medium roof design, which adds extra character compared to the Low Roof version. And for even greater authenticity, separate fenders are available to complete the build.
The Scania Next Torpedo – Modern Power in Scale
While the T143 represents the golden era of the past, the Scania Next Torpedo embodies modern trucking innovation. With its bold torpedo nose and sleek Next-gen cabin, this model is an instant favorite among today’s Scania fans.
The 1/14 Next Torpedo kit lets you transform your RC truck into this modern powerhouse. Just like the T143, the kit includes the full cab and bonnet set, built to fit Tamiya’s 1/14 scale chassis with accurate modifications. With detailed proportions and the unmistakable Scania nose, it’s a centerpiece for any RC collection.
