A mini 4WD is a 1/32 scale or 1:32-sized[1] AA battery powered plastic model race car without remote control.
All 4 rubber-tired wheels are driven, thus "4WD" for 4 wheel drive.
Side rollers secure the vehicle against the vertical walls of the
un-banked track for steering, providing very fast speeds compared to slot or RC cars.
In Japan, Mini 4WD is also known as mini yonku (ミニ四駆) in Japanese.[2] Though mostly popular in Asia, they have also been sold in the United States.
Mini 4WD was first created by the Japanese company Tamiya
in 1982 as a powered variant of common plastic automobile model kits.
Since then racing and tuning up mini 4WD cars have become a hobby for people across the world.[3]
