Technical Performance
The Slash 4X4 VXL represents a genuine performance machine with engineering that reflects decades of Traxxas racing pedigree. The Velineon® 3500kV brushless motor is a sensorless design that delivers responsive acceleration and impressive top speed exceeding 60 mph, making this one of the fastest ready to run short course trucks available to UK buyers. Paired with the VXL-3S ESC, this powertrain is compatible with 3-cell LiPo batteries (3S), offering excellent power-to-weight efficiency. The motor produces the torque needed for rapid acceleration and hill climbing, whilst the brushless design eliminates carbon brush maintenance and extends component lifespan.
The drivetrain utilises a shaft-driven 4WD system with an 11.82:1 overall drive ratio, delivering power to all four wheels through hardened steel bevel differentials with limited slip and sealed construction. This engineering ensures smooth, reliable power delivery without wheel spin, particularly important when launching hard or navigating loose terrain. The suspension features long-travel shocks front and rear (3.45 inches front, 3.98 inches rear), providing the bump absorption needed for smooth riding over obstacles and jumps. With a wheelbase of 12.75 inches (324 mm), generous ground clearance of 2.83 inches (72 mm), and a wide track of 11.65 inches (296 mm) front and rear, the chassis geometry is optimised for stable cornering, consistent jump landings, and confident high-speed driving.
Build quality throughout the Slash 4X4 VXL is exceptional. The modular composite chassis tub resists damage whilst remaining lightweight, the factory-installed Extreme Heavy Duty Upgrade Kit replaces key components with stronger alternatives, and the clipless body mounting system uses reinforced panels instead of fragile clips. The overall weight of 5.82 pounds (2.64 kg) without battery provides excellent power-to-weight ratio, whilst the truck's 23.36-inch length (568 mm) and 7.60-inch height (193 mm) give it genuine presence on track. Every component has been selected for durability and performance, from the waterproof digital servo delivering 125 oz-in torque to the BFGoodrich tyres mounted on robust 2.2-inch wheels.
