CEN RACING 2025 M-SPORT FORD CEN9001

This is a 1/8 scale, ready-to-run rally car dressed in an officially licensed M-Sport Ford Puma Rally1 livery, aimed at drivers who want the same white works look as the full-size WRC car without building a chassis from scratch. It's a genuine 4WD brushless RTR with all-weather sealed electronics, so it can be driven hard on gravel or loose surfaces straight out of the box, though you'll need to add your own battery and charger before the first run.

About the CEN Racing 2025 M-Sport Ford Puma Rally1

CEN Racing's 2025 M-Sport Ford Puma Rally1 is a 1/8 scale, ready-to-run rally car carrying an officially licensed body and livery from the WRC-entered M-Sport team, built to be driven on loose surfaces rather than smooth tarmac.

It runs on a 3mm aluminium chassis with aluminium shock towers and an arm brace, driving all four wheels full-time through metal transmission gears and a 6-gear bevel differential. Big-bore, oil-filled coil-over shocks with adjustable turnbuckles and a wheelbase adjustable by ±6mm give some scope to tune the handling for different surfaces, and the whole car is built to an all-weather, waterproof/dustproof standard rather than needing to be kept dry.

Power comes from CEN Racing's own 3658 3000KV sensorless brushless motor through a 100A waterproof ESC, running on 2-3S LiPo or 6-9 cell NiMH packs that aren't included, with five acceleration levels and nine brake-force settings to dial in the throttle feel. It's quick, and rally-specific enough in its suspension and drivetrain, that it suits drivers with some RC experience who specifically want a rally car rather than a general basher, and gravel or loose-surface courses will make more sense of it than a smooth car park.
