Appears to be an updated stampede 4x4 with a rustler 4x4 chassis.

With the maxx 4s in existence... kind of surprised they are re-upping the stampede 4x4.

Side by side of the 4 trucks on the same platform makes it a bit easier to compare them.

It's rustler sized but HCG. I don't think I've seen a rustler 4x4 in person.

It's narrower/shorter than the stampede 4x4 according to those measurements. I have my stampede a bit wider with 6mm offset hubs and it's still pretty tippy.

I have a 4074 2200kv/blx185 150A esc in mine, but still just run it on 3S with 54/20 and it's a handful at speed. Can't imagine the vxl-3s will be able to gear much beyond 14/54 without overheating, even with a 3670 2400kv motor.

Just the same, nice to see they are cranking out updated products.
 
Looks kind of like a max/stampede. Good looking truck, count me in...;)
 
Prefer Traxxas over Arrma fed up with Fixing the Senton every time it tumbles
