Like its bigger brother, the Venture18 combines a tough formed steel C-channel chassis with a realistic suspension and drivetrain. Despite its compact size, this truck is packed with impressive features, including a new all-metal 2-speed transmission, 4-link front and rear suspension, and universal telescopic counter-rotating driveshafts. With authentically scaled oil-filled shock absorbers and full-time locked differentials, the Venture18 offers dependable handling in all off-road conditions.
The Venture18 also marks the return of officially licensed Toyota products to the HPI Racing lineup.

The body is prepainted and also features clear windows, plus scale accents like Toyota emblems, front grill, door handles, wipers, functional mirrors, plus tube-style bumpers and rollbars for an impressive level of realism. The fitted LED light kit enhances the authenticity even further, giving the Venture18 that extra layer of detail that truly stands out!

It’s more than just a toy – it’s a vehicle for freedom, fun, and the spirit of adventure.
Gear up, hit the trails, and let your adVenture begin!
The officially licensed Toyota Hilux SR5 body included with the Venture18 RTR is completely outfitted with a range of fabulous scale items. In addition to the hand-painted polycarbonate body with clear windows, you'll find a host of scale details including a pair of real side mirrors, door handles, grills, classic tube bumpers front and rear, light buckets for the working lights, dual-tube rollbar and adjustable-width rock rails that help the truck glide over tough obstacles.
The Venture18 comes with a meticulously crafted, fully detailed body that’s designed to impress. The scale rollbars enhance the SR5’s rugged look and also features 4 removable rollbar lights for amazing realism and style. This perfectly complements the overall body design, ensuring your Venture18 stands out in any setting.
For those who want to take it to the next level, the rollbar lights can have extra optional LED lights installed, which will plug straight into the standard light controller, allowing you to have dramatically more illumination for driving in total darkness!
Say goodbye to the hassle of traditional body clips! The Venture18 Clipless Body Mounting System offers a seamless, secure, and efficient solution for mounting and removing body. Designed for ease of use and built to last, this system eliminates the need for messy clips that can get lost or break during extended trailing sessions. With a single twist-lock mechanism and a rear hinge, you’ll enjoy quick access to the chassis and effortless battery swaps, making your Venture18 experience smoother and more enjoyable than ever.
The Venture18, features a fully functional LED light set that’s directly controllable from your transmitter!
The Venture18 offers 5 distinct light modes out of the box, all easily cycled through with a simple push of a button on the transmitter. From Day Mode, to Dusk to Night Mode for full illumination, the Venture18 has you covered in any lighting condition.
The brake lights illuminate automatically when the brakes are used and signal lights can also be Off, On or in flashing Hazard modes.
The Venture 18 is fitted with 1.2" Rockthorn tires molded in sticky rubber, just like the 1.9” version. Each tire is studded with a variety of lug sizes across its face, and the tread extends to the sidewall to help get the Venture18 get over extra-difficult obstacles like mossy rocks and slick tree roots. The tires are mounted on great-looking chrome finished CS-10 1.2 inch 3-piece beadlock "Steely" wheels, which themselves feature center hub caps that hide the steel wheel locknuts for maximum scale realism. Whether you're navigating through rocky obstacles or conquering tight spots, the Venture18 trail truck delivers hours of fun and excitement.
Robust side bars, known as rock sliders or rock rails, allow the Venture18 to slide over obstacles that are just a bit too tall for it to completely clear. Stretching from the front to rear wheel openings, they serve to aid off-road performance as well as protect the body from scratches by ground obstacles like rocks and roots. Although they are the perfect fit for the Toyota Hilux SR5 body out of the box, they can be adjusted in width to fit other scaler bodies.
The Venture18 features counter-rotating telescopic center driveshafts with universal joints at both ends for super-smooth power transmission to the front and rear axles. This virtually eliminates torque-twist on the chassis when the truck is powering up tough inclines!
The Venture18 is equipped with an all-metal, servo-operated 2-speed transmission, designed for superior performance and durability. With the flick of a switch on the transmitter, you can effortlessly switch between low and high gears, giving you the flexibility to tackle any terrain with ease.
Low Gear boasts an impressive final drive ratio of 81.44:1, providing exceptional slow-speed crawling capabilities for those tight, technical trails and obstacles. And when you need a burst of speed on a flat, open section - or just need a wild amount of power to get up a climb! - simply shift to High Gear on the transmitter for a final drive ratio of 20.36:1, offering a blast of speed!
Built with an all-metal transmission design, the driveline is not only incredibly tough and brushless-ready but also features a super-low center of gravity. The driveshafts are composite slider-style shafts with universal joints at each end, where they meet the transmission case and axle. At the axles, metal 11-tooth pinions and 28-tooth ring gears (for an axle ratio of 2.54:1) sit inside the "pumpkin", or center, of the axles. This helps enhance stability and balance, allowing the Venture18 to conquer even the most challenging lines and obstacles with confidence.
The Venture18 chassis is loaded with potential, making it extremely versatile on the trail and up tough climbing routes. Its capability lies in several factors, including off-road friendly clearance angles from the tire contact points to the bumpers and chassis, as well as good ground clearance thanks to its minimal diff case size.
