[Supercar form with three sharp points]
The fourth release of Mini 4WD PRO, using the MA chassis, which is also popular in Mini 4WD racing, is the Trigale. The form, which is based on the image of a supercar, is characterized by three sharp points that join the tips of the left and right fenders and the nose, just like the name "TRI" which stands for three. The large canopy narrows sharply towards the rear, and conversely, the left and right rear fenders jut out greatly, so three independent shapes can be seen at the rear as well. In addition, the stickers that tighten up the edgy shape are metallic in tone. The nose and cockpit sides have carbon patterns to enhance the racing mood. In addition, the rear wing set lower than the roof asserts that it is a high-speed machine. 26mm low-profile tires are set on silver fin-design wheels.

[MA chassis that pursues driving efficiency]
MA stands for Midship AERO (midship aero) stands for "Aerodynamics". The "MS chassis" has a midship layout with a double shaft motor mounted in the center of the body, while the "AR chassis" is designed with particular consideration for airflow (aerodynamics) while driving. The "MA chassis" combines the excellent features of each into one chassis. Of course, taking advantage of the racing know-how accumulated so far, the MA chassis has been thoroughly refined for driving performance, adopting a 3.5:1 gear ratio, and equipped with six low-friction resin rollers and a rear skid bar as standard. In addition, the adoption of a one-piece monocoque structure has made it easier to assemble and maintain, making it a chassis that can be used by beginners and veteran racers alike, and for a wide range of events, from street corner races on smaller courses to official competitions on large special 5-lane circuits.
