The Tamiya 1/48 Kübelwagen Type 82 (32501) reproduces the most iconic German military light car of WWII in the compact 1/48 scale. The Kübelwagen's combination of simplicity, reliability, and reasonable cross-country performance on the VW platform made it the German answer to the Willys Jeep — and in many respects a superior vehicle on roads and firm ground. It served in every theatre from the Arctic to North Africa and remained in production until the end of the war.
The classic German staff car in its most convenient scale.
