Italeri ITA3926 3926 Model kit, Black Set, 1:72

The Iveco Turbostar was a major commercial success for the Italian manufacturer. Thanks to its characteristics such as strength, reliability and performance, it achieved a significant position in the European truck market and in the late 80s was the most widely used industrial vehicle in Italy, offered in numerous versions and with different equipment to meet the specific transport needs of users. The version with the tarpaulin was one of the most common versions that could ensure great flexibility in transporting all types of goods. Another big advantage of the Iveco 190.42 was the loading capacity compared to the overall dimensions. The payload/size ratio of the 190.42 was an important factor in fulfilling transport tasks outside the highways and even in smaller urban areas. Often the tarpaulin version has been equipped with a hydraulic rear platform to facilitate loading and unloading. The Turbostar had considerable commercial success thanks to the two-axle "road tractor", which became a reference point for road transport in the 1980s. The wide range of engines available also ensured that the vehicle could perform its duties in the industry exceptionally well on all routes. Among the many versions produced, the famous 190.48 was equipped with a 480 hp engine that delivered impressive performance. Safety Warning Warning: not suitable for children under 14 years.
