About Agama

What it stands for

Agama says its N1 realised a "revolutionary design concept" built around an "incredibly low COG (Centre of Gravity)."6 It says "Maintenance has been a key consideration," and that its engineers set out to make it fast and "the easiest car to work on in its class."2,6

Known for

A race program with top drivers. European 1/10 champion Michal Orlowski joined Nemo Racing in 2021 to drive the A319P, A319EP and A215T.8 Lee Martin raced the pre-production N1 at international events including the World Championship.2

Product portfolio

The N1 is a 1/8 competition buggy kit, built by the owner, in a nitro version and an electric N1E version. The N1 uses lay-down shocks, part of a layout built for a low center of gravity.6 The line has since added the N2 and N2e 1/8 buggies and the N110, a 1/10 2WD electric buggy kit.4,5,7
