New Savage X will be announced at the Nuremberg Toy Fair.
Supposedly an all new design, still TVP based with LCG, easy access to diffs for maintenance and 3 speed. Same basher with slight race focus, bring on the revos! Pics are said to be posted up on HPIs site in the very near future.
Here are the rumored specs:
2 Channel Radio
Shorter Antenna Wire (50cm compared to 100cm). Modified Crystal placement for a more reliable centered receiver.
New Roto Start
New more durable case, with circuit breaker overload protection
New Body (GT-2)
Wider, more aggressive body, new graphics, and color
All Right Hand Thread Wheel Nuts
No more Right and Left handed Thread Wheel Nuts, making it more convenient.
All new 4.1 Engine
New crankcase design makes for more consistent temperature. Upgrade to cylinder, piston, connecting rod and crankshaft produces more power.
Easy to Access the Differentials in the Front and Rear Gear Boxes
This gear box has been designed to allow for easier maintenance with simplified access to parts. Only six screws have to be removed to access the front or rear diff without dismantling the main chassis or suspension.
Easy to Access the Radio Box
Easily removed top cover for quick maintenance. Does not use body pin. More space inside radio box, room for failsafe and a knockout for a battery Indicator and for an optional charging jack.
Easy to Access the Center Gear Box
Only six screws have to be removed to remove top of center gear box, without dismantling the chassis. It makes maintenance easier for spur gear and 2 speed/3speed gear box. It also has an extra hole for adjustment of 1-2 shift on the 3 speed.
Lower CG TVP Chassis
Engine, center gear box, radio box is 5mm lower than 25 RTR, It make lower center of gravity for better handling. New design TVP's also help protect the fuel tank.

Three position Shock Tower
More shock positions for suspension tuning
Height capacity Slipper Clutch System
Extra capacity dual slipper clutch for minimum drive train damage.
