LEGO Technic Audi RS Q e-tron 42160 – Remote-Controlled Racer for Ages 10+

Experience the thrill of engineering with LEGO Technic Audi RS Q e-tron 42160

This advanced building kit invites young builders to recreate the high-performance Dakar rally model in a highly authentic LEGO Technic form. With 914 pieces, it offers a rewarding construction journey for kids 10 years and up who enjoy cars, engineering, and hands-on play. The finished model isn’t just a display piece—it’s a functioning remote-controlled car that blends real-world design with creative imagination.

Two core ways to bring the model to life are built right in: remote control and app-assisted steering. The CONTROL+ app lets kids drive forwards and backwards and steer the car, transforming the build into an interactive engineering playground. The project also mirrors real-world details, including a newly designed Technic wheel and four independent suspensions, making the model feel substantial and true to the original Audi RS Q e-tron racing machine.

Key features that engage curious minds

• Electric rally replica – A faithful Technic version of Audi RS Q e-tron that introduces core engineering concepts in a kid-friendly way.
• Remote control with app support – Control forward/backward movement and steering via the CONTROL+ app, then switch to playtime or testing mode anytime.
• Faithful realism – The set includes a new Technic wheel design and accurate detailing drawn from the real Dakar racer.
• Independent suspension – Each of the four wheels has its own suspension, adding a layer of technical realism to the build and play.
• Gift for young engineers – A thoughtful present for car lovers and Audi fans, suitable for birthdays or special occasions.

Beyond assembly, the LEGO Builder app adds a helpful layer to the experience. Builders can zoom in, rotate models, and track progress as they work through the 914-piece challenge. This combination of tactile building and digital interaction makes the project approachable while still offering a challenge for growing engineers.

What you gain when you build and play

• Hands-on insight into mechanical details through a realistic four-wheel suspension and authentic wheel design.
• Opportunities to practice problem solving, planning, and spatial reasoning as pieces click together the right way.
• Flexibility to switch from focused building to interactive RC play, using the app-based steering and driving features.
• A visually striking, gift-worthy set that can spark ongoing curiosity about engineering and automotives.
