The **DCR-02** (Japanese: DCRデクロス-02, *Dekurosu Zero-tsū*, pronounced as 'Decross Zero Two') is a Mini 4WD PRO car that was released on December 22, 2018.

It was designed by Takayuki Yamazaki of pdc\_designworks.

## General info

The DCR-02 features the futuristic, low-height open-wheel body design, with long thin front nose, wide rear fenders and the rear multi-flaps spoiler.

Just like the DCR-01, it features the Cross System bodyshell and any of them can be swapped for other color parts. Unlike DCR-01, the cockpit is part of the rear cowl, meaning that the recreation of the open-top bodyshell is impossible. Part of the bodyshell components can be combines with any of the DCR series bodyshell parts to create unique body styles.

Despite being a module-like bodyshell, it was designed to be race-ready as it has the front and side air intakes, thus allowing better heat dissipation for the motor and batteries.

### Standard variant

The standard variant has the yellow body color with white/black stripes, carbon patterns and green cockpit.

It was equipped with the gun metal, small diameter low-profile Y-spoke wheels paired with the black low-profile tires. Its chassis frame and A parts were molded in gun metal and yellow respectively.

### Fluorescent Green Special

The Fluorescent Green Special features the fluorescent green bodyshell with silver cockpit.

It was equipped with the silver plated, small diameter low-profile Y-spoke wheels paired with the green hard-compound low-profile tires. Its chassis frame and A parts were molded in white and green respectively.

### Clear Black Special

The Japan Cup-exclusive Clear Black Special variant featuring the black smoke bodyshell.

It was equipped with the matte pink plated, small diameter low-profile Y-spoke wheels paired with the black super-hard low-profile tires. The chassis and A parts were molded in clear purple and white respectively.
