Traxxas has re-released their super-speedy XO-1 SuperCar as a 2014 version with a few new twists. While still being able to hit the 100mph mark and now sporting 4 fresh now paint options, the biggest change is that the XO-1 doesn’t come with batteries any more. This omission allows the customer to purchase whatever batteries they’d like and helps drop the price to a more reasonable level.
