I think you are seeing the major manufactures slowly entering the 1/8th scale electric market. By using already designed chassis they can cut down on tooling costs, making test parts for the whole vehicle, etc.... They can explore the market while minimizing their risk. If nobody buys their product they can re-stock the parts as nitro inventory.

I am pleased to see them taking the first step though. As the popularity grows I am willing to bet you will see more manufacturers jump into the fray with new designs. We all know the saying "If you build it, they will come", LOL. Well, we have built them, it should be fun to watch them come to 1/8 electric.
