These are two very different types of RC vehicles. The LaTrax is a desert prerunner, meaning it's designed to go off-road in desert or sandy conditions. The Traxxas X-Maxx is a monster truck, meaning it's designed for more rough terrain, like mud or dirt. Both are 4WD and come with a charger, but the Traxxas X-Maxx has an additional 4S 6700mAh battery.
