12V Licensed Mercedes-Benz SL Kids Ride On Car with Dual 25W Motors, Battery Indicator and Parent Remote, 66 lb, White

White with silver wheels

A long bonnet, a short tail and a black seat under a roll hoop. In white the moulded body creases and the chrome look grille read more clearly than on the darker shells.

The drive

A 12V 4.5Ah rechargeable battery and two 25W motors, published at 1.2 to 1.9 mph. Two motors is what gets a car moving from standing on a slightly rough driveway rather than spinning one wheel.

Who it fits

3 to 8 years and a 66 lb load capacity of the seat, both on the maker's own panel. That upper figure is what makes the eight year end of the band plausible rather than optimistic.

Eight things on the dash

Light, music, one button start, high speed, low speed, wireless connection, radio and a battery indicator. The shifter lever and the foot pedal handle the rest, and the horn is on the wheel. Every one of them is within reach of a seated child, which is the point of putting them on a single panel.

An SL R231 shape with the three pointed star on the grille and the wheels.

A published range slower than an adult walks, from dual 25W motors.

Speed, direction and brake. Two AAA cells, not included.

Power builds and falls away rather than switching on and off.

Radio stations, a wireless connection, music, a horn and volume.

A charge readout on the dashboard beside the one button start.

Ships from a Canadian warehouse. Free shipping on orders over $150. Some remote areas, PO boxes and surcharge regions may be excluded or cost extra.

Return within 14 days of purchase, unused, in original condition and packaging.

Covered directly by the manufacturer under their warranty terms for material and manufacturing defects.

A battery indicator on the dashboard turns the charge state into something you can see before you load the car into the boot.

The maker's band, with a 66 lb seat load capacity that covers most children inside it. The rearview mirrors rotate, so they survive being pushed against a wall in storage.

1.2 to 1.9 mph with a soft start and stop, and three remote levels for an adult to pick from.

What we stand behind

• Speed, age band, seat load capacity, motor and battery ratings are the manufacturer's published figures.
• The manufacturer states this is a licensed Mercedes-Benz SL R231 design.
• CPC CPSIA and ASTM badges appear on the maker's own panel. No certificate number is published, and we do not assert the certification ourselves.
• No run time, charge time, overall dimensions or remote control range is published.
• A toy for supervised play on private property. Never on a road, a sidewalk or a bike path.

How do you know the charge level?

A battery indicator sits on the dashboard, beside the one button start and the speed buttons.

What age and weight is it for?

3 to 8 years, with a stated seat load capacity of 66 lb.

What are the two driving modes?

Manual driving with a steering wheel, shifter lever and foot pedal, or a parent remote with three speed levels, direction and a brake.

Is it certified?

The manufacturer prints CPC CPSIA and ASTM badges on its own panel. No certificate number is published, so we repeat the claim rather than make it.
